Iloilo’s Original Biscocho Haus
One of the few yet popular bakeshop and pasalubong stores in Iloilo City is the Biscocho Haus. Over half a dozen branches spread all over Iloilo catering to travellers and tourists, the Original Biscocho Haus has survived the test and taste of time.
The Biscocho bakeshop has been there for decades and it hasn’t changed much. Their stores are almost always packed with people buying Ilonggo delicacies from butterscotch, barquillos, piyaya, banana marble, and of course the ever famous biscocho (toasted bread coated with milk and sugar).
One of the older and bigger shops can be found in the district of Jaro, just across the road from Jaro Plaza and Cathedral. If you are in a hurry for your flight, you can get some of them at the Iloilo Airport itself.
SM and Gaisano supermarkets may also have them but they might not be as freshly baked as the ones you buy from the main branch.

Biscocho Haus started out as a homey snack place under the shade of a tree. They served home-cooked spaghetti with the biscocho as partner.Their dinuguan was also very delicious. Good thing is they still serve these up to now.
