REVIEW
“Dulang” refers to the set of foods served to guests during traditional
celebrations in the islands of Basilan, Sulu, Tawi-Tawi and Zamboanga
Peninsula. Dulang can also mean the
golden or silver tray with intricate designs where those foods are served.
Dulang Restaurant started as a catering service in Zamboanga City
and now became a Halal restaurant owned by a Muslim family. Their first and
main establishment is in Zamboanga City and the Manila Branch in Ermita was
officially established in 2013. They serve delicious Tausūg and Malaysian foods
at an affordable price. They offer discounted “Budget Meals” which include a
cup of rice, one meat viand (choose from chicken or beef) and a vegetable side
dish with free soup. The Tiyula’ Itum (black
soup), the trademark recipe of the Tausūgs,
is their specialty. They also serve by-order Mi-Goreng and other noodles from Malaysia. Their Tausūg Kahawa (native coffee) is also a
favourite by most costumers partnering it with hot and tasty Tausūg delicacies
like wadjit, apam, tabid-tabid, durul,
patulakan, or putli’ mandi.
The place has a welcoming
ambiance with chatty servers. People who came from or at least have visited the
ZamBaSulTa area would certainly feel at home as most costumers will be speaking
in their local dialects.
Dulang is also a few blocks away
from Robinsons Manila, Philippine General Hospital and various Travel Agencies
in Ermita. A few walk to spend a relaxing afternoon after an exhausting day at
work. The only downside with Dulang
is their small area, no accessible comfort room and limited parking nearby.
