Food Getaway: Bagnet House

I am back. I am definitely back! 

No, this is not a drama or a film of some sort. I am back to blogging again after a very long time of hiatus. Motherhood took its toll in me and I don't know if I am having post-partum depression again or what. I just feel that I have so a lot of things in my hand. Anyhow, I cleared my mind and my body now to give way to more hectic times ahead. I need to multi-multi-multitask to achieve more of my goals. (Yeah, that's a triple multi because it's a lot!)


So this weekend, I once again opened my schedule, (and my hubby as well) to give way to another invite I can't declined. (Hi sis Arms! Haha) It’s an invite from the newest resto in the area, the Bagnet House. It is situated in front of Maligaya 168 in San Fernando, and caters the yummiest bagnet and pizza. 

Bagnet House is a mini-resto that can cater around 30-40 person. The place provides a homey feel to it. The place may be a bit small but the service was superb. All the staff were friendly, including the owner Miss Rowena. She discussed some details on how they conceptualized the resto. 



Their business started when they ventured into food park. She kept herself busy while her husband was outside the country. Later on, they decided to rent up a space to go all out with their biz. Since she had experience in tasting authentic Ilokano bagnet, she then decided to do it on their menu alongside with some home-made pizza which you will surely love. 

Their selection of dishes were all superb. Upon serving the food though, I discovered they have a different take on offering their menu.  You have to dip the bagnet in your choice of sauce. You can choose between kare-kare, spicy gata or binagoongan. I was used in ordering it as one dish, no dipping needed, Bagnet and the sauce mixed altogether. Bagnet House however, has a different take on that. And I think I like theirs better. Why? It's because I get to feel the crunch of the bagnet before dipping it or I can simply have the option to eat it freely as plain. Gosh! It was so crunchy that I opted to eat it in solo than dipping it. 

Spicy Gata Bagnet - P349.00

Kare-Kare Bagnet - P349.00


Aside from bagnet, their thin crust pizzas are the bomb! No wasted piece of pizza. They have Hawaiian flavour, which is loaded with pineapples, ham and cheese. It's not the traditional Hawaiian type you eat outside. I prefer this than those commercial ones. They also have the Bagnet Sisig Pizza which of course tasted like sisig but it has a different twist because of the cheese in it. Their Shawarma Pizza which was a fave of mine because of it's generous serving of meat and vegetables with the mayo and lots of onions on top. There’s also the Cheezy Garlic Pizza which is an absolute favorite. I was actually the one who finished this variant because of the power of the different cheeses tasted really heavenly! The pizzas were all perfect especially if you partner it with their special chili oil sauce, They mixed olive oil and shredded chili on it and perfected its boling process. 

Cheesy Garlic - P270.00

Pepperoni - P270.00


Shawarma Pizza- P270.00

Hawaiian Pizza - P270.00

For drinks, they have house blend iced tea which was really sour at first but its taste eventually changed when the ice on the drink melts. You will get to appreciate the taste after quite some time though. Our palate was just familiar with sugary drinks that’s why this iced tea will break the classic iced tea type. They used muscovado sugar in it too.


Overall, the place was great if you’re looking for affordable bagnet recipes without breaking the bank. Their pizza selection was superb too. Soon, they will have more dish added to their menu and they are also planning to create promos for the holiday season. Come and try them out!

  1. My goodness, that cheesy garlic pizza looks and sounds absolutely amazing. Anytime you can combine two of my favorite things (pizza and garlic)...you've got me sold instantly!

  2. The food looks really delicious! I like that the pizza has a very thin crust, this way you can enjoy the topping more. This is my favorite type of pizza. I didn't hear about shawarma pizza before but I can imagine it's delicious. I used to eat a lot of shawarmas back in my home country as they were so delicious, perfect for a lunch on the go. The bagnet sounds delicious as well, especially that it is so crispy.

  3. This looks like a cozy place when one can enjoy eating the food. Those pizzas are an absolute hit it seems. They truly look amazing and delicious and I love the fact that they add garlic. But my first choice would be bagnet since I have actually never tried that dish before. I wonder how it tastes?

  4. The food choices are very wide and price range is affordable! But, it's the first time that I've glanced and looked at a shawarma pizza. It looks promising and now, I want to find a pizza like that here in Manila. Also, I like how they fixed their place!

    1. Shawarma pizza has been a hit here in Pampanga. I think it is just common here. even sisig pizza also is a thing here since we are known for sisig.

  5. Everything seems yummy on that table. I, for one, couldnt even resist the invitation to eat a few bagnet and pizza. Even the drinks appear so refreshing. But the best part is, eating with chika is best when shared with loved ones.

  6. Reading this post without eating lunch was a huge mistake -- I am so hungry and craving for Bagnet Sisig Pizza.

    Unfortunately, we dont have one here available in Bacolod. Hope they branch out all over the country soon.

  9. First of all , welcome back to blogging !
    I guess I can aptly name this as "Putok Batok" resto hehe.. I love Bagnet but I never thought that this Ilocano dish can be so versatile! The Bagnet kare kare sounds really great as well as the bagnet pizza. I think i should bring my mom's blood pressure monitor when visiting this place haha

    1. Bagnet places here in Pampanga is slowly growing like mushrooms I only go there when there's an invite. It would be dangerous to dubbed it as our fave resto.

  11. Those seem yummy. Knowing my partner Lloyd, he would love to fill his hands and mouth with those bagnet. It's interesting that the dip for it is also different from usual. As for me, I prefer the cheesy garlic pizza. Thanks for sharing.
