Espetada - House of the Hanging Chicken

There is something about grilled or barbecued meat that we Filipinos simply love. Whether you have it in a restaurant or along the street, the savory divine taste of barbecue pork is so hard to resist. If you don’t eat or like pork, you could very well go for Barbecue Chicken instead as they are seasoned similarly.

At Espetada House, we'll serve you something a bit different from what you traditionally find in our local barbecue but still you will surely enjoy.

So what is Espetada you may ask. It is a Portuguese dish made usually of large chunks of beef rubbed in garlic and salt, skewered onto a bay leaf stick. To put it in simpler term, Espetada is meat on a stick - the Portuguese way. Soaked for 24 hours in a special marinade and basted in authentic peri peri sauce, spicy food lovers will surely be challenged by our Espetada Chicken, Seafood and Beef.
