Cagayan de Oro Gastronomy — From Nightclubs to Floating Seafood
Cagayan de Oro is the gateway city to northern Mindanao and the home of kinilau and sinuglau (grilled fish mixed with raw fish). On weekend nights, the entire street of Divisoria Night Cafe becomes an outdoor dining area. Getting around the city center by Grab or motarella (local jeepney) is essential, and cash (pesos) is required at street stalls and markets.
