Cafe Yagam

Baguio


With its hardwood floors, big stone fireplace, acoustic music on the stereo and frogs outside chirping along in time, this is the kind of place that entices you to chill out for hours. Its Kalinga owner serves specialities from the region, including dark, thick coffee, sweet inachila (sticky rice with grated coconut) and other mains from the Cordillera (P110 to P200).
