“Pan Bisaya”

— it is the most popular bread in the City of Escalante, Negros Occidental and in some northern parts of Negros.

🥖If you have not tried it yet, the Pan Bisaya is a native bread with a sweet coconut filling. What makes it famous and patronized by the people is its unique and delicious taste created by a traditional and special way of baking. The bread is baked in a makeshift oven called “Hornohan” which is composed of empty cans of cooking oil. Dried coconut husks are burned to produce heat.

🥖 What makes this bread even more special is the story of its famous baker, Mrs. Victoria F. Dayday, also known as “Vicki”, a 51-year old mother of six from Brgy. Old Poblacion, Escalante City, Negros Occidental. The knowledge and skill of making the pan bisaya originally came from her late grandmother in Calatrava, Negros Occidental who eventually handed it down to her mother.

🥖 The pan bisaya is always on the table in parties, simple gatherings or any activities in offices and schools in Escalante City. Every mornings and afternoons, the native bread is the crave of the Escalantehanon. Coffee, tea, juice or soft drinks are always best when paired with the pan bisaya.
