Please call 843-6673 or 843-3721 to inquire about the piayas. I am currently out of the country and am no longer up-to-date with the business’ prices (the last time I was home it was PhP6.00 or PhP6.25 per piece, I think. But if you have any questions please post it here and I will make a point to check this site once in a while. You should also ask about our other specialties… empanada and fresh lumpia, Ilonggo style (the garlic sauce is inside the lumpia, and not poured on top of it). Thanks.

I came upon this site by accident. My family makes the piaya from Bacolod. We are the Bailons, and the recipe came from my grandfather who has passed away. We have brought the business to Manila as well.

If this is the piaya you remember, please send me an email and I will give you our phone numbers: Thin, crisp, airy, toasted brown with sesame seeds. Thin coating of muzcovado inside. As you bite into it it is crispy, and becomes more chewy as you go along.

Thanks.

HI MM

This post brings back memories of Bacolod and Silay. I just bought boxes upon boxes of Merci’s Bacolod Piaya. I was attracted to the beautiful design and was told they commissioned a local artist to draw it.

The piayas really hit a soft spot in my heart.

juls, I go to the Negros fair EVERY YEAR. Problem is, I have been out of town since Friday until a minute or so ago. I will try to hit the fair tomorrow before it closes Tuesday. I have to get me some batwan to try… thanks for the reminder…

BAILON’S PIAYA IS THE BEST! so paper thin parang crust and the muscovado is not chewy but brittle cuz of the thinness… very nice and wet inside when microwaved!!!
