We started enjoying NELIA'S special halo-halo nearly three decades ago. We loved that they cooked the native sweets themselves so these were always just right. Coming from my Dad's house in Concepcion, we sometimes make a side trip to Tinajeros before going home to Potrero, just to have a glass. Other times, my husband drops by NELIA'S for take-out, so we can enjoy their halo-halo at home. I've spent many contented moments relaxing on the sofa while enjoying this treat - that it is easily high on my list of comfort food.

NELIA'S Halo-Halo was established in 1960 and it was named after the late Nelia Ramos. Her husband Virgilio still runs the original NELIA'S in Malabon, along with a branch they've put up in Boracay. NELIA'S also serves pancit and lugaw.
