Restaurant Profile
A TASTE OF HISTORY AT CAMALIG
You can’t really say you’ve seen Angeles (in the Philippines) unless you’ve been to Camalig—that quaintly old world, fiercely Filipino, trendy turn-of-the-century heritage resto right at the heart of the metropolis.
Located on bustling Sto. Rosario Street (See Map), the old camalig (“shed” in the Kapampangan vernacular) is truly a “must-see” for both residents and tourists as it is one of the city’s few surviving legacy structures that has withstood the twin ravages of time and modernization, having been adaptively reused for commerce long before heritage preservation in business was in vogue.
Imagine, if you will, the serenity of antiquity preserved in stately architecture of wood and stone. Picture yourself surrounded by age-old photographs and relics from a bygone Angeles town. Dine amidst the charm and hospitality of old world Filipiniana. Or as Asia Today magazine puts it, “drink in a little of the history of a long-ago Philippine time.”
“The 150-year-old building was inherited by my father (the late Armando L. Nepomuceno) through five generations,” says owner/historian Marc Nepomuceno. “It was in 1980 when he relocated his small pizzeria, Armando’s Pizza (one of the pioneering pizzerias in town, I might add) to the old camalig. That is why Historic Camalig Restaurant is also billed as ‘The Home of Armando’s Pizza: Ang Pambansang Pizza’.”
Along with its celestial crispy-crust creations, Camalig also serves seven native breakfast plates; four al dente pasta dishes; a heavenly fusion of Filipino, American, and Mexican favorites; and a superb selection of beverages.
Denizens, however, swear that it is by night that Camalig is most magical. Because shortly after the sun sets, this veritable hub of heritage and history turns haven to some of the finest rock and retro acts this side of the city. Dig the gig and do it under the stars and dancing. Catch the city’s most promising bands and help yourself to healthy heaping of wholesome happenings.
Live performances are held on most weeknights* at Camalig’s outdoor stage amidst its beautifully landscaped patio where one may drink, dine, and unwind ‘til midnight.
Now for those who simply can’t leave home or work, Camalig delivers within Angeles and Clark, including areas in San Fernando, Mabalacat, Bacolor, and Porac.
