We had our lunch in Pananayan Canteen and Catering Services which is located in Morong Beach. The day before we visited the restaurant, they had fire which engulf all of their kitchen. But even though the tragic incident happened, they served all of their customers well.
The owners of Pananayan Pension House and Pananayan Canteen and Catering Services are just the same.
