Floring’s Carinderia first opened in 1972 in Brgy. Ilaures, Bugasong, Antique as a small bamboo structure near a terminal. Established by Florencia Escoton Jalipa, it gained popularity for its native chicken adobo, a dish cooked by Florencia for her husband and his friends. Over time, the carinderia expanded its capacity, serving up to 50 people and preparing 30-40 native chickens daily, with a unique pricing system. The restaurant has been featured in food shows like ABS-CBN’s Magandang Buhay and recognized by the Department of Tourism in 2024 for its contribution to Philippine gastronomy. Floring’s Carinderia continues to thrive with Florencia’s daughters carrying on her legacy. It serves as a popular stop for travelers, supporting the local economy and community development.
