The Road from BANAUE to SAGADA: 
Mount Polis Rolling Coffee Shop and Restaurant

Mount Polis is one of the highest peak in Luzon. It's located in the borders of Ifugao Province and Mountain Province. Banaue is a municipality of the Ifugao Province while Sagada is a municipality of the Mountain Province. So if you're travelling from Banaue to Sagada or vice versa, you will definitely pass Mount Polis. 

It's important to remember that Mount Polis is a good place to stop for meals when you're on the way to Sagada or Banaue. It's 30 minutes away from Banaue and 2 hours away from Sagada.

As you approach Mount Polis, you see the police outpost.

The sign that indicates this is the border between Ifugao Province and Mountain Province

Turo-turo style of food
It's actually the preferred meal style in the provinces because it's already pre-cooked and you can eat immediately.
If you order food in the provinces, you wait at least 1 hour for it to be cooked because they cook if from scratch.


We ate chicken adobo and inihaw na baboy (grilled pork).
Viand with 1 cup of rice costs 80 pesos.
