About this spot

La Paz is the birthplace of batchoy, the rich noodle soup of pork, liver, crushed chicharon and round egg noodles in a deep broth, created in this market in the 1930s. Netong's, inside the La Paz Public Market, is one of the most-loved original stalls among locals and visitors, alongside rivals like Ted's and Deco's. Slurp it at the counter and ask for extra broth.
