飲食狀況 : 長灘島

飲食狀況

島上除了有當地的傳統餐點外,更有世界各式美食供您自由挑選包括有: 德國、意大利、瑞士、法國、西班牙、印度、泰國、日本、韓國...等,價格更是低廉,以筆者常吃的套餐而言,包括有set lunch、pizza、pasta 等配料在內亦僅在30元港幣而已。
 

想吃比較豐些建議您不妨在傍晚時分遊罷歸來,沐浴=後,到 Fridays Boracay Resort 便有精美海鮮自助餐提供(只限星期五)。或許穿著拖鞋沿著沙灘上的小徑上(這裡可沒有甚麼銅鑼灣或 7 Eleven)索性隨意走進小店,買瓶索價僅數元港幣之啤酒(建議當地 "生力"-San Miguel 或冰凍 ice tea 靜靜地躺在向海的舒適躺椅上,邊啜飲著清涼飲料邊欣賞滿天彩霞及落日餘暉之美(Waling-Waling Resort-Happy Hour最寫意)!但可別被眼前的美景及透心涼海風給吹得睡著了!

這裡的自助餐共有多達數十多道的各式綜合美食有麵、飯、蝦、蟹、聖子、海螺、蜆各類海鮮及牛、豬、雞肉及各式蔬菜、水果等供您盡情享用,費用也不過 25港幣 (190披索)!(SEX's Restaurant) 另外當地的鮮果汁shake,您絕對不能錯過,以筆者而言絕對是每餐必備的標準飲品。

如閣下想搞搞浪漫氣氛的話,不妨給愛侶一個難忘驚喜:於 Nami Resort 房間露台安排一個星夜燭光晚餐兼聘請小提琴或結他手私人彈奏,加上一束火紅玫瑰,美酒佳餚,偶偶細語,箇中溫馨,真是不敢想像。

 

小貼士

每早7~10時,可前往街市(Wet Market "Palangke"):有龍蝦(Boracay 面對蘇綠海-Sulu Sea, 盛產"花龍")、各種海班(有些還未見過!)、貝殼類等,您可以與他們講價,有一次(數年前)曾經以約 $120買了一隻約4斤重的龍蝦及一條約兩斤重的老鼠班。 然後到Caribo給老板Edgar一些煮食費或到Beach Life Restaurant不久一條BBQ老鼠班及龍蝦就這樣任我擺佈了!

*Highly Recommended

 

 

 

There are tons of international restaurants to choose from, many are owned by foreigners who have made this island paradise their home. Try out some of the: French, Mongolian, and Indian restaurants. Discover others!
 

If there are lots of you, some resorts allow you to cook. Or if ambiance is not important, head for the market (Talipapa) and enjoy great food at cheap prices.


One of the joys of being on Boracay is discovering the many different eating places that abound on the island. Most of them are clustered along White Beach Path, the main tourist beat and a popular walking/shopping area for residents and visitors alike. It would seem that there is a restaurant for almost every cuisine of the world. Many were established by people from foreign countries who, themselves once tourists, fell in love with the island and decided to set up home here.

 

Given the limited size of the island, the range of eating places is really quite remarkable, not just in terms of culinary tastes, but also in terms of the range of cuisines available. There are all kinds of restaurants, from inexpensive beach side eateries like Neca and Rizzo Snack Bar to air-conditioned fine-dining emporiums like La Reserve Restaurant, where a glass of cognac and a Havana cigar after the meal are almost de rigeur. European and Asian foods predominate on the island, but what you will not find here yet--thank goodness--are American-style fast-food chains like McDonalds, Wendy's and Kentucky Fried Chicken.

 

Most restaurants are small, intimate and with a friendly staff. It is fun eating around, getting to know the different owners and hearing a few tales, tall and otherwise, from around the world!
 

Regarding the restaurants and the cuisines themselves, here follows a selection that you might want to consider.

 

True Food comes highly recommended for Indian food, La Capannina for Italian, O'Banza for Portuguese, Zorba's for Greek and Bavarian House or Steakhouse Boracay for Austrian/German. Spanish cuisine may be enjoyed at El Toro and spicy Thai at Thai Castles. Good French food is served at La Reserve and Gorios, though both places can be pricey. The latter is also quite famous for its Breton-style fare and crepes. Bar & Restaurant de Paris serves both French and Thai cuisine.
 

Some of the resorts provide excellent meals. In this respect, the fresh seafood and curries at Nigi Nigi Nu Noos Bar & Restaurant and the outstanding lunch buffet at Fridays Restaurant & Bar merit special mention. Nigi Nigi is also famous for its breakfast menu: Patrons are invited to eat as many eggs as they possibly can at no extra charge. The English Bakery, a veritable institution on the island, should not be missed for its hearty English-style morning repast. In fact, most restaurants and bars open early to draw in those going off to catch early morning flights. Many offer a choice of Filipino, American and continental breakfasts. The Filipino variety is characterized by garlic fried rice and such local delicacies as longaniza (pork sausage) and tocino (cured pork).
 

A Loja Delicatessen makes delicious gourmet sandwiches, which you can eat on the premises or take away to the beach or your hotel. It is also a good place to stock up on deli foods and beverages that you might want for a picnic.

 

For a romantic interlude under a canopy of stars, try one of the restaurants along White Beach. Here you can dine to the sound of the waves lapping on the shore and the light of lanterns swaying in the cool night breeze.

 

Wahine Cafe Mongolian BBQ specializes in an eat-all-you-can Mongolian feast. Choose the ingredients (meat, seafood and vegetables) and the sauce to garnish them with, and the chef will expertly prepare your meal and bring it to your table. This is certainly a good way to fuel up. The ingredients are fresh and your meal is cooked to order. There are some street side eateries near boat station 3 that offer low-priced buffets, particularly in the evening. However, be wary of eating cooked food that may have been standing around for a considerable length of time!
 

Stables Real Coffee, with its wonderful espresso, homemade brownies and cookies, and the sparkling conversation provided by the American lady who owns the place, is another treat that should not be missed.

 

Liebevoll, an Italian, yet not so cozy, offers surprisingly quality pastas and pizzas. Always my favourite.

 

A Mediterranean atmosphere offering a wide range of tropical coolers and snacks (don't order when the owner Manager's not there!)

 

Among the many bars and drinking places recommended are Bom Bom and Tawo Bar, where the music is both rhythmic and cool; Charl's Bar for a sundowner and a view of life on the beach; and Moondog Shooter Bar for an otherworldly experience of trying to down 15 nasty alcoholic drinks. Many of the bars operate a happy hour in the early evening when seconds of beers and selected local cocktails are provided gratis.


A final thing to remember: Many establishments take only cash and most of those that do accept credit cards charge a six percent to 10 percent premium on your bills. So you might just want to pay cash!
 

Others Eateries include:

Aria "A True Italian Experience" (D'Mall)- Always my favourite, I just had to go there at least once a day during my stay on the island. Choices of tasteful coffees to go with the freshly log-fire baked & made-to-order pizzas or bread. And the best place to hang around, and you'll definitely see bunches of good-looking people there.


Nami Private Villas (Diniwid Beach) - You just have to visit once with your love one(s). Not mentioning with the fantastic view of Diniwid Beach, the service of JR, the Residence Manager as well as the head of chef is just too professional. Food, though not too many of a choice, is sumptuous. Should you go there for dinner, better to reserve first during the local peak seasons (Nov~May)
 

Boracay CrabHouse @ Escondido (Station 1, off beachfront) - This locally owned small hotel has its own renowned restaurant, whose signature dish has been advertised as Chilly Crab. Frankly, I didn't have a chance to try because they were running out of stock, and you really need to reserve the crab especially during the low seasons.
 

Andok's (D'Mall) A local well known roasted chicken (Lechon Manok), sell by halves or wholes. The roasted pork bellies might be a bit fatty for the dietary-concerned. It's just one of the few places that open 24 hours.
 

D'Hobbit House (D'Mall) - A very well-known bar & restaurant in Manila which has been in business for over 15 years. They now have their branch on the Island. All the waiters & waitresses are midgets who are just super-friendly. Try the Mexican Platter (combination of burritos, tosodas, enchilada, tacos & Mexican rice). "Live Music Nightly, Great Food - Boracay's Most Complete Bar".
 

Mañana Mexican Cuisine (St. 2) - Great shakes & Mexican food.
 

SEXs (St. 3) - A budgeted all-you-can-eat buffet resto, Food is quite good & fresh. The owner is an African-Filipino who has different aspects on food & beverage.
 

Cocomangas (St. 1) - One of the most popular bars on the Island. Jam Jars (vodka with lime juice) & "Still Standing After 15" is definitely a challenge! Don't miss the freshly baked pizzas & cheese melts, you'll love it!
