This restaurant foremost concretizes the warmth unique to Filipino dining through its interior centered on wooden materials and a food selection that highlights local seafood dishes.<\/p>\n

Because of this, best believe that you can sail through the sea even while statically perched on your seat when you dine here.<\/p>\n

For a start, launch your palate’s voyage at the shallow waters with the plateful of\u00a0Seaweed Salad <\/strong>that is thoroughly reminiscent of the taste only given off by the sea.<\/p>\n

Those little dots of green attached to their individual stems pop in the mouth, which will graze your taste buds with a slimy texture and barely flavored but undeniably fresh taste.<\/p>\n

If the salad is too peculiar for you, though, one recommended balancing agent\u00a0is the\u00a0Kang-kong with Oyster Sauce <\/strong>that is a hefty plate of kang-kong<\/em> stems soaked in the highly-flavorful oyster sauce.<\/p>\n

You can have it as an appetizer and definitely even as a side dish, which you won’t mind munching on all throughout your meal.<\/p>\n

Moving onto the deeper parts of the sea where most marine species find their homes and probably where\u00a0two of Palawan’s most-loved fish flap their grills, then,\u00a0brings you an even filling dining\u00a0experience.<\/p>\n

Complement the warm breeze and the tranquil music of the water with one of the many viable proofs of what we said, which takes the shape of Badjao Seafront’s Fish Kinilaw<\/strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Its sliced tanigue<\/em> pieces softly explode with vinegar on top of the kick of cucumber flavor upon which they are mixed with.<\/p>\n

Another dish on the list is the Steamed Lapu-Lapu with Tausi<\/strong>\u2014a\u00a0comparatively powerful-tasting dish than the Fish Kinilaw with its thick, salty, black bean sauce.<\/p>\n

To get the best of both worlds\u2014that is, the sea and the restaurant\u2014grace your dining tables with the always fresh\u00a0Seafood Platter <\/strong>that is a fanfare of fish, shrimps, crabs, mussels, squid, and fried seafood lumpia. This is also packed with seaweed salad and steamed eggplant on the side.<\/p>\n

Hungry yet? We have more to give you!<\/p>\n

You can take this with a grain of salt, but this line of food is best\u00a0partnered with Seafood Rice.\u00a0<\/strong>It is a platter of yellow rice laden with minced carrots and squid pieces among others.<\/p>\n

Whereas if you want to thrust a chop of pork to your tables, you may opt to order their\u00a0Crispy Pata<\/strong>\u00a0that is sizeable enough to serve a group of diners. They also have beef and chicken dishes that can readily fit your craving for the day.<\/p>\n
