A HEAVEN TO TASTE
While famed for its dynamic nightlife, BORACAY prides itself in restaurants and bars offering only the freshest and most delightful courses amid an ultimate oasis
The final quarter of last year witnessed the aftermath of the island’s rehabilitation. Both new and returning travelers were more than thrilled to see a wonderful improvement. Developments such as the restoration of the pristine white beach revived the island’s beauty. While people are all looking forward to experiencing the new Boracay, the national government calls for responsible tourism to preserve the island and its resources. Efforts are being done which include the regulation of tourist arrivals, setting up of relocation facilities for island workers, use of electric vehicles, and road reconstruction. With these continuous collective efforts, tourists can enjoy the island similar to its former glory.
Along with Boracay’s reopening, bars and restaurants elevated their menu and retained their signature dishes as well as crowd favorites. After all, a getaway trip to the island is not complete without having downtime to immerse in its amazing dining scene. Who wouldn’t want to keep returning after tasting seafood freshly caught from the seas surrounding the island? Whether local or international fare, you will find elaborate recipes and delicacies that cater to your palate. With many restaurants serving their tasteful dishes by the beachfront, you are certain to have an unforgettable experience amid a tropical paradise.
AQUA BORACAY
For the young and sophisticated traveler, Aqua Boracay Resort is the destination for a dream vacation spent with good friends. While its top-notch amenities and facilities really take rest and relaxation to heart and reality, part of the alluring experience is dining at its restaurants. The allday dining QTCHN, SEA.FOOD by world-renowned chef Chele Gonzalez at the helm and The Sexy Pool Menu at The Dayclub serve a variety of scrumptious dishes.
1 ANGUS STEAK
Lovers of steak always look out for the premium quality beef and this dish will definitely not disappoint. Cooked to the utmost level of tenderness, the steak trickles with its juices for every slice. The sprinkle of mushroom and golden fries offer a variety to the savory taste.
2 MANGO FLOAT WITH BASIL PANNA COTTA
While you may expect this dessert to be sweet, it surprisingly offers a different, interesting flavor. The taste may seem confusing at first, but a second spoonful reveals how the kick of the basil coalesces well with the sweetened cream. This dessert is certainly something new and thrilling to try, especially for those with a sweet tooth.
3 FOUR CHEESE PIZZA
Among their bestsellers, this pizza proves to be different among others. From the crisp crust up to the melt-in-yourmouth cheese, this well-known Italian delight has guests coming back for more. With the number of cheese, you may expect it to be quite salty. Yet the variety from the cheddar, mozzarella, blue, and parmesan cheese perfectly balance one another.
4 CRISPY RACK OF PORK
A wonderful take on a local dish, the crisp and flavorful pork blends well with the pineapple sauce. Savor the tenderness of each bite as you dip it into the rich and sweet sauce. A hint of spice from the red rice punctuates the tantalizingly delicious course.
5 OYSTER SISIG
People return to the resort for this famed sisig and some even attempt to make it on their own. Once you have tasted it, you would know the reason why. While the egg yolk and mayo deliver the much-relished creamy consistency of the typical sisig, the Two Seasons’ version retains enough of the crisp texture. The combination captures the lightness of a dish perfect to indulge in while at the beach.
