Aboy's Restaurant

After our stop at Pendy's, we headed to Aboy's Restaurant which is located near the old airport in Bacolod.



The glass counter on the far right area of the photo is where they keep seafood, pork and chicken which are cooked upon ordering.  The covered pots is where the cooked dishes are and you can simply choose a dish and have it brought to your table.




This place can hold large groups of families and tourists.  Their air conditioning works pretty well too.




Aboy's is very Filipino in terms of design aesthetics.  The tables and chairs are made of wood and the framed items depict different sculptures that has significance to the Philippine culture (i.e. religion, festivals, etc.)







For the washing stations, they used 3 spherical water jars made of baked clay or terra cotta.
 



For me, this place serves the best grilled dishes in town.  Here's what we ordered....


Ensaladang talong with tomatoes and salted egg


Squid fat - my mom's favorite!  (110% cholesterol)


Grilled blue marlin - my favorite!


 Grilled scallops - another family favorite!


 The Sinamak is Bacolod's very own vinegar concoction. 
 *A must try for those who love spicy condiments

We ordered a few more dishes (steamed fish, pork liempo and buttered shrimps) but in my haste to try everything, I wasn't able to take pictures.

For the drinks, we had fresh buko juice and sago't gulaman.

It was definitely a filling meal.  Our bill amounted to PhP2,000++ for 5 adults and 2 kids.  It was quite reasonable considering the quantity of food we ordered including 10 cups of rice, drinks for everyone plus ice cream for the kids.
