Boholano Cuisine at Amorita Resort's Saffron Restaurant

While I really absolutely had fun and enjoyed my Bohol Country-side Tour and my fantastic Garden Villa accommodation, care of Amorita Resort in Panglao Island Bohol, my main purpose that night was to try and taste the signature Boholano Cuisine prepared by Amorita's Saffron Restaurant.



If I am to summarize the food experience and the taste in a word, it would be gingery. Bohol’s cuisine is characterized by the use of a lot of ginger, lemongrass and a turmeric. So here's what Amorita's Saffron Restaurant made for me that evening. Let's start the food adventure!

Superbong's Superbowl Super Adventure

We were asked to design plain white bowls (using markers and colored glues). Don, my friend, designed this very nice Star Wars/ Battle Star Galactica/ Star Trek meets ET and what not alien films inspired piece -- isn't it cool?!

But this event wasn't just about designing bowls; instead, it was about the new addition to Superbowl's menu (available this Christmas season). This is the head chef on Trinoma Branch, working with fire in the kitchen.

And this piece of baby is my favorite among the 4 different kinds of new addition to the menu. This picture is the Lechon Macau (deep fried pork belly cutlets with select Chinese spices, served with Hoisin sauce on the side). Delicious!
