A feast of feast was unfold throughout our lengthy desk—acquainted Filipino dishes however dressed nicer than your regular meal at residence. The desk was set outdoors The Lind’s Tartine Restaurant—alongside Boracay White Seaside’s premier location, Station 1—however nobody appears to be minding the banquet. The solar was setting and everybody had rushed to the shore to take images of the well-known Boracay sundown.

THE LIND BORACAY RESORT

The Lind Boracay is among the most luxurious resorts, not solely in Boracay White Seaside, however the entire of Boracay. Situated on the far finish of Station 1, it’s located on one of many quieter components of the island. Additionally it is close to Lambros Level, the entry solution to one other secluded seaside—Diniwid Seaside.

THE LIND BORACAY’S BEAUTIFUL POOL AREA

Rated as a five-star resort, The Lind has greater than 100 rooms—every with its personal balcony—swimming swimming pools, a health middle, spa, child’s playroom, and three in-house eating places. And it’s on considered one of these eating places that we determined to spend our dinner on.

The Lind Boracay’s Tartine restaurant is situated on the resort’s seaside entrance and is open for walk-in company. Named after the French open-faced sandwiched, the resort claims that it displays the resto’s elaborate spreads, which is an ode to the well-curated number of culinary gives of The Lind Boracay. They serve Western, Asian, and Filipino fares.

The restaurant’s open plan is expansive and the inside is tastefully embellished—gentle earth tones and whites that goes properly with Boracay’s seaside vibe. There isn’t any AC, however the cross breeze from the seaside to the pool space is greater than sufficient to chill the place down.

AFTERNOON COCKTAILS AT THE LIND BORACAY’S BEACHFRONT

There’s ample al fresco seats by the seaside—which doesn’t cross over to the general public space—that it was straightforward sufficient for us to safe a desk. And properly, sure, we booked forward—though, there have been numerous empty seats after we arrived.

THE FOOD

BBQ PIZZA, FRIES, AND COCKTAILS

Since we went hours earlier than dinner, we first had a couple of cocktails and snacks to whereas away the time. Additionally, they’ve a contented hour, dubbed as The Lind Hours, which runs from 4 to seven within the night. Cocktails are on a purchase one take one promo, so why not. We paired our drinks with a some pizza, fries, and onion rings.

All of us agreed that their snacks had been simply okay. Their BBQ rooster pizza was actually good although.

CHEERS TO POST-PANDEMIC TRAVELS!

By sundown, our dinner unfold was virtually full. We took our candy time to take a couple of images of the setting solar alongside White Seaside earlier than feasting on it.

THE TEAM RH GANG

We had been ten within the group—together with a toddler—so, our unfold was understandably huge. For Filipino dishes, we ordered adobo sa gata, crispy pata, beef caldereta, lechon kawali, kilawin, and bulalo for soup. We additionally added a Balinese nasi goreng and Singaporean chili crispy rooster to spice issues up a bit.

FINAL THOUGHTS

THE WINNERS, CHICKEN ADOBO SA GATA AND SINGAPOREAN CHILI CRISPY CHICKEN

Everybody on the group agreed that all the pieces was simply okay—they’re completely not dangerous, however they’re additionally nothing to jot down residence about. Nonetheless, contemplating how costly they’re, it was a little bit of a let down.

The few exceptions had been their Singaporean chili crispy rooster, which I completely dig—although it wasn’t as spicy as I imagined it to be, and their rooster adobo sa gata which may be very uniquely executed—with the entire spring rooster fried, the sarsa combined with gata, and topped with a poached egg.

WE FOUND A PIECE OF PLASTIC IN OUR BULALO SOUP

We additionally didn’t like the truth that we discovered a chunk of plastic within the bulalo soup. Our waiter was very sorry for it—saying it was a part of the plastic they cowl the bowl to maintain it heat. After we reported it to their administration, they had been fairly unapologetic about it—saying they are going to examine the matter additional. They finally gave us a lunch voucher, which we didn’t trouble to just accept.

THE REQUISITE GROUP SHOT

To be sincere, we actually wouldn’t have chosen to eat right here if not for our buddy who handled the entire gang to dinner—celebrating our first time touring collectively because the pandemic hit. I imply, we have now eaten at a number of the most cost-effective eating places in Boracay, and our concept of a splurge is a Boracay buffet—The Lind’s prohibitive costs isn’t actually inside our attain.

However all in all, we nonetheless loved our dinner expertise at The Lind Boracay, nevertheless it was extra the corporate and site moderately than the meals.
