Kawayan Kitchen Subic

When my brother and his beautiful wife, who both resides abroad came to Manila for a visit, me and my husband stepped into to our tour guide shoes.

We thought it would be cool to bring them to Bataan to visit Las Casas (See related post here Las Casas de Acuzar Bataan Tour)

On our way to Bataan, we decided to make the most of our road trip and took a half day detour to Subic Bay.

We brought them to Magaul Bird Park, a birds amusement park with birds' shows and interaction programs (Check here our wacky-surreal park adventure: VIP Treatment at Magaul Bird Park).

It was almost lunch time, when we finished touring the park so we popped up to the nearest restaurant in sight

~ KAWAYAN KITCHEN

As the restaurant name suggests, Kawayan "Bamboo" Kitchen cooks using bamboo, a technique used by Subic's natives the "Aetas".

Kawayan Kitchen offers varied menu via a forest to table concept experience.

Kawayan Rice (P120)

Sinampalukan "Tamarind Base" Manok (P180)

Lechon Kawali (P199)

I just have to share, how they served our order of  Sinampalukan Manok.

FINAL VERDICT:

• Eating food prepared using bamboo cooking art is a unique experience.   
• Price is very reasonable and servings good for sharing. 
• The place is clean and a portion of the restaurant is air-conditioned.

Seafood by the Bay Restaurant Subic

The Seafood by the Bay Restaurant is stone throw away from the hotel we are staying in, so it was a no brainer that the long sunset beach stroll would lead us to this well recommended restaurant.

The bayfront seatings were quite enticing (really wanted a table beachfront), however, my kids are aircondition peeps!  So I had to be contented with view from inside the restaurant. 

Price may be quite steep for the normal Juan, but I guess that is expected. Given the ambiance and the quality of food served the price was just about worth it.

We ordered, honey walnut shrimp, seafood hotpot, hongkong fried chicken, yangchow rice, banana split for dessert and ended with a bill just a little over P1,000.

Not bad at all!

Verdict: Seafood by the Bay is recommended!  It tops our list of must visit restaurants in Subic!
