| - Read, set, boodle fight GO!
Got to experience a Boodle Fight along with some fellow Yelpers for the monthly Yelp International Supper Club. Can we have a mention for how many great places this supper club keeps introducing me to? And the food keeps getting better too!
What is a Booble Fight you may ask? Think a long line of rice laid out on banana leaves with all different types of meat laid out on top. You eat with your fingers (plastic gloves provided if needed). Unbelievably good food and a great experience.
One order of a Booble Fight comes with your choice of 3 meats, and as we had 2 orders we asked if we could try 6 different options. Adobo Experience graciously said yes and the feast commenced!
All of their meat is slow cooked, or slow braised, and then grilled, all covered with great marinade flavours. The bbq ribs were by far my favourite and just fell off the bone soft. Next up would have to be the crispy pata, which is pork hock, and was a delicious juicy mouthful. Tried 2 types of chicken, one marinaded and the other slow braised with more of a smoked flavour. A great ground pork and tofu dish was also served and even though the tofu was quite soft it was still very tasty and not mushy. Got to try milkfish, was grilled and was cut into smaller pieces. Lastly there was an eggplant + tomato + duck egg salad. Oh wait, we also had some seasonal veg tempura (carrots + yams + some other things I forgot) which came in a little patty and was a great crispy extra treat we added on.
Man on man that was a lot of food. All of us ate until we were close to popping and then took ourselves home some left overs.
At $100 for a boodle fight that feeds 6-8 people (with potential left overs depending on the extent of the feeding frenzy) this is some amazingly great value for money. So excited Adobo Experience was recommended to us for Yelp International Supper Club otherwise I would never have know of this amazing experience.
Very interested to go back and try more dishes from the menu as it all looked sooooo good... I was stalking tables on the way out and wanted to know what everyone was having :)
