Blackbeard’s Seafood Island Bacolod is synonymous with two things — Pinoy seafood dishes and boodle fight! You can enjoy it with the whole family and the gang all day at their Bacolod branch, located on the second floor of Ayala Malls Capitol Center!
Pinoys love seafood and our own style of cooking. And Blackbeard’s Seafood Island Bacolod understands that. But more than just regular seafood dishes, they have elevated our usual dining pleasure using our hands with well-thought out boodle fight meals.
Boodle Fight at Blackbeard’s Seafood Island Bacolod
Boodle fight meals are those shared meals placed on banana leaves. The rice is heaped in the middle and the different grilled meats and seafood are arranged on the side.
In barangays, the people would sit around the table facing the meal and then they would dig in using their hands. Plates are usually omitted. It may not appear sanitary, but it’s fun. And it’s the Filipino way of reinforcing camaraderie.
Meanwhile, the boodle fight meals at Blackbeard’s Seafood Island Bacolod are different. What sets them apart is that they were designed based on the provinces of the Philippines. Each boodle fight meal is named after a particular province and features the most popular seafood in that area.
The prices differ, depending on the number of meats included. For each kind, you have a choice between a small or a big set.
Seafood Paluto
We Bacolodnons like our pala-pala style of seafood presentation. We choose the freshest seafood in the market and then we ask the eatery to prepare it in the way we like.
But now, we can have that in the comforts of an air conditioned restaurant at Blackbeard’s Seafood Island. You can choose your favorite fresh seafood from their aquariums and then they will prepare these according to your taste.
