My Tasteful Life: 29/52 Chow down at Captain A's Boodle fight!

I think every Cebuano knows what boodle fight is. In my generation today, It's one way to enjoy our food with our love ones or with our friends. Isn't it good to hear that there is a restaurant in Cebu that could offer us this "boodle fight" treat.

The Captain A's Seafood Grill, A Filipino inspired grill house restaurant made and bought this concept to the Cebuano food tables. Uniquely, Captain A's offered the first and one & only boodle fight experience to us. Amaaaaaazing :)

What is Boodle fight? (For the people who don't really what it is )

~Boodle fight is a military terminology for "eating combat" or "attack food". It originally came from the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) cadets wherein members of the military regardless the rank eat together in one long table where their food is jumbled and spread over banana leaves or newspapers. This way of eating symbolizes their fraternity and equality for each other. ~

I was with Babe for food Justinne Go and Luis Quibranza III to enjoy this treat: D We were handed with this “your guide to the BOODLE FIGHT experience" brochure and I'm sharing what's inside to you food friends.
