Boss Choi Tacloban

They have re-opened, and thankfully! Why? Because as I said in a previous article about the "old" Boss Choi, they were a grill joint with delectable things on the menu!

So, I came to check this newly re-opened, more upscale-looking version of the old Boss Choi. This one is diagonally across the street from its old location that is now the Bed and Breakfast called Lorenzo's Way (one of my favorites in Tacloban)!

Easy to find. This was the very parking area of Lorenzo's Way. In fact, I took this shot from across the street in front of the store just beside Lorenzo's Way!


Nice interiors... simple rustic mood with modern gadgets like that big TV screen!

It is some kind of an LED board, nice, but I asked the waiters "why does it have to be vertical?". No one knew, one said "oo nga sir, kumbaga sa phone naka-portrait hindi landscape" and we all laughed. Another one said it probably is experimental. But for me, not good for watching NBA!


Okay, as for the food we had these:

All are still delectably good as before. Plus, my favorite kind of rice... this thing with an orange colored oil (whatever that is) and a sprinkling of toast-fried bits of garlic!

The kinilaw that swims in a wonderful bath of vinegar and coconut-milk, aah! That darker fare is 'laing' Bicol-style (gabi leaves are sun dried). And that one on top of the pic (di na makita) is the juicy geilled liempo!


Ayan! Siya si liempo hehehe

Marasa. Yes Karasa!


No other diners yet, so I took a picture of the main eating area...

All tables are made of heavy wood with permanently atrached planks that serve as benches. Nice, you are like eating at a farm!
