I was so blessed this week to be treated to gastronomic delights of surreal proportions. And Phenpoint Grill Alang-alang - Borongan's latest dining sensation was the 'it' place for the wonderful experience.
They offer eat-all-you-can lunch and dinner buffets for only Php 200.
The buffet tables - all filled up to the mark with culinary sensations meant to whet one's palate. In the foreground is the hands-on owner-cook-manager Pinpin always supervising, methodically looking for flaws and bent to perfection. Best time to be there is around 9-10 o'clock before the huge crowd begin to rush. I was among the early birds.
The squid is a must-try. Stuffed with choice herbs, vegetables and chicken and pan-fried to a delectable done-ness, I always look forward to my squid meal every time.
This is pork adobo ala Phenpoint. So delicious.
Chicken Cordon Bleu. I super like this trademark dish of Phenpoint's. There's a herb infused that I cannot yet figure out and until I discover this mystery herb, I won't stop coming back for more.
For the diet-conscious, the sweet-and-sour fish with vegetables is perfect.
The salad bar. The vegetables were covered when I arrived. I was one of the first guests and had the complete set to my heart's content. You can mix and match the vegetables according to preference. I had a huge heap of lettuce - something I can't always do in Borongan because of unavailability of the vegetable.
