Bohol Bee Farm

The first on our list of places to see is Bohol Bee Farm at Island City Mall because it was the nearest from where we were staying. We did visit the Bohol Bee Farm in Panglao a few days later but only the Buzzz Cafe in Alona beach (which I’ll be posting a blog too).

Anyway, Bohol Bee Farm prides itself as a restaurant that serves organic food. Their products mostly comes from their very own organic farm which also provides jobs  and livelihood projects for the Boholanos. Their also famous for their honey (of course) and pesto spreads. Me I personally loved the honeyspread.

Honey Bee Farm at Island Fiesta Mall, Tagbilaran City:

Organic Ice Cream with a host of flavours to fancy your sweet tooth.

Yep, those are all organic. Not the organic hype, but real organic stuff.

Bohol Bee Farm’s The Buzzz Cafe.

They actually sell a lot of great stuff not just food but also soap to tea. My personal favourite is the honey spread. It’s just delicious on its own or with bread, crackers, etc!

The food and drinks!!!

I totally forgot.. this was some sort honey laced white mocha coffee.

Organic Garden Salad with flowers such as Bougainvillea, Gumamela, Cosmos, Ternati, etc…

Fresh Herb Pasta!

Their own homemade bread with honey and pesto spreads. This is on the house.

On the left is camote fries and Leia also got a lemongrass juice (the green colored drink).

Malunggay (Moringa) Flavored Ice Cream which I think is sweetened by honey.

Some hefty organic almost vegan like dinner.

It’s not hard to find Bohol Bee Farm in Island City Mall. It’s just in the ground floor going right from the main entrance. The Mall itself is not really large so you won’t get lost finding those bees. However, if you’re planning to visit Bohol just for a vacation (I went here for a wedding cinematography workshop), check out Bohol Bee Farm in Panglao Island instead which 30-45 minutes drive. You can even book for a stay there because they do have beautiful rooms with a nice rustic tough to it, they also have a wonderful buffet and their dining area has a great view of the beach plus a store too and a herb garden heaven for organic lovers.

Peace!!

 

INJ

From top left to bottom right: Baby Back Ribs, Grilled Blue Marlin and Pasta de Calamari at INJ Iligan.

INJ is actually a restaurant with a car wash or a car wash with a restaurant (scratches head) in Palao near The Strip. I think you can see it where there’s a utility tricycle in the photo.

The place is really nice and the food was okay, but I like the grilled blue marlin. I think you could never go wrong with a blue marlin no matter how it is cooked. The calamares was specially good too, but the pasta sauce tasted like ordinary plain ketchup. They could use a better tomato sauce or cook real tomatoes in olive oil for the pasta.

I heard they have one of the best burgers in town… a day after we came here. Toink!

We still enjoyed our “luncher” or “drunch” (I’m just coining the term between lunch and dinner) or our mid afternoon super heavy snack.
