My 4th Boracay trip was a mixture of strangely familiar deeds. Nonetheless, action-packed.
Jony's - Station 1
Spic-and-Span:
We were craving for Jonah’s fruit shakes but were too lazy to find its new location. Thus, the desperate decision to try Jony’s fruit shakes. The fruit shakes weren’t bad but not as tasty as that of Jonah’s. While this restaurant boasts of its fruit shakes and mexican meals, surprisingly, it’s just way too average for my taste buds.
*Jonah’s now has 2 locations. One at the beach front near Obama at Station 1 and the other one is by the road near Kalibo Cable.
L-R: mango banana, watermelon & mango shakes. The watermelon shake was indeed refreshing.
nachos were a bit oily
beef shreds in a burrito was original
the chicken shreds in the quesadilla was way too chunky for me
the bami pancit was oily and too orange-y 
Intrigued by the flaming crepe, we tried out Ti-Braz. I’m not into bananas so I failed to see the flaming crepe. Instead, I ordered Mango Amour and it turned out be the usual crepe. To my dismay, it was over-priced which cost me P215.00
Ti-Braz Boracay - Station 2

Among our new pursuits, the Hydro or Aqua Zorb experience was really memorable — really had fun! It was indeed another way to get wet in Boracay! 
Here’s a sneak peek….

Yet another new discovery was the cocktail drinks to-go of Loco Frio. I’ve gone loco with this spiked frozen drink which led me to 2 refills in 1 day… an excuse to have a glimpse of Mark Nelson who co-owns it. Too bad… I didn’t see him.
*Near Obama Station 1
the first in the Philippines according to the bar tender... looking forward to see our group picture in its Facebook page... hehe!
mudslide spiked with Kahlua + Bailey's is a must-try
I always book my hotel accommodation near Station 1 to avoid the crowd and loud sounds of Station 2 & 3. The stroll to Station 3 was a surprise to me. It isn’t as crowded as I thought it would be… way much peaceful than Station 2. I also saw a couple of high-end resorts such as Boracay Sands Hotel and the widely-known La Carmela de Boracay of Boy So [as Boy Abunda usually plugs].

My last dinner at the island was Bite Club‘s giant chicken burger. Quite pricey for its taste at P135. Good thing, I didn’t pay for it.

Manana Mexican Cuisine - Station 1; near Starbucks
The Conventional:
With our hotel [Mito's Place] right beside Manana, we won’t miss a quick bite at this Mexican diner. We feasted on the usual Mexican staples such as tacos and quesadillas…leaving us blushed with its assortment of hot chili and fully satisfied [also really full of gas ] with its ample serving of onions and beans!
I never liked riding tricycles but Boracay’s 10-seater tricycles are so much fun!

Our discovery of Hawaiian Bar-B-Que‘s hefty and tasty pork ribs last year made it to this year’s food agenda. Just the same, we had it served at Beach Bum Bar while having cuba libre [buy 1 take 1] and enjoying the fire dance show.

Hawaiian Bar-B-Que's Pork Ribs is way much better and worth it than Gasthof's
Hawaiian Bar-B-Que's Pineapple Chicken Fried Rice is a meal itself! Yum!

Hawaiian Bar-B-Que's Chori Burger
Speaking of fire dance, I’d say Boracay’s Phoenix Fire Dancers is one of the best in the island. One of its dancers really made me laugh when he/she suddenly blurted “Sir, Ma’am… pengeng pera!” [asking for tips]. Just the same, will try to post the videos soon…

if I'm not mistaken he's Freddie... nice Sparta abs
After dinner, we had another round of drinks. And again, we went back to try Bamboo Lounge‘s mangojito. Such a quiet place to enjoy your drink and laze by the beach.
this mangojito will give you a real kick!
My Boracay trip would be incomplete without having a quick snack of chori burger and spicy hotdog charcoal grilled to perfection.
Seafood anyone? D’ Talipapa offers day’s catch of seafood where you can have it cooked by nearby paluto restaurants. Cooking charges starts from P75-150 per dish.
yellow-finned tuna
huge parrot fish
another alternative pasalubong, dried fish and squid
- baked scallops
- Galeria Kulay offers unique Boracay souvenirs from accessories, sarong, paintings and wood carvings
Not sure though whether Big Mouth is famous in Boracay but as I understand it is known for its halo-halo. I haven’t tried it but I ordered [again] its pancakes and tried out their ube [purple yam] shake. Yummy and affordable!
There are still a lot of food, places, activities yet to be experienced. Thus, I’ll be booking my 5th trip by next year. Suggestions anyone?
