I saw it in the works. The celebrant’s husband got up from his beach bed shortly after breakfast and talked to the manager of Discovery Shores Boracay‘s Indigo Restaurant.

“What do we want?” he asked our group. We threw out some standards.

Fish!
Prawns!
Squid!
Pork belly!

The manager wrote down the requests on a piece of paper and nobody thought about it after that. In the afternoon, the staff began setting up what would be the most beautiful outdoor dinner I’ve had. You could feel all the love in it, and I have to say it was a magical evening for all.

Fancy table set-up. The staff worked all afternoon on this. You could see the love in their eyes.

The memorable dishes of the evening below:

Steamed crab over rice noodles.

Chili crab

Sauteed prawns.

Pork belly over sauteed kangkong.

Whole steamed fish.

Table for twelve.

Discovery Shores Boracay has been named the #1 hotel spa in Asia and Indigo Restaurant has also been shortlisted in 2010 and 2011’s Miele Best Restaurants in Asia List. Travel and Leisure’s feature on Discovery Shores says that with a day’s notice Indigo can prepare a customized multi-course degustation menu, which is what we had that evening.

That was the best way to celebrate a birthday!
