A Foray into the Korean Side of Town
The Bugle went out to visit the Subic Oceanview hotel/restaraunt/floating bar (located along National highway just prior to Calapandayan proper) the other day to see what they had in store. And boy was there a few surprises there. As we walked into the lobby and proceeded down a couple of flights of stairs to get to the so called floating bar/restaraunt we coulded help but notice the general lack of attention to details in the finishings. There were lots of cracks in the tile floors the edging around the steps was all hacked up, etc.. just not a good overall first impression. Made on think that the whole place was on the verge of sliding down into the bay. The restaraunt area itself was large and had an impressive view once the staff took down all the laundry that was hanging everywhere to dry. Not a very impressive start but I figured I was here I maight as well try some food. Prices ranged from 4000p for the lobster sashimi to 200p or so for some of the different soups. We had a house special salad for 300p that was edible, kimchi and a korean noodle dish that was actually quite tasty. There was bulgogi on the menu but at 800p for 300 grams of meat I thought the price was a bit high. The worst thing about the place though was the huge flies that were dive bombing our food while we were trying to eat. Not sure if that was due to the time we were eating (4pm or so) or just a general lack of sanitation in the area bordering the restaraunt. Don't think that the Bugle will be making a return visit anytime soon.
