Choose your Floating Restaurant

Around 11.30am, we were already on our way to our next stop, the Loboc River Cruise to have our first meal and lunch in Bohol.  As we arrived there were booths (see above picture) where you can check out menus and decide which floating restaurant to dine in. Kuya Roy, our tour driver, suggested us to eat in RiverWatch floating restaurant; buffet price is 300php per head and this is the standard rate for all.

As we got in the floating restaurant, buffet table was ready and people started to get food. Below is a shot of the buffet table located in the middle part of the boat.  Few minutes later, the cruise started and we were enjoying our meal at the same time the scenic view of Loboc River.

Just on the other end of the boat, the musical band was situated and played Tagalog and English love songs while we were on cruise the Loboc River. On our way back, the boat stopped on one point so we can watch the Loboc Pink Dancers (named by my friend Leo ) as they entertained us with a lively song and dance number. Which was actually good and a lot have donated money for this dance group as part of the Loboc community livelihood program. (See 3rd picture below)

The duration of the Loboc River Cruise took almost 1.5 hours. For me, the food served was just fine but I was expecting more from it, more exotic cuisines, more seafoods and more appetizing foods. It is a good thing that the calm scenery and relaxing feeling of the river cruise made the tour much favourable. I must say that this is a great spot to be with your special someone and simply enjoy the moment together with the breeze and green surroundings.
