Ole Tapas Bar Restaurant: cracking locale in Boracay
Ole Tapas Bar Restaurant: I tell you what folks I’d go here again for certain. Where to eat on a Friday night in Boracay, the Philippines? The family and I were in the Philippines for a short family vacation, literally eating our way across the island.
We walked past Ole Tapas Bar & Restaurant at Station 2. It was packed to the rafters, apart from a full 6 seater table becoming free right at the front in the open air. Yep, I’ll have that thanks! It was clearly fate – and I am so glad we went in. Lovely staff and truly superb food.
Spanish, Portuguese, and Cuban food – now that suggests that this will be good. Ole Tapas Bar Restaurant has a specialty in paella – albeit we didn’t have this tonight. But I have to say there was pan after pan of paella coming out from the kitchen. And I truly mean pan after pan.

Mary ordered the Gambas Y Fritadas. Basically grilled prawns with chips. But this was far from basic. Also when I say grilled I mean BBQ‘d to get that intense smoky flavour. These things were the size of a small child. Oh boy, these were insanely good.
Some of the best prawns I have ever eaten, and Mary said the best ever she had had and that just for these she would come back to Ole Tapas Bar Restaurant.

A Cuban sandwich is a variation of ham and cheese that was often made in cafes catering to Cuban workers in the early Cuban immigrant communities of Florida, Key West, and so on.
This was grilled pork tenderloin, ham, cheese, mustard and pickle. Sour, meaty, crunchy, mustardy deliciousness.

You know me, I had to try another dish. And here is their Ropa Vieta. Shredded beef with onion, garlic, tomato sauce, and win, cooked in olive oil.
This was really nice, although the Cuban sandwich had filled me somewhat. This was almost a Cuban version of sweet and sour pork, but much more savoury.
