Last year (this is another backlog entry apparently), my boyfriend and I were invited to a wedding party in Cagayan de Oro and since it was going to start late in the afternoon (and would most likely continue late into the night) we looked for a place to stay…
After spending some time on research and much deliberation, we finally decided to stay at Prawn House Seafood Restaurant and Suites. As obviously implied by its name, It’s not only a hotel but it’s also a restaurant that serves seafood. And because I really love seafood, it’s a double win for me!
The best part is, it’s only a walking distance from SM City! And for those of you who want to know, it’s only just a few minutes away from the Lumbia airport too.
There’s my boyfriend checking out their menu… Food prices range between 200 to 300 pesos.
Yes, they have aquariums that contain live sea creatures just like in Oyster Bay Seafood Restaurant.
And then there’s my boyfriend again, enjoying his fresh buko juice, or as Americans would like to call it, coco water.
Forgot what this is called but it definitely looks like steak. I remember to have enjoyed it. The gravy went really nicely with it and so did the vegetables on the side.
Sizzling sisig. One of my favorite Filipino food of all time. Pairs perfectly with ice-cold beer.
Of course, no Prawn House trip is ever complete without having to try any of their seafood, especially their prawns! Their Prawn Thermidore is a definite must-try!
And here’s a preview of the room we got…
This is the Standard Room. Can you believe that this only costed us 850 for the night? It’s neat, tidy and cozy. The linens and towels were fresh. And they provided complimentary bathroom products too! Believe me, not all budget hotels here in the Philippines do that. And with this note, I am impressed!
So for those who want to experience quality service but are on a budget, I highly recommend this place!
