If you are looking for a food joint that could satisfy your ravenous appetite while exploring and enjoying Boracay, you should head to D' Mall Plaza near Boat Station 2 and look for Mongkok Boracay Restaurant. If you are a resident food enthusiast in the Philippines, you should be familiar with the name. The restaurant is actually a branch of the famous Mongkok restaurant found in Glorietta and Rockwell Power Plant Mall, two of the most modern and posh Metro Manila urban malls.

Mongkok Boracay has definitely brought Mongkok to the island. The usual long queues in the Makati branches are also quite common at the Boracay site, especially during peak lunch and dinner hours. If you have already tried out eating out at Mongkok, you should know by now why people are so into it. Otherwise, you should satisfy and give in to your curiosity and prepare to be enchanted by the dishes and basic restaurant services offered and provided only by Mongkok.

D' Mall has transformed into a food center right at the heart of Boracay. There are many beach resorts and hotels nearby and the location is also just a few minutes of walk away from the popular White Beach. You can surely easily find the mall. Right there, Mongkok will be easier to find because so far, it is the only stand out Chinese restaurant in the center.

The common specialties of Mongkok are nonetheless and undeniably Chinese. To begin with, take a pick from 32 different Dimsum choices. The usual favorites are the tender and juicy Mongkok Siomai and the Scallop Dumpling, which will just roll off your tongue with its nary taste. Not to be ignored will be the Salad Shrimp Puff dimsum, with its very tasty and plump shrimp covered in crispy crust. All dimsums are served and eaten best with calamansi, soy sauce and chili oil savors.

For the main course, the Chef's Specials are must-try dishes, which have 22 items in it all in all. Included in the list will be the Salt and Pepper Squid with its amazingly tender squid. The flavors of salt and the texture of pepper are complementing each other to give a good gastronomic experience. Lemon Chicken has the perfect tartness aside from being a sweet but appetizing dish. Scallop and Broccoli has more meat to it, unlike the versions of other restaurants where broccoli hides the limited amount of meat. For its part, Yang Chow Fried Rice is already a standout meal itself because you can eat it as is or eat it along with other sultry dishes in the menu.

The specialty dessert will be Mongkok Boracay's Black Gulaman, which comes with Lychee. The restaurant put some almond essence to provide this dessert its strong and overpowering main taste.

Mongkok Boracay is a good restaurant that offers quality and sumptuous meals without hurting the pocket so much. A decent meal could cost around P400 (less than $10) and will already include up to four pieces of dimsum. The ambiance of the restaurant is just fine, almost similar to the atmosphere at its other branches in the Metro.
