Finally tried out Barkada, a modern Filipino eatery that has been on my radar since its opening in February. Their menu features bold flavours, inspired by traditional Filipino dishes and also fun, contemporary plates based on crowd favourites! 🇵🇭 ✨ We ordered their 𝗣𝗮𝗴𝘁𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗺 𝗣𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗧𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘂 priced at $298 hkd per person for a good taste of some of their signature dishes!

— This was SO good! The squiggly wheat noodles held onto the umami-packed coconut chili sauce so well, that each bite was just a flavour explosion in your mouth. The sauce itself was so flavourful and had a good kick to it. The shrimp were fresh and soaked up all the flavours and spices of the dish really well too. A MUST try!

— Spring rolls were super crispy and piping hot. The filling was really well seasoned with a slight peppery aroma to it.

— First time trying this dish and was super impressed! This was a combination of savoury and fatty flavours with a good layering of citrus flavours to cut through the grease. The pork belly pieces were sizzling hot and crunchy, making the dish so irresistible.

— Fragrant rice that went perfectly with the pork sisig.

— Cocktails were really impressive but quite small. The mangga martini really stood out for me as the mango flavours were really prominent making the drink very easy to drink.

— Interesting dessert but probably not for me as it was overly sweet. The cake itself had a chewy, mochi-like texture, and the grated cassava added a good crunch to it. The coconut ice cream was refreshing, and balanced out the sweetness from the caramel-coconut syrup slightly.

— Great sharing dish! Basically their take on a ceviche to kickstart your appetite. The crispy rice crackers on the side were a perfect accompaniment.

— These crispy, bite-sized pieces of chicken were packed with flavour. The garlicky adobo glaze had a good level of sweetness and savouriness to it.

— Tangy starter to begin with. The mangoes were ripe but really sour 😂 The calamansi dressing was pretty refreshing too!
📍Ambiance: fun, loud space. Great for a group of friends!
