Filipino Dishes Communal Dinner: Boodle Fight Night
Satisfy your Filipino food cravings the way the locals do at Abraham Manila! A boodle fight is a traditional communal dinner where everyone gathers at the table and eats their meal together with their hands.
This group activity stems from the Philippine Military where all the soldiers, both enlisted personnel and officers, eat together to strengthen the camaraderie and brotherhood between each other.
Boodle fights are also regularly done between groups of friends, families whenever visitors or distant relatives come by, and even by companies and its employees to build a good relationship in the workplace.
Filipino dishes served during a boodle fight typically include a healthy amount of rice, stir-fried or steamed vegetables, and a main dish like adobo, roasted meat or fish, or other savory delicacies.
Sliced fruits are also served as dessert for the participants though it is not uncommon to also serve ‘kakanin’ or Filipino rice cakes instead depending on the season.
By joining Abraham’s Boodle Fight, not only will you fill your belly, but you will also meet and interact with a group of other like-minded people and even possibly make lifelong friendships with them by the time the night ends!
After the meal, you can then go out and explore the nightlife of Makati on your own or stay a while so that you can join our free Poblacion Pub Crawl with the same crowd!
