I could be one of the last persons here in Iloilo who haven't been to Floyd's Famous Bbq. Located at the 2nd floor of the Atrium with a great view of the city, Floyd's started inside the University of San Agustin catering to its students. Now, its part of the Iloilo Supermart, Coffeebreak, Tinapayan, etc family being managed by one the Que siblings.
My recent trips to Floyd's were treats from a friend who seems to be a VIP there (we don't even line up and our orders served within 3 minutes compared to the usual 15minutes).
My first visit had seafood kare kare and pork barbecue to which seem ordinary in my own opinion. The pork barbecue was more on the "don’t like" scale since I don’t seem to like the barbecue sauce while the kare kare was nothing spectacular. Though both would have been picture perfect if I had the courage to take some photos. Having a table at the center of the restaurant during that busy lunch hour together with new acquaintances suppressed my urge of clicking.
But today, still being at that same spot, was totally different. Maybe because it was the fact that I was only with my friend or maybe the fact that we had their famous chicken barbecue. No matter what, at least, I did take some photos. And the chicken barbecue? A lot better than the pork but still i don’t seem to like whatever they put in their marinade and sauce though I finished the chicken to the bones.
Still, worth another visit for more gastronomic experiences and more pictures.
