Lunch in Polaris at Saud Beach, Pagudpud

April 22, 2011 by The Sunset Goddess 2 Comments

 

Polaris (9)
 

After the whole morning seeing the sights in and near Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte, we were finally off to Saud Beach! 🙂 For lunch, our tour guide James recommended either Saud Beach Resort or Polaris Beach House. Since we had a budget and we knew we were going to be hungry, we chose Polaris which is the less expensive option.Polaris is seemingly located at the edge of Saud Beach. We passed through a wide, quiet area with lots of coconut trees, which gave a nice shade and perfectly complimented the strong breeze coming from the sea.

Polaris
Polaris is a two-story resort, with the restaurant in the ground floor and the rooms in the second floor. The restaurant is not airconditioned but it didn’t matter because the sea breeze still cooled the whole place.

According to B., the accommodations in Polaris were very basic and the rates are cheaper than our resort, Kapuluan. However, you won’t really waste the difference in price since rooms in Kapuluan are nicer :)The food was good —but I must say we were very hungry after our sightseeing. 🙂 Here’s a picture of their menu (click on the picture to enlarge):

They just had very small servings. So be sure to get the whole orders and not just the half order for each dish. Here’s what we ordered:

Grilled Liempo (P400)
Polaris (10)

 

Pork Sinigang (P400)
Polaris (12)

Grilled Fish (P400)

Polaris (13)
And we also ordered Adobong Sitaw (P200)
Polaris (11)

 

Lunch was super satiating 🙂 Anyway, how can you go wrong with these tried and tested Filipino dishes? 🙂 But my only comment is that the pork used for the sinigang was hard (hindi pinalambot!) and as for the liempo, I found the sauce used for the marinade too sweet.

While my Canon S90 was still able to take the pictures above, it was already malfunctioning in some shots because of the sand that entered the lens back in the Bangui Windmills. Hence, these lomo-ish pictures.

And finally, a last look at Saud Beach from Polaris on our way back to our resort 🙂

I wish us all more travels! Cheers! 🙂

      Hi Christian! We rented a van which took us around Bangui, Cape Bojeador then afterwards, we decided to hang out in Saud Beach since we were already checked in at the Blue Lagoon area. Good thing because the water at Saud Beach was much calmer than in Blue Lagoon, so having lunch in Polaris was just perfect.
