Meal bill
Excerpt
Virgin Island in Bohol draws a lot of tourists for its pristine water and white sandbar. Thirteen recent visitors, however, seemed to have been turned off by the food sold by locals after they received their bill. The seafood, banana and drinks they consumed may be their last feast on Virgin Island as the group of tourists was reportedly charged a whopping P26,100. A video showing their cooked orders handwritten on a piece of paper with the corresponding prices went viral. The breakdown of the P26,100 meal is as follows: abalone, P2,500; fish sabaw (soup), P1,800; fish kilaw (cooked in vinegar), P3,000; fish sugba (grilled), P2,500; scallops, P3,000; oyster, P3,000; squid, P2,500; baby squid, P1,500; sea urchin, P2,300; soft drinks, P1,300; beer, P1,000; lato (seaweed), P800; and banana cue, P900.
