I have a question for you. Do you usually eat using a spoon and fork? Well, I guess many of you may say “Yes” to my question. However, have you tried eating using your bare hands? If “No,” I’ve got to tell you, it feels so amazing. Today, I’m going to share with you my unforgettable experience in a Boodle Fight.
What is a Boodle Fight?
Does the words “Boodle Fight” ring a bell to you? Let me share a brief detail of what it is. Boodle fights originated in the Philippines, specifically within the military, where big piles of food are served in the middle of a long table. The “fight” in the name refers to grabbing and eating the food as much as the soldier can before others gran them. Today, it has transcended its military roots to Filipino tradition enjoyed by friends, families, and even tourists seeking a unique dining experience.
What to expect in a Boodle Fight?
In a Boodle Fight, the food is usually served on a table with banana leaves under it. The banana leaves serve as the plate of the food. Rice is typically placed at the center. You can also shape your rice depending on your preference; in this way, it makes the set-up more appealing. The dishes are placed on the top of the rice or on the sides. In a Boodle Fight, utensils are not used. People who join the Boodle Fight are expected to use their bare hands. This may sound not very good, but trust me, it’s way more exciting to do this!
What Dishes Are Usually Served on a Boodle Fight?
Of course, since you will use your hand, dishes that should be served in a Boodle Fight are Filipino lumpia style, Special Pancit, grilled pork, halang-halang ( spicy chicken), and other finger foods. You can also add seafood, depending on your preference.
Looks a lot? That is because there is a lot of food on one table. Now, if you are with your friends, camaraderie, your family, or you are on an outing, try to do a Boodle Fight. I can guarantee it’s more fun.
Nothing beats the camaraderie and fun of a traditional boodle fight!
That's indeed true!
