Between stations 1 and 2 are indeed the loudest place in Bora, where you find endless stretch of bars and resto, some with live band. You can eat fresh seafood anytime of the day/night as there are plenty of restos offering seafood dishes (grilled or cooked with sauce), and there are those which offer cooking services in case you opted to go to the market near the D'Mall and just buy your choices there. Resorts also offer cooking services, and price starts at php 100 per type of dish. You have to buy all the ingredients though.
For easy dining, I suggest you just go to the resto and order your choice of seafood and they will cook upon ordering. Price of crabs starts from php 100 per 100 grams. For prawns, lobster and other seafoods prices start from 250 per 100 grams. To give you a quick calculation, one big crab is almost 500 grams. Some don't weigh the crabs but rather offer at php 300 each. So just approximate the size of the seafood and calculate if the offer is a saver or not.
There are also several restos offering eat all you can dinner---beef, chicken, seafood --price starts from php 220 to 350 per person (unless you want the eat all you can at the Ambassador Hotel which will cost you php 585); price varies on the type of dishes and the number of choices. Most of the eat all you can don't include drinks, but there are a few which offers free bottomless iced tea.
There are also the tried and tested Andoks, Cindy's, Mang Inasal and Yellow Cab here. But for us, we wanted to try the untested ones. We gave in to the 260 per person eat all you can as my husband loves crabs and grilled tuna while the grilled clams intrigged my tastebuds.
For lunch, you can have sandwiches/ burgers. Grilled burger with chunky mushroom and cheese is best! It costs php 125. Just add a glass of lemonade for php 35 and potato wedges for php 70. Just double the cost for two.
If you still want rice for lunch, you can have a grilled specialties --squid with rice at php 130 to 150 per order; tuna or blue marlin at php 250; chicken bbq at php 90 to 120, pork bbq at php 70, porkchop at 70, and liempo at php 90. One can of softdrink at php 40 or san miglight at php 60.
Treating yourself with ice cream is great after lunch. Small cone costs php 25, large at php 65. Shakes or halo-halo is likewise mouthwatering! Costs php 50.
Bulalo and sisig are also very common on Filipino restos. An order of bulalo and sisig, two rice, two san miglight and two cans of softdrinks will cost you only five hundred pesos. But if you get the same order in a small resto inside the market (they call it D'Mall market) you can save by a hundred pesos. Well, the taste is different of course.
While grilled seafood ans stakes are everywhere, ihaw-ihaw also has its growing patrons --isaw costs php 10 to 15, dried squid costs php 30 to 40.
If breakfast isn't included in your accommodation package, there are plenty of restos offering breakfast. I saw one which offers continental breakfast with eat all you can eggs. Whew!
Various choices in food --Thai, Asian, French, Italian --name your cuisine, and Bora has it.
