Since it is a beach resort and spa, it had a wide parking area. 



We were approached by the staff who led us to our table.  We passed by a cafe bar which served hot drinks.  


They have another bar for coffee and liquor.  


Finally, we reached our table with a perfect view of the beach.  After they took our orders, we didn't mind gazing into the sea watching surfers have some fun.


Big Kahuna Bar and Restaurant had a route towards the beach passing by their open kitchen.

Food

Tapas Menu/Appetizers

♥ Calamari (275 php)

For starters, we got the Calamari.  It was a Calamari deep-fried in golden brown crispy batter and drizzled with parmesan and slices of red bell pepper.  It was served their spicy aioli dip.  We, Tsinoy Foodies, loved this dish very much.  We couldn't stop munching on these until the platter was wiped clean.  

Sandwiches

Kahuna Clubhouse (275 php)

The Kahuna Clubhouse is their version of the famous clubhouse sandwich.  It is a double-decker sandwich with bacon and grilled chicken breast marinated in herb and spices with fresh green lettuce, mayonnaise  tomatoes in between whole wheat toasts.  It was also served which french fries which fellow Tsinoy Foodie Kurt devoured on.

Everyday Combo Meals

Combo 3 (good for 4-6 person) (1,200 php)

We decided to try their Combo 3 which was good for sharing.  Combo 3 has an eggplant salad, grilled bangus, grilled squid, pork barbecue, tuna ceviche, chicken inasal and rice served on a native bamboo platter.  I would not recommend ordering this.  Everything was just so-so.  The pork barbecue and the chicken inasal was a bit overcooked and dried.  Quite frankly, we preferred my local uncle's household home-cooking compared to this. 

Entrees

♥ Blue Marlin (In Season) (350 php)

The grilled Blue Marlin fillet is served with your choice of mashed potato, rice or french fries and buttered vegetables.  We opted for mashed potato.  The Blue Marlin is tender and succulent.  Compared to our last grill dish this was a way better.  

Fresh Buko Juice (75 php)

We all had the Fresh Buko Juice which is on our opinion, the best refresher from the sizzling hot weather.  

Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Big Kahuna Bar and Restaurant offers a nice ambiance with a beautiful beach view.  But, I find the hefty price not worth spending for the food quality.  We were so glad that we didn't pay for the food otherwise this would have been a regrettable expense that will tremendously affect our humble backpackers budget.  On the other hand, if you prefer to dine and relax without minding the price, this is a good choice.  This is my aunt's favorite restaurant in La Union.
