The concept of this restaurant is to feel the sensation of eating in bamboo saung, similar to a pavilion. In Segara Bambu, there are indoor and outdoor dining areas. In the outdoor area, visitors can enjoy a meal in the pavilion above the fish pond, accompanied by the breeze. Of course, Lea prefers to eat in the outdoor area. The menu served in this restaurant includes a variety of processed seafood. However, for those who don't like seafood, you can also order a variety of chili sauces with fried or grilled fish, not to forget the fresh vegetables.

Julie took another look and said, "It's not much, but I can still make you a fish soup!" The fish are indeed small, with the largest one weighing only about half a catty, and the other two estimated to be around three to four taels. Julie said as she directly carried the bamboo basket and walked into the bamboo house. Behind the bamboo house, there was a fish pond made by an old man, which was fed by the stream. However, with Roberto's fishing skills, it is estimated that even after ten or eight years, there might not be a single fish in the bathtub.

Just moving water to carry sound away and erase memory. As the sun finally dipped behind the canopy, the river changed character. Cicadas screamed. Birds fell silent. The Sixaola thickened with shadows, its surface broken only by the slow glide of a long, narrow boat approaching from the Panamanian side —engine cut early, drifting in like a rumor. The Panamanian lancha with flat bottom and a shallow-draft hull let it skim silently over slow river currents and sandbars. Well used by fishermen, banana workers, and river traders— these boats have moved fish by day and contraband by night for decades. Locals joke that a lancha has “two manifests.”

Hearing the old man's words, Samuel had no choice but to swallow a mouthful of meat and quickly put the second piece into his mouth. Only then did the old man smile with satisfaction. "Although the Moonlight Ghost Fish eats everything, it always lives in deep water and eats carefully, unless..." "Unless we use bait that is like a snake or an earthworm to fish it?" Samuel was chewing hard while trying to divert his attention to avoid the taste that would affect his swallowing. "How do you know, Young Master?" The old man smiled gently. "Not only do we know, but we also know that the thing like rubber mud is used to catch the fish, right?" Samuel also smiled bitterly.

minute by minute my curiosity was building more. Aling Milan chuckled off what I’ve said. "You are funny hija." "Eh where is it?" I purse my lips. "In that fishpond hija, it is a freshwater pond with fishes like milkfishes, shrimp, and crabs. That's what the workers taking care of." Aling Milan explained again. "But, is there such a thing?" putting my finger below the chin. "Yes hija, there was such a thing." Manang went back to her way and then put away the things she had brought her to my room.

Not worth harvesting yet. So he left them alone for now. Returning home, he handed the mutated white fish to Lola. Tonight's dinner would be steamed fish—and, of course, giant lobster as well. The women were slightly surprised at the strange-looking fish at first, even questioning whether it was edible. But once the steam rose and the aroma of fish filled the air, they were all instantly tempted. The lobster was also divided into two preparations—steamed and garlic butter. Both emitted an irresistible fragrance. When dinner time arrived, everyone eagerly picked up their utensils, anticipation written all over their faces.

Her tone reflected pride in her last statement. As Marius had hoped, we proceeded to the dining room for lunch. The spread on the table was delightful: Paksiw na Bangus, a savory Filipino dish made with milkfish marinated in vinegar, garlic, and spices, creating a delectable balance of sourness and richness. Accompanying it was Tortang Talong, an eggplant omelet, where grilled eggplants are dipped in beaten eggs and then fried to perfection. For dessert, we enjoyed Buko Pandan, a refreshing Filipino delicacy made with young coconut strips mixed with pandan-flavored gelatin, tapioca pearls, and sweetened cream.

She marveled at the ingenuity of the local Zhuang and Yao ethnic minority groups who had created this breathtaking landscape over centuries, their agricultural practices harmonizing with the natural contours of the land. In Guilin, Luna also had the opportunity to witness the traditional art of cormorant fishing, a centuries-old fishing technique where trained cormorant birds are used to catch fish. Luna watched in awe as the skillful fishermen commanded their birds to dive into the water and resurface with a fish in their beaks. It was a unique cultural experience that highlighted the deep connection between humans and nature in this region.

Luna laughed while pointing at Zachary, Maximo, and Ezekiel, who stayed quiet and ignored them. Soheila just laughed and looked towards Clever's team, who came back at their seat. "Let's eat real food now." She waved her hand, and the plates of Clever's team with the burned fish in it had disappeared, and a new plate appeared. She waved her hand, and a lot of dishes had appeared on their table. The aroma of the Tilapia with Corn Salsa, Baked Tilapia, Chili, and Buttered Salmon, and Easy-glazed salmon were too strong that made Clever's team forget about the burned fist. Their mouth was watering because of the strong aroma.

Jessy nudged her and motioned her to shut her mouth, then she cast a brief look at mona's direction. "Is that your only dish, Marigold? Is that enough for you?" Lorry asked when she saw one Sunny side up in Marigold's tupperware. "Well, there's nothing I can do, my budget almost run out. But it's okay, because..... I brought something to make my food makes better." Marigold took the bottle of fermented fish paste ang gently put it on the top of her rice. The fishy smell scattered around the area near their table and this made the other diners to take a look on their group, their face contorted as they smell the unpleasant smell.
