New Restaurant!

November 20, 2008

Archive post from 20 November 2008. Some details have changed since then. Since 2022 our daily thresher shark dives go to Kimud Shoal, not Monad Shoal, and we see threshers there every day of the year. For diving on Malapascua now, see our thresher shark guide and best time to dive.

We’ve been waiting for this moment for months, but finally it is here, our new restaurant is now open!!!
“Oscar’s” brings a new type of dining to Malapascua. We serve an eclectic mix of exciting international dishes made from the freshest ingredients, with an ever-changing menu based on the best produce available that day.
Executive chef, Gareth Brown, oversees all kitchen activities. We are also happy to welcome Charlie, an experienced chef and Marciel, our sous-chef. Together with the line cooks they make a dynamic team.
One of our aims is to bring a new type of dining experience to Malapascua: Good food served within 15 minutes, with top quality service and something for everyone.
After a great day’s diving, what better way to finish off your day than with an incredible meal? And it’s an excellent place to share your day’s photos, complete log books and browse our extensive library of fish books.
