Cao-oy (or Cao-uy) is an area off the coast of Olango Island that is dotted with several floating restaurants. Actually, the more correct name would be “stilted restaurants,” for they were not really floating but resting on wooden stilts. These restaurants have been a common stop for tourists who are on an island-hopping trip around Mactan and nearby islands. The place was spacious and incredibly relaxing. Just admiring the view of the island and the Olango Channel was enough to kill the time as we were waiting for our food to be served.

These stilted restaurants offer fresh seafood. The system is simple. You choose the main ingredient from an array of fresh catches, often contained in basins. These include prawns, crabs, lobsters, fishes, and a whole lot of shellfishes. Then, you tell the cook how you want them prepared — grilled, fried, steamed, boiled, whatever. You can even make requests and they will do it your way. Well, that’s about it. You may now relax and wait for the dishes to be served. But hey, it’s pricier than your regular restaurants.  Read More:  http://www.thepoortraveler.net/2013/03/cao-oy-olango-island-cebu-philippines/
