Here's the entire story of who won:
OKAY. To cut the long story short, Mañana is the victor! But it would have been boring had I not explained the reason to you, wouldn't it? So there you go:
MAÑANA MEXICAN CUISINE
Since I was constantly begging for us to have a nice burrito in the island, Mr. C asked me to go search for where we can find it. Mañana was the restaurant that decided to go for among the list of others in my search results.
BURRITO PLATTER (PHP 363)
You can choose either chicken or beef to be the main ingredient for your burrito platter. Of course, we chose beef.
Their version of burrito is slightly spicy. There is a good kick in every bite. The chilli filling is thick.
The burrito meal comes with four types of sauce. The red ones are the spicier.
Mr. C liked their version of the burrito, perhaps because it has his ideal level of spice. After eating, I asked him, "Would you condemn me if told you that I still liked Army Navy's burrito?" He frowned in confusion.
WANNA-CHOW-AGAIN METER: It's just an "OK. BEEN HERE" for us.

Boracay Island Malay, Aklan
MAYAS RESTAURANT
Since I was not that satisfied with what Mañana offered us, we went to the other Mexican restaurant which also got some good reviews in TripAdvisor, Maya's.
Looking at the price of their burritos, our expectations were pretty high. They have different choices of burrito but we took what we found as most interesting, Carnitas. Upon ordering, Mr. C said, "This better be good."
CARNITAS BURRITO (PHP 468)
An avocado lover since birth, I was a bit sad when the server told us that they're out of avocado and at the same time, we appreciated their honesty. They said that they would just compensate it by adding the other ingredients.
When we took our first bite, we looked at each other with our eyes dilating in awe. It's the best burrito I ever tasted, I told Mr. C. "Not for me," he said, "but yeah, it's delicious." Their burrito really passed my requirements: seasonings are well-balanced, not too spicy, it's heavy and full of diverse ingredients and the sour cream is addictive!
WANNA-CHOW-AGAIN METER: Mr. C jokingly said, "We should have splurged our anniversary dinner funds here." I smiled as an agreement. So yeah, we definitely want to go back and taste their other burritos! TAKE US BACK HERE!
