Ngo-Hiong

This food is not for the faint-hearted. Just kidding! Hehe.

I'm not even sure if this is available here in Manila. It was my friend's mom who introduced me to this weird-tasting lumpia look-a-like food. Its either you love this food or you hate it. Luckily, I belong to the love-it group. It's made from labong which is one gets from the trunk of a coconut tree, then added with tons of weird tasting spices and maybe some meat. I was told that the ones being sold in Guadalupe, Cebu was the best in that area. And now, I'm smitten!




I've also tried the ngo-hiong being sold by CNT but it tasted different from the ones made by the seller in Guadalupe.

Boracay's Hidden Gem: Mama's Fish House

I've always wanted to dine at Mama's Fish House in Boracay but wasn't able to for some forgotten reasons already. Then the pandemic happened and we're in lockdown or limited travel movement for almost two years. And guess what? One of the nicest thing to happen on our recent trip to Boracay was to discover that Mama's Fish House was located just outside the beach front of our hotel- Microtel by Wyndham Boracay . Talk about serendipity! 

RECIPE: TKG's Pan-Grilled Maya-Maya With Calamansi Butter Sauce

I chanced upon some fresh-looking Maya-Maya being sold near my daughter's school today so I bought some. I don't really have a dish in mind when I bought it. Maybe fried, sinigang ... And upon checking the fridge and pantry (no more olive oil), I decided to marinate the fish in calamansi to remove the fishy taste. I pan-grilled the fish being careful not to burn it. Then I minced some garlic, cooked it in butter, added some salt and poured the sauce on top of the fish. And its ready to eat. And oh, I also steamed some cauliflower as a side-dish. Bon appetit!
