Philippines' "yummiest" regional cuisine...

I'm a vegetarian... do you have any vegetarian foods? I think he was complaining about the pork.

we have lots of vegetable cuisines here too, since we are mostly agricultural country.. we have chopsuey (like chinese) consisting of bean sprouts, cabbage and celery.. then theres the famous pinakbet with bitter mellon, eggplant, tomato, ginger, okra, string beans and others. then another famous spicy veggie cuisine is the laing, a spicy and creamy dish of gabi (taro) leaves with chili cooked in coconut milk. and there are lots more! you still can enjoy our cuisine with these veggies..

he said that? theres nothing gross in most of our regional cuisines! the inasal is chicken sauteed in herbs and spices then grilled. bagnet is pork deep fried. sizzling sisig is dish made from pigs head and usually seasoned with lemon and chili, although now most sisig have the meat in it.. longganisa is a local version of chorizo... if you try them, i assure you (100%) that you'll gonna love them and will be asking for more! ;)

i also like them, but i had been eating vigan longganisa and bagnet since i was a teener! so im not that excited to see them in my dinner plate, unlike chicken inasal, which is hard to find here in the metro...you can find chicken inasal here and there but the real taste isnt there... back in vigan there was this resto that served pasta with longganisa! it was the best.. sad to say they dont serve that one anymore.. another vigan cuisine, empanada and ukoy! yummy...

Oh yeah! I enjoyed eating that Vigan empanada. Oh yeah, I forgot to add that I also like those street foods like isaw na manok, fishballs, tokneneng... Chicharon too! Hehe ^_^

if you want the next to real thing empanada, theres a stall in sm small of asia that sells vigan empanada and ukoy... oh i miss eating toknene, tokneneng, isaw, betamax in the province.. much cleaner and safer ;)
