For starters we had Sinigang na Bangus Belly sa Bayabas. Another version of sinigang with guava as the souring agent. I don't eat bangus belly (or any fish belly for that matter) so I just asked for the soup which was a little thicker than the usual sinigang. Mamu's version of this is always sour (something which I never enjoyed), so the sweetish guava flavor came as an unexpected surprise. I would enjoy this soup anytime sans bangus belly. But alas, I forgot to take a picture.
Hands down, my favorite is Kare-Kare ala Bistro Remedios.
Oxtail...fork tender, sauce...nothing but peanut goodness, veggies...cooked just right, bagoong...the perfect salty complement. For this dish alone, I don't mind going back again and again and again. Seriously, I'm in love with Abe's Kare-Kare!
Knockout Knuckle really knocked us out.
Tender pata fried to a crisp topped with crunchy garlic bits. Need I say more? This is one of the many reasons why I *heart* pork.
Binukadkad na Plapla is sight to behold. We all pulled out our camera to take a shot.
Fried plapla served on a bed of mustasa leaves with buro, fermented rice, on the side. A treat for the fish lover, something I'm not. But I liked this, except for binukadkad part this is quality straightforward fried fish.
As usual, Abe's never disappoints. Great food and great value for money each and every time.
