Kinilaw na Bariles:


Pansit Palabok:

Bopis


La Paz Batchoy...although I think they used mami noodles

tinola... paksiw...

i can just go to the store and buy it tohugh.

what i really want is:

SISIG

OMFG.

Adobo ftw.

I found this one

Sisig:

I LOVE LONG GO NESA

Really!? How loooong do you like em?

sisig...

it's so crispy, sizzling and sisig.

they don't make sisig in canada.

Hey Bixie, just curious... Is there any Filipino restaurant in U.K. that you know of? Have you ever ate there? Just want to know how the Filipino foods in U.K. tastes like.

hahah omg, it just made my mouth water, wheres my bib?

well i plan to go back to the Phillipines this summer!! hahah all the food I can eat!!!!!

I crave for Adobo, Palabok(omg I only tasted this like last year)

Lugay and bopis looks very good!

Sorry for replying to this (I know i'm not Bixie) theresa filipino restaurant called Josephine's just off of Rathbone place in Tottenham Court Road, and a few others in Earls Court.

question: is sisig the same as bopis?

looking at the pic― probably. lol.

i've never heard of bopis.

you probably had...you just never called it that.

hey hamlet, what kind of food does your family cook? of course they're Chinese and Filipino, but do they synthesize dishes? like i don't know, sweet and sour adobo or some$hit?

LOL no. no 'fusion' type stuff. hahaa.

but my family cooks both. more often than not we have filipino and chinese food during the same meal.

except for breakfast. with breakfast it's either american style breakfast, longsilog or i go 'yumcha' at some chinese restaurant.

you can't mix longanisa with siomai. that'd be horrible.

Tapsilog:

eew @ eating tapsilog with scrambled log and not fried log.

I like me some tinapang bangus (smoked milkfish). As soon as I smell it being fried, I feel like I;m back in the PI. The black fatty part is the best!

^love it. i also miss dried fish and vinegar with crushed garlic.

J/K

Manong Fishball Vendor:

yuck

that's the part i scrape off.

No, they are not the same.

If I'm not mistaken, bopis is comprised mainly of internal organs (lungs, liver, kidney, heart, etc).

The main components of sisig is taken from the head of the pig: the pork cheeks, ears, and nose.

I approve this message

goodness, i havent had that for so long . i love baloot - i want some ..

This edible seaweed:



Plus bangus:



Equals food heaven!

mongo!

Bulalo nad Pochero this winter:



Sinigang na Hipon:

u fool, thats the best part of bangus!

I like kare-kare, dinuguan, and tocino.

I can't stand tilapia(its aquariam fish) and bangus is just disgusting.

My lola makes the best mungo...ever.

to kurt, thanks for clarifying that.

to mongo, . the Ilocano version has like malunggay ("kalamunggay") and tons of pork rinds.


this is awesome. red duck egg and tomatoes.

the bisayan version has way too much lanka

I prefer munggo with ampalaya leaves, and sometimes the fruit as well!



As for the malunggay, we use either the leaves or fruit (if it is young and tender enough).

kare kare at dinuguan. also linagang baka na may saging. konting soy sauce at maraming kanin. wow... im freakin hungry. lolz!

my dad's ilocano, and he makes good mongo

Kare Kare

eww i don't like kare kare

omg, the peanut sauce is great .... it tastes like "Bo Sate" from Viet food except we add Bagoong.

I hate this thread i get hungry every time look in here....
