  2. its official Doc Philip - "ber" months na..and by next month, there's going to be free "painit" (its something like you have something hot to eat during the very early mornings though its not breakfast).... for the Misa de Gallo mass attendees passing by that road too :-)

  6. Bug-eyed? Hyper? After just one cup of coffee? I guess you're a tea-person rather than a coffee-person.

  7. yes, guilty as charged...

    though funnily enough there are times, you give me coffee and I either feel hungry after or go to sleep....

  8. San mga photos? Type ko yung pork belly saka snapper. Gusto ko rin ang ceviche pero di ko kilala yung tangigue. Ano ang tangigie sa English?

  9. for the tanguigue question, I wasn't sure...so I googled...and saw it here as Spanish mackerel

    please check the picture as this is how I eat the fish (naka-grill), though its also used for ceviche (I like another type of fish for my ceviche pero I don't know what its called in English as its a smaller kind of fish).

    the above is just a note...hahaha..coz I was just bringing my phone to the resto (so parang FB na status lang)...photos to follow later..

  11. nowadays though, nakakasawa, if you ask what white fish it is in restos, thinking maybe they will serve lapu-lapu, blue marlin, danggit (yes, those used for the crispy danggit grow up and are lovely for grilling), kitong (ewan sa english)....

    e ang fish ay cream dory usually sa fish dishes ngayon dito
