It Happened to Me

Happy Philippine Independence Day!

Happy Philippine Independence Day!

We’re celebrating with some Filipino food from Mata’s Philippine Cuisine:

We went with:

  • Kare-kare (Oxtail/peanut sauce stew)
  • Dinuguan (Pork/blood stew — not for lightweights, and it’s Anitra’s favorite Filipino dish)
  • Lumpia hubad (The answer to the question “What if you took the vegetable filling from Filipino fresh spring rolls and just turned it into its own stir-fry dish?”)
  • Bibingka (Coconut rice cake)

I’ll be enjoying my dinner with an appropriate drink:

And we’ll probably watch this tonight:
