Dining options have grown over the years. But, there just seems something about Filipino food that makes me crave for it once in awhile. It's kind of like when you wander far to the most amazing places but then, you know your heart still wants to go back home. So this time, I ended up trying Mangan which specializes in Kapampanan food.
I've always believed that Kapampangan food is one of the tastiest of our local cuisine.
Having had several food trips in Pampanga, I would say this is up a notch over the restaurants there when it comes to interiors. This makes it more appealing to expats and balikbayans.
Food
Aliw-Aliwang Sisig
When it comes to Kapampangan dishes, how can we forget sisig? The Sisig ni Mely came out as a surprise for us because of its unusual style of serving - wrapped in banana leaves.
It gives you the pleasure of unwrapping your irresistible order of Sisig ni Mely.
Manyamang Gule
To lessen your guilt, why not balance with an order of Laing with Dulong?
Crispy Pata
That is.. before we proceed to the highlights of our meal. Some prefer the Original Crispy Pata.
Perhaps because of my Chinese root and being used to eating peking duck that I had fun with the Pritson Pata.
But, hey I dare all the spicy food lovers out there to try the Patang Demonyo.
Mapaling Sebo
One bang for the buck to order for sharing is their Bulalong Baka with Mais.
Mga Karne
One of the best to order is the Kare-Kare Buntot ng Baka.
Merienda
For staple, you can skip the rice dishes for the Pansit Pusit or...
the very interesting Pancit Puti. How can be amazingly savory and delicious without any sauce???
Ispesyal Ning Bale
Save room for Bibingka
or Puto Bumbong.
and Puto Bumbong.
Panghimagas
But, when it comes to Kapampangan dessert, you shouldn't miss the Tibok-tibok with Latik.

After roaming around Camp John Hay in Baguio City, the we Tsinoy Foodies together with the Baguio Bliss 2012 event group settled ourselves to the nearest Food Hut we could find. It had a carinderia (canteen) style. Select the food you want, pay at the counter and get your order once reheated.

Because I have a sensitive stomach, I only get to eat these casual street foods at home. But, people at our household are not favor of deep fried foods so we rarely cook those. I was glad that the Camp John Hay Food Hut has those. We ordered all kinds for sharing.
It was my first time to try the Chicken Balls and I didn't like it. It tasted dominantly of pepper. I still like Kikiam the most. =)
Seeing that they had Puto Bumbong, I just had to order. I love Puto Bumbong. Their version was not as tight as the ones I've tried in Manila but the taste was better. It was served with coconut shreds and muscovado sugar.

Eating at the Camp John Hay Food Hut is nothing special but still a fun bonding experience for the group. It is also a convenient place to eat when at Camp John Hay.

I won't deny it! We love Bibingka and Puto Bumbong (see previous entry) so here I am sharing about it again. Every time we go to Malate Church, we would always buy at Mommy Lucy. It is located just outside The Aristocrat Restaurant at Malate.

| Bibingka (75 php) |
 |
| Puto Bumbong (65 php) |
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Mommy Lucy's Bibingka and Puto Bumbong is offered for an average price and for that you get what you pay for. It is enough to satisfy our yearning for Bibingka and Puto Bumbong but it is not the best available.

Since its new year, I might as well share this treats that are perfect for Noche Buena. Whenever we see Ferino's Bibingka at various malls or booths like last Christmas Noel bazaar, we simpy can't resist their Bibingka and Puto Bumbong.
Everyone in our family loves Bibingka and Puto Bumbong so we've tried out so many Bibingka's and Puto Bumbong. Ferino's is the most frequent one we buy because it has the most booths and branches. But, we only buy from Ferino's if its cooked by charcoal because the ones cooked by electric cookers are not as delicious.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Ferino's Bibingka is a bit expensive for its price. But, the quality as long as its charcoal cooked is consistent so you can satisfy your Bibingka or Puto Bumbong craving without having to risk being disappointed. Other than the price, I'd say Ferino's Bibingka is certainly worth the try.

Ferino's Bibingka is wrapped in wax paper and served hot as it is always freshly cooked when ordered. It has bits of white cheese ("quesong puti" in Filipino) and salted egg ("itlog maalat" in Filipino). The serving size is just right. It is best eaten with the coconut shreds that comes with it. Ferino's version of Bibingka is good. It enough to satisfy our Bibingka craving any time. But, it is not the best we've had.

| Puto Bumbong (60 php) |
If its one thing I love more than Puto Bumbong. You can also add grated coconut and enjoy. This only has a light butter and sugary taste but its stickiness makes it so much fun to it.

After watching the Symphony of Lights at Ayala Triangle, we walked on over to Distrito Night Market. It is located at the parking lot of Makati Medical Center. Distrito Night Market had the same organizers as Mercato Centrale so expect a lot of common concessionaires among them.
Although they just opened when we arrived, the place was already packed. In fact, although we wanted to eat inside to smell the savory smoke of street foods, we had to seat outside in an almost full table too.

| Happy Fanshu |
I like the Osmanthus Tea at Happy Fanshu. Although they have other variants, I find the rest tad too sweet for my taste.
Filipino Delicacies
 |
| Misis M's |
I brought home a Puto Bongbong from Misis M's because as stated their recipe is ancient from 1940. Four pieces cost 65 php. My family said it was good but not the best we've tried.

| Carlo's Kitchen |
Be sure to try the Crunchy Belly at Carlo's Kitchen for an affordable price of 90 php. It's really crunchy and meaty at the same time. It's similar to bacon but with less fats in it. It's really good.
 |
| Polland |
No need to go to Binondo just to enjoy authentic China Town food. Polland offers delicious Chinese food at prices below 100 php. Plus, you can always take home their delectable hopia. I love their hopia because it is tasty but not too sweet.

| Medchef |
Another outlet for Medchef Cakes. Our first encounter with Medchef by Chef Hasset Go was six months ago. Kurt and I got to taste a lot of their sweet creations. I love their Red Velvet Cake the most.
There's a lot more to try so we'll most likely be back for more. What do you think we should try out next?
