I was in the vicinity of WTC when I got word that I needed to fly to Cebu, pronto. So I rushed to the mall to buy plane tickets. Didn't plan on having dinner but traffic was horrible going out of the area--turned out it was the night Aerosmith had their Manila concert at the MoA-Arena. I walked towards the bay area and decided to eat dinner while waiting for the traffic to ease.
I wanted fish and the waiter suggested Baked Boneless Bangus, it's new on their menu. It was flavorful but the flavors of cheese and butter were too rich and I didn't even finish half of the fish. Good thing I ordered adobong kangkong---its pleasant tartness countered the strong flavor of cheese. This adobong kangkong was quite delicious, so different from other adobong kangkong I've tasted before; even better than my mother's adobong kangkong, or apan-apan as what we call it in Ilonggo. Just don't tell her.:p

I don't know why there is a need for cheese with the baked bangus. I love cheese, but I cannot marry the flavor of cheese and bangus in my head.
ReplyDeleteI know of adobong sitaw, which my mom cooked for us, but I never heard of adobong kangkong. Ma i try nga.
That dish looks good and yes I missed adobong kangkong! ^_^
