Becky was the first one to introduce me to  Amber  where she brought pork barbeque and pancit . It has been a long time eating there. Carmina was craving for pork barbeque. I had suggested to Becky to dine in person at Ambers after picking her up at her home. Upon entering there weren't that many people more on take outs we had looked over the menu since the print was too small to read decided to take a picture and zoom it on my phone. Becky and Carmina decided to share five pieces of pork barbecue. Becky ordered carbonara , and I chose one to serve of rice. You can choose where to sit when dining inside Amber. There is a restroom available, but it does not provide toilet paper, and it is a unisex facility. If you have leftovers can ask for assistant to have it wrapped up for you. Becky also recommended to try their pichi pichi which had ordered for takeout bring it home to eat.

Exotic Filipino Food

There was one time I was visiting the Philippines for vacation. One person was offering me to eat rice porridge with chicken feet. 

I remember my parents always told me when you are visiting some one's house and they offer you food. You really need to accept and eat their food.

For some reason I couldn't accept the food because I was shock to see a chicken feet soak in a bowl filled with rice soup in it. 

I just said, I was full.

Sometimes they also cook it adobo chicken feet.

Just to warn you it is best to ask the person you attend a birthday party what the dishes are made of some times they serve goat in their food. They call it kambing in the Philippines. Once you hear that word you know what that is.

They cook it as kaldareta, adobo or sinapalukang soup.

Kambing (goat) Kalderata

My father in-law loves eating it and you see the head floating in the bowl. Oh my. I can't even seat down at the same table seeing a head of a goat in a bowl. 

Do you eat escargo (snail)? Here in the Philippines they call it kuhol. It is cooked in gata (coconut milk) or adobo.

Adobo Kahol (snail)
I may be Filipino, but I don't eat all their food. There are more food selection to choose from. Are you brave enough to try it when you come and visit?

This is another exotic food that Filipino dare for the Foreigners to try. Some people are only brave to eat this when they are drunk. 

They call it balut it is an cooked egg and there is a chick inside with a hard yellow egg inside. 


You would eat this in one eating and swallow this all up. They put salt on it just how you eat an hard boiled egg.

I remember  when my niece and nephew came to the house and their Grand father wanted them to try it. I made up a story that the chick inside is an alien and it had a white helmet.

They went to tell their Grand father about it when they we're ask to eat it.

At first the Grand father didn't understand what they we're replying too.

Later he understood and laughed at them.

In Pampanga a restaurant in Every body's Cafe my Father in-law loves eating betute (frog legs). It is cooked in variety dishes such as tinola, grilled, kare kare and adobo.

He loves all these other insects and tapang kalabaw (buffalo)
