SPECIAL DELICACIES NGA LAMIAAN KAAYO :)

TINAP-ANAN

 

A very famous tapahan in the province of Cebu is in Danao City, a 45 minutes-1 hr drive from Cebu City.  Before reaching the city's church, there are plenty of stalls along the street that will surely catch your attention.  One stick of tinap-anan will cost 50-100 pesos depending on the size. The stores here are situated near the sea shore, so the fish are very fresh.

KISEO

 Its not that the Philippines doesn’t have cheese. It’s just that what an American would consider commonplace cheeses, like Parmesan or Swiss,  are imported and expensive. In an archipelago there simply isn’t a lot of room for cattle, which means not a lot of fresh milk or local cheese products. However, there is a tradition of cheese making here. It is called kiseo and typically uses carabao’s (water buffalo) milk.

 

CASAJOS

 

Tapas or “casajos” are a wide variety of appetizers, or snacks, in Spanish cuisine. They may be cold (such as mixed olives and cheese) or hot (such as chopitos, which are battered, fried baby squids). In select bars in Spain, tapas have evolved into an entire, and sometimes sophisticated, cuisine. In Spain, patrons of tapas can order many different tapas and combine them to make a full meal. In some Central American countries, such snacks are known as bocas. In Mexico, similar dishes are called "botanas."

The serving of tapas is designed to encourage conversation because people are not so focused upon eating an entire meal that is set before them Also, in some countries it is customary for diners to stand and move about while eating tapas.
