Showing some love to one of our household favorite go to meal for ground pork. It is commonly called "giniling" which means ground meat. And this recipe usually have tomato sauce in it but some others preferred using fish sauce to season it. This is actually an easy meal to cook, it will take about 30 minutes.

Went to BGC to actually celebrate my father's birthday in the newly opened IHOP (International House of Pancakes) but unfortunately we were on the waiting list like the 40th on the list. Irritated by the thought of having to starve for the birthday celebration just for pancakes my father decided to dine in Abe. Abe is a Filipino Restaurant with a strong accent of Capampangan.

The taste of the food here is so rich. My personal favorites are the binagoongang baboy, kaldereta, crispy pata and kare - kare. What I didn't like so much was the Sinigang na Tanigue sa bayabas because it wasn't sour it was sweet most likely because they added cinammon in it.

 The ambient lighting and interior of the restaurant.

R-L: Watermelon, Calamansi and Orange juice

 Kaldereta

Kare Kare
