I actually have a filipino cookbook, but I haven’t taken a look through. I also have a book called Asia, and it covers the phillipines as well as china, japan, even india , skrilanka, and Laos. I love this book.

What’s your ethnic background? Are you purely American through and through?

Filipino cuisine is not as popular as other Asian cuisines, which is a pity since it’s mostly flavorful food with Spanish influences.

And about Japanese food, hehe, like you, I can eat Japanese food everyday! It’s one of my favorite cuisines, other than Filipino.

I haven’t gotten the opportunity to try many foods from the phillipines. My mom cooked american, and while I loveher cooking, I can make these myself and they don’t hold the magic of a food I could eat everyday. However, japenese foods, in particular sushi, is food I could easily eat everyday.

Interesting ha, everyone’s all going ketchup. Will try yours next time.

Oh! Japanese curry is also addictive for me. And Nem Nuong sounds like our local barbecue. It’s great with rice too so I can imagine why you love it. <3
