La Familia Restaurant (Baliuag, Bulacan)

We just had lunch at La Familia Restaurant in Baliuag, Bulacan. This restaurant was recently featured in the Inquirer so we decided to give it a try.

The La Familia Restaurant is located along the Dona Remedios Trinidad Highway in Baliuag. They are located just after the end of the overpass. It is a Turo-Turo Type of Restaurant. For the KareKare, we waited for 30 Minutes.



We ordered the adobong pusit, kaldereta, inihaw na bulik (?) And kare kare.

Adobong Pusit - the squid was very tender. Their version of this dish is on the sweet side, this must be how they cook it in Bulacan. Nonetheless, it was good for me.


Kalderetang Baka - beef was very tender. Their version probably uses more liver paste / spread than tomato sauce. Their Kaldereta is very good! The sauce alone is very good. Though a different kind from what I am used to, I like their version.


Inihaw na Bulik - I do not know if this is the correct name of the fish. The fish was grilled, garlic was sprinkled on top. The fish tasted fresh.


Kare Kare - this is another variant of kare kare. La Familia's KareKare was featured in the newspaper and rightfully so. Their Kare Kare has pumpkin as a variant. The sauce is very delicious. It has a distinct taste, which tastes like coconut. The meat used was so soft it easily seperates from the bone. This is a delicious dish that La Familia should be proud of.

Aling Pining's Crispy Pata (La Loma, Quezon City)

Image
One of Metro Manila's BEST Crispy Pata can be found in a Garage. I found about Aling Pining's Crispy Pata in a FB Comment a few months ago. The Commenter just said the best Crispy Pata can be found in a Garage in Halcon Street in La Loma. With Just Halcon Street as the address we went to La Loma 2 weeks ago in search of Halcon Street Crispy Pata. When we arrived at Halcon Street we just asked the people there where we can buy Crispy Pata. We passed by it already it turned out. It was indeed just a garage. It had a small sign. Halcon Street Crispy Pata was Aling Pinings Crispy Pata.  An Old Lady was the one frying the Crispy Pata. While a middle aged woman  was the one accepting orders. We bought a Crispy Pata (P400) and we were on our way. At home we were eager to finally taste the Crispy Pata. It did not disappoint. The trip to La Loma was worth it. Is it the best? My mom said the one in Marinduque is still the best. For me? Well i need to go back t...

D' Original Matutina's Seafood Restaurant (Dagupan, Pangasinan)

Image
The first time I heard about Matutina's was a few years ago when it was mentioned in the Inquirer that it is a favorite Restaurant of Former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. Since it was a long drive just to sample their food I had a hard time adjusting an open schedule just to go all the way to Pangasinan.  This morning we were able to finally find time to go all the way to Dagupan, Pangasinan to sample Matutina's. The one we went to is the D'Original Matutina's in Tondaligan, Dagupan, Pangasinan. They have another branch in Urdaneta Also. There is a Matutina's in Tarlac City but i guess this is not connected with the Matutina's. We Ordered the following: Sizzling Bangus - This was just Delicious. The Bangus was Milky. Meat was just perfect.  Inihaw na Pusit - Grilled to perfection. The Squid was tender. Buttered Shrimps - though it was not the buttter shrimp i wished for, the freshness of the shrimps made it good enough ...

If you are craving for Palabok and Tokwa't Baboy, the best place to go to is Tita Lulu's.  They serve delicious Palabok at Tita Lulu's (Located in front of PureGold Agora, inside the big parking lot). Always say you want the thin noodles when you order Palabok as it is better. The Tokwa't Baboy is equally delicious. Never forget to buy the palabok and tokwa't baboy together as they complement each other.
