Saturday Morning i woke up and saw this outside our grandparents house.And everybody was busy preparing our food because we will go to the beach as planned.It only happens once in awhile because my aunt and uncle stays in manila together with their two kids..

I helped to put marinated pork on the barbeque Stick.

You might notice here that there was no chair around the table just like the usual table set up.This is actually one of their tradition in their area as it was in the province and far from the city.And also i taste what they called (KILAWEN) just like fresh raw pork cut into thin slices blanched with vinegar then let it sit for a few minutes and drain then add onions salt and pepper and chillies if you want.The taste was new to me honestly..

This one is better its called (DINAKDAKAN).Just like a roasted pork but most on the pig ears and neck part cut into thin slices then mix with the pig’s brain,vinegar onions salt and pepper and chillies also if you like.It taste really good I swear.It was boiled first until tender then grill real quick..

Next is this one the pig’s belly it was simply grilled but i dont know why it turns out to be black maybe because it was not plain charcoal that was used to cook this they used woods so maybe because of the fire..I hold this for quite a long time because i love the smell it makes me feel hungry..

After eating me and my uncle decided to walk around and found this mango tree and took picture.And get our things ready so we can go to beach as early as possible.
