Bicolano Grub at Geewan

By Mustachio @mustachio2011
Being in Bicolandia, I just had to try Bicol Express. Bicolandia should have Bicol Express just about anywhere, right? Wrong! (Or maybe I was looking at the wrong places...) I really had no idea where to find it. Hunger got me hopping on a tricycle and asking the driver to take us to the best place for Bicol Express. Luckily, Mr Tricycle Driver, knew the right place - Geewan.
We checked out the menu board and ordered Bicol Express (the last serving available!) and two other dishes we've never heard before - pinangat and kinunot.
Bicolano Grub at Geewan
Bicol express has pork, shrimp paste, and, of course, never forget the chilies! Pinangat has taro leaves, chili, and pork in coconut milk, then wrapped in gabi leaves. Kinunot is made of fish, malunggay, and coconut milk. Man, oh man, this has got to be the most delicious meal I've had this trip. So delicious I ordered extra rice twice! Of the three dishes, I like Pinangat best. (I am drooling just writing this blog.) Anyone who knows how to cook Pinangat? Pleaseee teach me how!!!
Note: The above was shared with two other friends. I am not that big of a pig.

How this Bicolano lunch Bicol expressed thru Mustachio's pocket:
Was so hungry and focused on the food that I forgot to take down notes, but I am sure it did not exceed Php 400 for all 3 dishes and 3 servings of rice.
