The Waning Days of Crispy Pata and Lechon Tales for the Faint of Heart

so was the title of Kevin's email and the faint of heart should stay far away from Filipino food for it will give you a heart attack.
















Laing - Spicy Taro leaves in some sort of sauce. The only non-fried dish.
















Garlic fried rice.





















Sinigang na Baka. Soup is technically not a dish!
















Lechon Kawali - Fried pork skin
















More fried pork. Crispy Pata. Pork knuckle.
















Pinalutong na Tadyang - Fried crispy short ribs.
















Thank God Jeremy (not pictured) showed up to help finish off the meal. I was bending over sideways. Filipino food tends to do that to you.
















I had a piece. It was so thick it was like eating a stick of butter. Filipino flan is not to be taken lightly





















Kevin somehow managed to put away a Halo Halo. But Kevin does have a second stomach devoted to sweets and dessert.
