If Monday’s breakfast at Tess’ was generous, yesterday’s breakfast spread was overwhelming.
I wasn’t able to take photos of the food because the servers came one after another bringing dishes of food and laying them until the table was almost overflowing. And the dessert wasn’t even served.
We started with the fruits
With the fruits and power drink alone, I was already full, as echoed by Celine. But we continued eating. Once again I had put on my cap of restrain.
-There was Pancit with generous trimmings of meat and veggies.
-A large platter of grilled blue marlin
-Big crabs with especial jackfruit slow cooked in thick coconut milk sauce.
-A big bowl of Humba (stewed pig knuckles in soy, vinegar with gin and little sugar) heated straight from the freezer since most of the food came from Allen, Samar
-Ham and the creamiest cheese from Holland with yummy pan de Manila pandesal
-Scrambled eggs cooked in butter
-Crunchy deep fried baby dangit
-More pickled fresh fish with ampalaya and talong.
In the vernacular, as Tess would often say, “ Saan ka pa?”
Maybe interpreted as “ what more do you like”.
We went home happy, tagging along our containers of pancit. Really, what more would you look for?
