Davao Part I

In an attempt to write about our vacation in Davao, here's Part I. What to write about? The food! For some reason, Meg didn't want to eat, ANYTHING. She complains about everything tasting funny. Good thing she likes fruits and Davao after all is the city of fruits or is it flowers?

So, she ends up eating fruits all the time. It doesn't matter where we were, all she will eat are fruits. She especially loves watermelon and durian. Later on, she discovered Jollibee's chicken joy.

Another thing that she eats is what she calls the chocolate bread. What is chocolate bread? It's pan de sal na sinawsaw sa chocolate milk. At first, she didn't want to eat pan de sal, she preferred the loaf bread but later on, she requested pan de sal. Mommy, I want the bread that looks like this. (cups her hands together)

Our first night in Davao, it was probably around midnight when she said that she's hungry. So, we raided Lola's pantry and opened a can of sausage or was it corned beef. Then, after finishing the can, she's still hungry. So, I asked somebody to cook an egg for her. But, she was still hungry, I forgot what she ate after that.

Another favorite was the mini-orange. She discovered this at Aunt A's bridal shower. They had all kinds of food on the table but what she wanted was the centerpiece. The centerpiece was grapes and mini-oranges. In fairness, those mini-oranges were really good.

Soup was another hit for her. They went to Lisa's and she said she had soup with shells on it. And, of course, she loved the chicken barbecue. And lastly, when we went to Lupon, this was on the 30th, she told me that the lechon skin was really good.
