Some people have asked me to update this blog. I will today. I've been thinking about why I haven't updated this site in a while. I guess I just got somewhat disillusioned about certain aspects of food and I realized one important thing:
A lot of so called "high class" restaurants provide what are supposedly delicious "versions" of classic dishes with their "twists" and "fusions" created by "chefs".
I realized it's all just BULLSHIT.
I've TRIED a lot of these supposedly high class restaurants and came away disappointed. Last month I ate some grilled squid from a sidewalk tuto-turo here in San Pablo and the thing was far far more delicious than a grilled squid I ate at a high end restaurant in Makati. I'm like WTF.
I've stopped trying to convince myself that these so called high end places serve delicious food. Because quite honestly, they don't. They really just should stop making stupid fusions and stupid chef versions and stop obsessing over "presentation" and just cook the damn food as they should be cooked.
Chicken/Pork adobo tastes so much better from Amboy's at our local palengke than a nicely plated expensive adobo at some restaurant in Greenbelt.
That's just the truth.
