chard in coconut milk

Yups.. You got it right. That's my viand for our lunch meeting with my boss at Cafe Laguna, Robinsons building, Limketkai Center. They cooked it just right and the taste was good also, very good. So yummy! One of my favorites, chard in coconut milk or laing. First had a taste of that Bicol delicacy at Legaspi City almost 6 years ago. Since then, it had become one of my favorites. Much preferred over their other delicacy, Bicol Express. It’s main ingredient is dried taro root or what we call dahon ng gabi mixed with coconut milk plus some spices that made it truly from the heart of the Bicol region. It is good for the health concscious people but of course, I'm not one of them. I just love vegetables and it so happened that laing is one of my favorite viands. Even look for it in restaurant menus. There's an available laing in can though, I forgot the name of the producer. Its also delicious, mixed with tuna. But nothing beats freshly cooked. For sure, one of these days, when I can dine at Cafe Laguna, be ordering laing once again. Try it.
