The Kalilangan Festival in General Santos City is ongoing will last until March 1. I managed to check the food booths in the festival grounds before I sauntered off to the garden show, which was one of the attractions. I walked around the food booths and saw a lot of streetfoods being sold – kwekkwek, turon, etc… What caught my fancy were the tuna balls, tuna spring rolls, tuna embotido and tuna chorizo. I had a fun time sampling all these tuna delights.

There were other attractions as well – shows, rides, pageants, etc… For more Kalilangan Festival events, head over to Bariles Republic.

Thanks for reading my blog. I'm a corn breeder who also loves to eat and cook. Most of the recipes in this blog are dishes that I have cooked in my own kitchen. This blog is an off shoot way way back in 2007 when as PhD student, I had a major writer's block for writing my dissertation. So instead I turned into blogging my exploits in the kitchen. I've come long way then. getting my PhD and currently cooking in my third kitchen so far. My dog, named Pasta and I are based in Phitsanulok, Thailand.
