Elegantly well presented.

I prayed, I wondered, hoped, that one day Anthony Bourdain will.

Thank You, Anthony Bourdain.

I enjoyed much watching the show today, July 30, 2010 at 1-2 pm, it finally came true. It brought good memories of my father, who was a foodie and traveled in the northern part of Luzon. Growing up, I remembed his cooking, most of what was shown in todays show.

And yes, definitely Filipino pride.

Maraming salamat po.

I forget if I already posted something about the lechon success, but in case I haven’t, well, congrats, MM! Hayaan mo na lang ang mga taong tulad ni Cherry. Not that I find you or your blog arrogant, but my personal credo is: If someone has the brains, the skill, talent and the passion to be arrogant about something, then that sort arrogance is not a bad thing. Masama lang naman if someone is all form and talk but without substance.

I’m an American who used to live in Cebu, and I just saw this episode on TV. I can’t tell you how happy I was to FINALLY see an American food show about the Philippines featuring all the delicious dishes I remember instead of bland shots of chicken adobo and deliberately gruesome close-ups of balut. There’s a section where you and Bourdain discuss the possible reasons why Americans have never gotten into Filipino food – I would say that it’s because many wonderful regional dishes, especially seafood dishes, simply aren’t available in most parts of America. The only times I’ve had anything like the kinilaw, seaweed salad or dried squid you served on the show have been when I’ve reproduced them in my own kitchen. If AA Barbecue opened up a branch in Queens, I’d be there RIGHT NOW, and I’ll bet I wouldn’t be the only one.

Great job and I look forward to reading more of your blog.

Mr. MM, may I ask why you do not like your face photographed and featured here. I am sure you look great and physically fit. Any reason why?
