the name galunggong refers to a whole family of fish, who all look similar but are not exactly the same.

My Dad and I were talking about Galunggong and he was wondering what is the more common term in English. His guess was mackarel, so he asked me to google it. The first result was your blog entry. I knew I should’ve gone straight to your blog. Thanks! :D

This fish is very good. I always look for this in the market here in California. The thing is, this is seasonal so we just have to wait when it’s is available. This is good to eat freshly fried with patis or bagoong isda. Man, it’s heaven for me especially whe you eat them with your hands. One time my friend had a little lunch party at her house, she asked me what I
want for lunch. She already ordered several kinds of fish and I asked her if the market have galunggong and they did. At the party all the guests like the GG. The tilapia and the catfish were left untouched. The good thing is we had “to go”(balot).
