Answer 2

Here is the link to my favorite Filipino cooking blog:

http://www.pinoycook.net/cooking-food/ca...

My husband was born in US to Filipino parents.  All of the recipes I have used from Connie Veneracion's cooking blog have been great - they've gotten rave reviews from the family (my MIL now asks me to bring the mongo instead of making it herself). She is a native Filipina living in Manila.  Not only are her traditional recipes good, she's a creative cook and an entertaining and informative writer - you will learn a lot from this site.
