THE FIESTA FAVORITE – MENUDO
The menudo. It is an ordinary dish to others but this can also be called a special dish. Maybe because it is usually included during town fiestas and birthdays here in the Philippines. Special occasions like in province, the MENUDO is always on the list. I don’t know why but if you’re going to ask your parents maybe they know the reason why. I tried to ask my mom but she just answered me “I don’t know maybe they just want to” ahaha! How about you guys can you ask your mom or your elders and share with me their answers? …
