The other day, I had cravings for Dungeness crabs. Today my Cravings is for Seafood Paella. This dish was served in Newtons during one of Our Sunday Brunch, when the former Sous Chef Alberto Alvarez was still working here. It replaced the weekly Baked Salmon Dish. Hopefully with a new Sous Chef coming on January 20, we will have Seafood Paella in our Brunch Menu. For recipe for Sea Food Paella.
A notable example of a Filipino dish with Spanish influence is the paella (locally known as "bringhe"), a rice dish made with glutinous rice, coconut milk, and a variety of meats and seafood.
Another example is lechon, a whole roasted pig that's a staple of festive gatherings. The Spanish also introduced churros, which became a popular sweet treat in the Philippines.
Here's the site of my blog on my Favorite American and Filipino Dishes:
Meanwhile, Did You Know That:
The closest country to the U.S. isn’t Canada—it’s Russia! At their closest point, the U.S. (Alaska) and Russia are only about 2.4 miles (3.8 km) apart across the Bering Strait.
The Diomede Islands in the Bering Strait mark the nearest point between the two countries. Little Diomede is part of Alaska, while Big Diomede belongs to Russia. During winter, the sea ice sometimes forms a natural bridge between the two islands, making it theoretically possible to walk between the U.S. and Russia.
Lastly, Last night with the Larimore's at East Ocean Sea Food Restaurant at Ignacio Plaza. What a surprise to see them. Did you have a Good Dinner?
