High School Friends Visit

[22-24, June, 2024]

A couple of high school friends now living in the East Coast (Philly and NYC), Terry and Lito visited for a weekend of reconnecting and of course, eating up. It was a great time to catch up amid several lavish and fun meals as is customary with Filipino get-togethers. Short visit, but long on memories to always cherish.

Last night’s dinner was an old favorite: crispy, pan-fried chicken and pork gyoza, with a ponzu dip chock-full of garlic chili crisp. And of course, miso soup.
