Crispy Talaba - A New Discovery, A New Favorite

One quiet Sunday evening, while we were strolling the streets of Iloilo along the Delgado area, we were in search for something to eat, something new to discover. We were prompted to eat again due to the fact that I was not satisfied with Mooon Cafe's carbonara ( it tasted like Maggi seasoning). In terms of carbonara I still prefer that of MO2 Annex and Perri Todd's.


So, since Anthony and I had enough of fast food, we decided to try Buto't Balat. Since I was kinda full already, we ordered a plate of Crispy talaba and sizzling country chicken meal. I was craving for Mango shake so I ordered one. The mango shake turned out to be sour and made me winced of its sourness.

Crispy Talaba with Clarified Butter
The real discovery for that night was the Crispy talaba. I was expecting it to be bland but I was surprised when I tasted it together with the clarified butter as its dipping sauce. It tasted heavenly. very creamy and just enough to make us sing like the cherubim and angels in Heaven.
