May 4, 2008 marks the feast of Saint Joseph in Las Piñas. To join the celebration, and as thanksgiving for all the blessing we received, I cooked these for lunch:
Lumpiang Shanghai (Fried pork spring rolls)

mechado (beef with pork fat inserted like a wick and cooked slowly until tender in tomato sauce)

Ginataang Hipon (Shrimp cooked in coconut milk)

and grilled pork liempo (i forgot to take a picture)
