Balaw-Balaw Restaurant is located in Angono, Rizal, Philippines. This is the only place that fits my personality. I love to try exotic foods, frog, kamaru and others. Today, I was able to taste the Balaw-Balaw has to offer.
Today is my first time to be here, but, the whole experience including the Higantes Festival 2012 was really amazing. Other people who already tasted exotic foods always say that frog tastes like a chicken meat. Well, that's also what I think, I always believe to what others are saying, that's if we are talking about foods ONLY. And that's the main reason why I really want to prove if it's correct.
When I was young, I have cousins from Bulacan, Philipines visited us in Romblon. Since our house is just few steps away from the rice fields, so the frogs are living in that wet area. When my cousins saw those frogs jumping to our garden, at the backyard, they said: " why not grilling that frogs, it tastes good like chicken. " The first time I heard that, I was shocked, but now in the photos below, I've enjoyed a lot eating frogs.
Look at this Higante or Giants, the one with yellow green scarf, I think he is hiding himself on us. I don't know the reason why he did that. Hello, how can he hide himself to that red van, he stands more than 10 feet.
When we entered this restaurant, we were shocked, because we thought it is just an ordinary resto. But, inside the Balaw-Balaw, it's like a fine dining resto with gallery.
