My City, My SM, My Cuisine: A Celebration of Philippine Regional Cuisine by Tessie Sy-Coson and Millie Dizon

Heirloom dishes passed on from generation to generation, some well-guarded culinary secrets that reflect the culture, the natural environment of the land that supplies the produce that are used in cooking and literally, the good taste of the people. From the saccharine Tocino del Cielo of Pampanga, to the spicy Laing and the Bicol Express of the Bicol region, all the way to the Humba variations and pansit dishes of the Visayas and Mindanao, a lot of menus are covered in this book. The book presents home-cooked and homegrown dishes from the kitchens of well-known figures to the exotic clay pots of indigenous Manobos and Tbolis. Indeed, a buffet of flavors from cover to cover, a labor of love in every page. A colorful book that includes not only the photo of the dish but also the photos of chefs or cooks involved.
