For this week, my entry is "Linotlot" na Manok sa Gata...

Linotlot is how our brothers and sister in the Tibolo Village cook their food. It is a Bagobo tribe's trademark on cooking any food they wish to serve... How it is done is cooking food inside a bamboo tube and placing it on open fire.. 

Bamboo is cracked open and food is then placed in banana leaves for serving... Below is a photo borrowed from Mr. Art Boncato's album to show you how it is done...

I swear food is so yummy!

The DFAT 2011 Experience

I am now home from my Davao Food Appreciation Tour 2011 experience. We have been to many different food places, and seen so many beautiful sights in Davao, including the majestic Mount Apo, the tallest mountain in the Philippines. We ate with the Bagobo tribe at the Tibolo Village, we saw the amazing bird show and met Pag-asa at the Philippine Eagle Foundation site.. We went to large restaurants with glass top dining tables as well as those small restaurants that are huge on taste and explosive flavors in their cooking.. We have seen vinyl tablecloth and the different table settings.. We have come to understand what a dish chair is, and well, enjoyed all of them with gusto..

Truly, it was an experience that is rich in lessons, experience and fun. I guess it has covered more aspect of a  Davao food adventure. What amazed me most of all is how the Bagobos cooked inside the bamboo tubes, from main dish to dessert--- Nilotlot is the term for it. 

The chicken in coconut milk cooked in bamboo tube was delicious...
