Fortunately, my Filipina wife is a chef. They have some great seafood here, and, unlike most, she knows how to prepare it. Also have great pork, with the same caveat as above. Fantastic fruit, much like LOS; I can go out to my garden and pick bananas, mangoes, papaya, lime, etc. The raw materials here aren't too bad, they just can't cook. And I do eat pineapple with salt.
