Some time in a visit in Gonzaga town, Cagayan, we were feted with a nabaknang a pangngaldaw, a hearty lunch,by our kind and generous hosts, right at the STR, a river resort maintained and operated by the municipal government. Well, STR is sirok ti rangtay or under the bridge. But no bridge to burn here. That's under the iconic steel-type bridge over the famous Wangag River.
That's steamed shrimps there, kilawen a sosay, and bilonak salad with KBL:
Freshly caught shrimps steamed briefly and it's so sweet and delicious, and gorgeous:
Spiced raw fish flesh, with optional dip of Kikkoman sashimi soy sauce laced with wasabi:
We were also treated with a terrific pinapaitan a baka:
Liningta a malaga was later served, as evidenced by my labay, my plate:
And of course, we washed down it all with a fine brandy (as hinted by the third photo above).
