Little do people know that they is a little town in Laguna called Cavinti which has a lot of places to visit. Thus, Mayor Oliveros invited us to stay at his private place "Villa Oliveros Resort" so we can enjoy Cavinti.
Mayor Oliveros personally dropped by as a sign of hospitality.
We were treated like guests at his household.
My friend
Clarissa Tubeo of footontheloose.blogspot.com with
Mayor Oliveros.
We got to try
Cavinti's native dishes like the
Pinais which has grounded shrimp with young coconut.
The
Tinuto is folded gabi leaves with ginger and fish (sapsap/tuyo/dilis) in coconut milk.
I would have enjoyed it if only the fish did not have a lot of small bones.
They also served as a
Kalderetang Kambing which was delicious.
