Hope everyone had a wonderful fiesta celebration – okay not all of you are from Mambajao and we celebrated the festivities of Santo Nicolas.  It was great seeing my cousin Marites and her husband Hugo, they just finished their US Tour and was leaving today to return to Philippines. We had a great time and it was also good to see my cousin Marcelo and his wife Erlinda and meeting the kids (some) and the grandkids…beautiful and seeing more cousins – that I’ve not seen for a very long time, of which I have to say that I have no remembrance, but they all remember me! LOL.. yeah time flies and time with family is even more precious!  So here is more recipe for our own kind of cuisine for some bangus..if you’ve not had it.. you have to try it!!  Thanks Filipino Recipes – Philippines Foods & Recipes

Lumpiang bangus is another delicious variant of the famous lumpia recipe. I already covered the lumpiang shanghai and lumpiang sariwa recipe few months ago. As we already know, the typical lumpia consists mainly of pork and chopped vegetables. This one, it’s all about the fish.
