What do Overseas Filipino Workers miss most about Philippines? Pinoy food, of course. While Filipino palate is quite adaptable to the different cuisines of the world, it continues to be partial authentic Filipino flavors. Here, Chef Boy regales his guests led by singing sensation Mark Bautista with how well he whips up distinctly Pinoy dishes. Pinoy Kare-Kare Espesyal with beef sirloin, trip and oxtail made sumptuously special by peanut butter, ground peanut and toasted rice. Of course, Chef Boy also made a special blend of shrimp paste (bagoong) to make this to-die-for dish even more extraordinary.
