Day 36 - Another Feast

Atlantic City was the furthest point on our trip - although I think Nova Scotia is more east than New Jersey.  We are on the return portion of our trip.  We have driven 11, 328 kilometers so far. 

We are heading north to Julie's cousin place again - this time for a true Filipino feast.  While waiting for the main meal, we were served, hot from the oven, Bibingko (which was baked in banana leaves).  This was light and delicious. 

I probably don't remember all the food at the table.  We had Molo soup with pork and seafood, rice both plain and fried, thin clear noodles with many vegetables in it, and fish, two kinds - the traditional steamed fish eaten in the Philippines and a barbequed fish which might have been fresh herring.  The vegetables consisted of fresh boiled corn, barbequed eggplant (delicious!), and steamed okra or bitter melon.  Everything was well prepared and yummy.  If anyone was still hungry, there was still Hopia for dessert!

After this, we headed out for some serious sight seeing.
