In general, I would agree that the PI likes their food "sweet" and greasy. I think the greasy has to do with not rotating the frying oil enough. The sweet is simply a palate issue.

One of the best dishes I ever had was a stew served in a deep fried french fry bowl. Yum!

(I want to go back to the Hobbitt House!)
If you make it out to the Bay Area, Chibog (referenced upthread as Sinugba - on Gellert Rd in Daly City) has really good lechon kawali and they serve it silog style with a mound of garlic fried rice and 2 fried eggs.

Any tuyo fans? I usually leave the room when the wife and kids dig into that. I know it doesn't taste bad, but the smell. Ugh, in comparison, durian smells like a bouquet of flowers
