00:00 And if I have a bitter surprise for my guest,

00:04 Food Explorer, Kate Kinstade of My Guardian Alien,

00:08 has a sweet idea for those who want to take their loved ones on a food trip

00:13 this Mother's Day.

00:15 Food Explorers, who is your mama's boy or mama's girl?

00:20 Here, if you're looking for the perfect place to go dine with your mom,

00:23 I definitely recommend Lihuanang Cafe.

00:29 So in front of me, I have the dishes that are from this special section,

00:32 "Luto ni Inay,"

00:34 and these are dishes that are actually recipes from Nanay Wilma,

00:38 who is the mother of the owner of this restaurant.

00:40 So I'm really, really excited kasi some of these dishes are actually my personal favorites.

00:45 So let's dig in!

00:46 This restaurant is really dedicated for my mother

00:49 because it was a gift.

00:50 It's a gift for her na, you know, it's a hard work of a mother.

00:55 The reason why kaya nandito ako yun is because of my mother.

00:58 And then I just remember nung bata pa ako yung mga luto niya,

01:01 palagi kong inaaral, lagi niya tinuturo sa'kin,

01:04 and hanggang ngayon bit-bit ko, kaya dinala ko dito ngayon sa restaurant.

01:07 Hindi ko makakalimutan talaga na unang tinuro sa'kin ng nanay ko

01:12 is yung pork adobo namin, kasi number one, ayun yung unang pinakamadaling lutuin,

01:17 and number two, paborito ko siya.

01:20 So this is the adobo.

01:22 It's actually twice cooked, and as you can see,

01:25 ito yung, what's it called, yung adobo na may like oil.

01:29 Wow.

01:37 That's really good.

01:39 It's really like full of flavor.

01:41 I don't think I've had an adobo that's like as packed with flavor as this one.

01:47 Syempre, sobra siya naging happy,

01:51 kasi nilabas namin yung isang section ng menu na liwanag kaffir,

01:56 which is dedicated para sa kanya.

01:58 Most of them is talagang original recipe niya,

02:01 and most of our customers talaga na-enjoy it.

02:04 So I've already prepared the bulalok for me.

02:08 This is my favorite, so I'm so excited.

02:20 That's really, really good.

02:21 The flavor naman is not too strong, which I like,

02:26 and the meat is cooked perfectly.

02:29 So eto naman yung sizzling mushroom nila,

02:31 and fun fact, GMA Cavite is actually the mushroom capital of the Philippines,

02:36 and here in Cavite, they also have the Caboteno Festival.

02:40 Okay, guys, sa totoo, hindi ako mahilig sa mushroom,

02:43 but I'll give it a try.

02:44 Okay.

02:45 Mmm.

02:50 Wow.

02:51 I like the sauce.

02:53 As you can see, with this one, usually kasi the tofu is fried,

02:58 but with this one, it's steamed.

03:00 It's really perfectly cooked.

03:06 It's not cooked too much, so it's really good.

03:10 So it's been a while, actually, since I've had kare-kare,

03:18 so I'm super excited to try it today.

03:20 So it's really different from what I'm used to.

03:27 Wow. Okay, I really miss kare-kare pala.

03:29 Dito ma-fulfill nyo yung appreciation para sa nanay natin

03:36 because padalas napapansin lang natin yung ceremony nanay.

03:40 Hindi natin nakita yung mga pag-aalala, pag-mamahal,

03:43 yung hard work at pag-aalaga niya, no?

03:46 So dito, we really want to feel ng mga nanay na special sila.

03:51 May mga may kita pa kayo sa mga tables namin na words for mother,

03:55 so that they will just really feel really appreciated.

03:58 If you dine here with your moms, you can get a free tote bag and a free drink.

04:03 I really love how this restaurant, Buwanan Cafe,

04:06 values the importance of mothers because my mom in my life,

04:09 she's very hardworking and she also cooks delicious food.

04:13 Tsaka nakaka-relate talaga kasi yun din yung kwento sa show ko,

04:16 which is My Guardian Alien Weeknights on GMA at 8.50pm pakatapos ng Black Rider.
