BEST FOODS AND IN PAMPANGA
SISIG
On top of the list of dishes that is well known to be an original Kapampangan dish is –
sisig!. The dish consists of different pig parts (mostly coming from the head) mixed with
chicken or pork liver. With these ingredients, the Kapampangan’s were able to create an
iconic dish that is very well known around the country. World-renowned television chef
Andrew Zimmern includes sisig as one of the dishes that can change the world. You can
never claim that you went to Pampanga if you have not tasted the authentic
Kapampangan sisig. There are a couple of restaurants offering this dish, but there are
two establishments in Angeles City that are well-known because of their own take of the
sisig: “Aling Lucing’s” and “Mila’s Tokwa’t Baboy”. “Aling Lucing’s” is known as an original
for the “modern day sisig”. It is because of Lucia “Aling Lucing” Cunanan that Angeles
City was named as the “Sisig Capital of the Philippines”. Even after her passing, the
original branch of “Aling Lucing’s” still stands along the old rail road tracks of Angeles
City called “Crossing”. Although known for their Tokwa’t Baboy (thus the name) Mila’s
Tokwa’t Baboy, they are also famous for their different take on the sisig. Instead of
grilling the pig’s head, Mila’s deep-fries it before serving it on a sizzling plate, making
their sisig crunchier that the traditional sisig. This recipe of sisig was innovated in the 80’s
and is still loved until now.
BURO
Buro or balo-balo is basically fermented rice (mixed with shrimp or fish) which is a
popular condiment in Pampanga. Some find eating buro extreme, maybe because of its
pungent smell and appearance, but it makes eating much better. Once you overcome
the thought of eating fermented rice, you might find eating buro delectable especially
with deep fried hito (cat fish), mustasa (mustard greens), and boiled vegetables (okra,
eggplant, etc.) on the side.
Tocino (Pindang)
The tocino is probably one of the famed products of Pampanga that has been a staple of
Filipino breakfast item for many years. If it’s your first time to hear about this dish, tocino
is a processed pork meat that is sweet and salty when cooked, perfect for rice and sunny
side up egg on the side. While this product is available nationwide, you should not miss-
out on the chance to taste the authentic Kapampangan tocino that is offered only in the
province which is “Pindang Damulag” – a thinly sliced carabao meat cured with vinegar
and seasonings. The taste of pindang is sour compared to the sweet tocino that we are
all familiar with, but pair it with a cup of rice with sliced tomatoes on the side, and you’ll
surely experience one taste that is uniquely Kapampangan.
TIBUK-TIBUK
Besides their main dishes, Kapampangans also take their desserts seriously. One
dessert that you should try when visiting Pampanga is tibuk-tibuk. This is Pampanga’s
version of Maja Blanca that is traditionally made with carabao’s milk, with a hint of
dayap zest (local lemon) with latik on top. Tibuk-tibuk or tibok is literally translated as
“heart beat” that describes the bubbles pulsating up and down (that looks like a beating
heart) when the pudding is cooked. We suggest you try Susie’s Cuisine’s version of the
tibuk-tibuk, for that creamy, melt in your mouth goodness that tastes like heaven.
TOURIST SPOT IN PAMPANGA
The Nayong Pilipino Clark's attraction centers around Philippine history and
culture and covers an area of 3.5 hectares (8.6 acres).[4] The Money
Museum features present and historical Philippine currency; while the
Textile Museum exhibits local textiles. It also hosts replicas of select
national landmarks such as Rizal Shrine in Calamba, Laguna, Mabini
Shrine in Tanauan, Batangas, and the Barasoain Church.
DINOSAURS ISLAND
Aside from the Dino Trail, there are other things you can also do in
Dinosaurs Island. For instance, there’s the Jurassic Jungle Safari wherein
you can experience being chased by dinosaurs. There’s also the 7D and
Fossil Museum. For the little ones, they have the Dino Ride. For those who
love taking pictures, they have the Wonders of the World.
We only tried the Dino Trail, Jurassic Jungle Safari, 7D, and Dino Ride
though since we had limited time. If you’re there earlier, you’ll have enough
time to check out all the attractions.
CLARK MUSEUM
In January 2013, President Barack Obama signed into law the Dignified
Burial and Other Veterans’

directing ABMC to operate and
maintain Clark Veterans
Cemetery following an
agreement between the Republic of the Philippines and the United
States. That agreement was signed in December of 2013 making Clark
