Mang Paeng's Kare-kareng Tagalog

Kare-kare is among the most loved dishes by Filipinos. Pinoy restaurants usually have different versions of Kare-kare. Since this is one of my favorite Filipino dishes, I knew we had to try it Mang Paeng-style. What can say? Their version is delicious.

It has a bitter-sweet taste and a certain delicious after-taste of peanut butter. Their bagoong that goes with the Kare-kare has a special taste meant for their distinct mix. My Tito said, "My sipa ng kare-kare ang version nila". This is truly one of the must-try dishes of Mang Paeng. For only Php130.00, you can enjoy this sumptuous Pinoy dish. The following are among the ingredients of this dish.

Rating
"*Lazy* Yeah..."
We know that based on our experience we really enjoyed the dish. Unfortunately, we found a little problem, which is more like a personal preference. The taste is really good, but really fatty because of the beef fat, which can trigger heart attack for diners with high blood pressure. They could improve it with less fat on the skin and more meat. That way, many can eat their delicious kare-kare.

Personal Tips

• You can enjoy the dish even without the bagoong. It's still really yummy.
• You'll have a better dining experience if the dish is served hot.
• This dish is good for 4 people.
• If you have a high blood condition, don't eat this. It's bad for you. Better safe than sorry. OR just eat the vegetables.
