Grilled shrimp and asparagus........

Everybody likes shrimp...and when it's grilled just right with some fresh asparagus....


and served over lemon risotto, it makes for a pretty good dinner...


Honey orange panna cotta with fresh berries for dessert. Another home run!!

Adobo

Very simple staple food of the Philippines. Pork, soy sauce, vinegar, onions and tomatoes. Served over plain white rice. I think I could live on it.....





Adobo can be made with chicken or beef, but in my humble opinion, pork country style ribs are far and away the best.
