shameless plugging (my first and definitely not the last)
Balik-Bayan Goes to Leyte!
Get ready for an adventure filled with spunk, humor and sassiness all rolled into one vivacious episode as Balik-Bayan heads to Leyte! Who’s our tour guide that’s got the goods? Well, it is none other than the sexy comedienne, Maureen Larrazabal.
Maureen starts her journey home with a larger than life encounter at Palo, Leyte. She discovers the General MacArthur Landing Memorial and just couldn’t resist giving it a taste of her bubbly personality.
Nearby sits a silent bystander to World War II. The Palo Metropolitan Cathedral’s magnificent architecture was witness to the horrors war can bring to human life as it served more than a sanctuary to soldiers and civilians.
Watch in amazement as nature yields power, literally. The Leyte Geothermal Steam Fields stands proud in the city of Ormoc. Home to the world’s biggest geothermal power station, along with four other stations in the area, it supplies power to Cebu, Negros, Panay and Luzon. Now that’s nature at its best!
Hungry for more? Fill your stomach with all the tasty goodies Leyte has to offer. Here they combine the best cooking methods in one unique dish - Sinuglaw. It’s sinugba and kinilaw in one flavorful package.
For the health conscious, here’s a treat for you. Ancestor to a mealtime favorite, wild boar brings a leaner quality to dishes that pork fails to offer. One of Ormoc’s secrets -succulent wild boar that can make your mouth water without the fat!
But, our lovely tour guide is not just about fun and games on this adventure. She’s in for her most nerve-wracking challenge! She’s coming home to meet her family in Leyte for the first time. What took Maureen so long to come home?
Find out why and join Maureen Larrazabal as she’s got everything you need for a road trip. Good food, gorgeous sights, good company and a journey to one’s roots.
This Friday on Balik-Bayan, 10PM on Q!
