numnums: Filipino Food Edition

We had a special lunchtime guest today at numnums and cooked up a special Filipino food feast for the crew. It was also my first time trying some of the classic Filipino dishes so it was exciting for me to help cook and eat the food.

On the menu: chicken adobo, cauliflower rice, lumpia, salad, torta talong (eggplant torta). My favorites were the chicken adobo and lumpia with a tasty sauce.

Another highlight of lunch was when our guest grilled peaches for dessert. Grilled peaches with a scoop of bourbon vanilla ice cream topped with marcona almonds and all sprinkled with cayenne and black pepper, oh wow.
