Food at the cemetery

Of course, in any celebration, even in the cemetery is never complete without food.

Empanada, this delicious food is a mixture of meat, raisins, egg, diced vegetables and sometimes diced cheese, and stuffed into a flour mixture then fried. While there are different kinds, including that of the Ilocos, what is important is that its a pastry filled with vegetable/meat. Notice the boundaries along the empanada, traditionaly, it is sealed manually by pressing and folding the edges together but now, they use a kitchen utensil that is advertised on TV. But it is still delicious

Budbud, this sticky rice concoction is wrapped in banana leaves. Its a great snack dipped in sugar.

And of course, bam-i, this noodle dish is a mixture of pancit canton (egg noodles) and rice noodles sauteed with vegetable, chinese longganisa (sausage), meat and vegetables. Adding a dash of black/white pepper heigtens the flavor and is perfect as a filling of sliced bread.

All these downed with Sprite. Yummy!
