From Hannah Goldfield's piece, Rice Is Both Culture and Comfort at FieldTrip, in The New Yorker. Most people in the house think it's not a proper meal if there's no rice on the table; it's merienda.
I remember "Uncle Roger" watching an egg fried rice video and his reacting to a statement that it might make a good side dish. If it's rice, it's the entree! But not if it's lugaw or kakanin, hehe.
Kuya Bobby will be proud!
ReplyDeleteYes! Favorite ni Bobby ang rice: introduction lang dapat ang irerehearse, tapos buong presentation na ang ginawa niya.
