Experience the Philippines through its Cuisine

Every now on then popular artists, singers, and basketball players from other countries visit the Philippines, and
whenever they are asked about their experience in the country, they always say something in common. (Know what
that is?) They all say I had this wonderful chicken dish. Whats it called again? Adobo? Insert foreign accent-
Why so? There is no one answer to that for sure. But whats sure is that the Filipinos are good cooks, and that their
dishes can satisfy almost any kind of taste bud. But what is so special about Adobo? Aside from its popularity, is
there any particular reason why people love it? (HA! Great question!) But Im afraid theres also no one answer for
