Taking it slow at Pepe’s Palayok

The smells of slow cooking spread around the house and impart a unique warmth matched only by the flavor of the food.” – Yotam Ottolenghi

My Saturday afternoon was well-spent. At the invitation of owner MARIE WHARTON, I joined a group of Ilonggo bloggers – all gourmands – in an intimate food tasting event at Pepe’s Palayok.

Located in the confines of Casa Riviera in San Antonio, Oton, the restaurant offers a range of slow-cooked food.

Slow cooking is a culinary method used to cook food slow over period of time. In Philippine setting, the traditional food preparation is done in palayok, an earthen pot, in low fire, seasoned in traditional way, and served in old world family style.

We enjoyed on Spanish-Filipino  fusion dished, like Fried Lumpia, Beef Cucido, Salpicao, Adobo sa Buko, Adobo sa Atsuete, binakol, Spanish-style Bangrus, Sinugbang Talong with Giniling, Itlog Pula with Kamatis, and Kamote Cake.

Dining on sartin plates, the gastronomic experience reminded me of the summer vacations at my maternal grandparents’ plantation house in Barotac Nuevo, Iloilo.

Taking pride in its slow food concept and palayok specials, Pepe’s Palayok now accepts events for minimum of 10 to maximum of 50 persons with two days prior notice.
