“Flaky but firm, the milkfish is cooked to perfection and is drenched in a thick tomato-based sauce that has a delightfully balanced acidic and salty flavor. Every bite is warm and delectable because to the inclusion of eggs, garlic, and onions, which improve the flavor overall. “

My verdict: DO TRY
