Happy New Year! I’m sure your tummy had its fill of yummy feasts during the past holiday season. Honestly, I and the boys gained pounds when my sister-in-law and her family came from the province and stayed with us for a week. Ate Cel is a certified cook and she has a catering business in Naga City. That’s why, when she’s with us, it’s almost always fiesta food at home!

Our Noche Buena feast all cooked by Ate Cel.

There is no doubt that the most important food of the Noche Buena is the ham. While there are a number of meat brands everyone is familiar with, there is only one that offers the best-tasting ham which not only makes the holiday special but also a cut above the rest.

I am a sucker for Dinuguan (pork blood stew).  Wait, I think I sounded like a vampire with that statement, haha!  What I mean is, I really love Dinuguan whether it’s eaten with rice or puto (rice cake).  This is why I got curious after receiving news of Gaudi’s blood sausages.

Gaudi Restaurant serves Morcilla, or blood sausages, both as a tapa and as an ingredient in stews. Morcilla is generally a thicker sausage, about 2 ½ to 3 inches across, stuffed with pig’s blood, rice, onions and spices. For only Php 200, you can get to enjoy the enticing flavor and texture of Morcilla with your family and friends this halloween at Gaudi Restaurant. I wonder if my boys will be as brave and curious as I am to try this, hmmmm….
