REPUBLIC OF TASTE: THE UNTOLD STORIES OF CAVITE CUISINE BY IGE RAMOS

An amazing ode by Ige Ramos to his native Cavite. History, anecdotes, photos of its markets and mangroves, and fantastic heirloom recipes—the book is a revelation, especially for Tagalogs. A great gift for us coastal lowlanders, or for older people who want a glimpse of a rich, delicious world they still remember. Comes in custom wrapping and has a free map of Cavite.
