Laing
Chop garlic and ginger.
What would Bicol be without laing? Probably still a region with many other good things to eat. But not the same, as everyone who goes there is just so damn eager to finally eat some of it while actually in Bicol.
Our friends told us this wasn't even "special" laing, because it was made for a large group. They were unable to pinpoint what "special" exactly was, except something that tasted better than this, which tasted pretty good in itself:
Still chopping. More ginger than garlic.
Squeeze grated coconut to extract the milk.
You get the gabi leaves in with some little shrimp and the thinner milk, then after a bit put the creamier stuff.
Mix mix.
Zoom in.
Eat.
