Novel & Cerita Kapre Filipino

He made a memo to himself to remind Kate of her bedtime more strictly. After church, Kate and her parents went grocery-shopping. They normally ate out on Sundays but, from what Ecto could gather from their conversation, the last time they were in a restaurant, Mrs. Lapuz got sick of the overpriced and tasteless dribbles they were served. She decided to cook "kare-kare", a popular Philippine dish, herself and planned to substitute napa cabbage or eggplant for the banana bud (locally known as banana heart), which should be available in the fish market but not in the supermarket.
