Lard!

One thing I sincerely adore about my job is that, I get to wine and dine with the media. During said lunches and dinners, I get to get to know them more and personally, that is where I believe I develop more strategic alliances.

So yesterday, I had lunch at Felix with one of my favorite editors eveeerrr plus a couple of clients. Felix being one of the upscale restaurants in this part of Manila. I ordered baby back ribs because I was up all night and had only 2 hours of sleep. I was also feeling really weak. Thought some meat might perk me up plus can you really say no to the hickory roast smell?

One bite and I was in heaven. It was juicy and tender and muy delicioso. But it was fat. Oozing with very thick, totally unhealthy lard. But I devoured it anyway. In fact, I almost finished it. What lard?
