…or chicken fried? Either way, it was damn good.
Anyway, I neglected to include yesterday’s breakfast in my “24 hours” post. It’s rare to even see this offered on a menu, at least in my experience. And damn, look at the size of those portions. As good as it was I could barely eat half of it.
People rag on the food in the Philippines, especially in comparison to what’s available in Thailand. Well, that may be true for local dishes but I’m having no problem getting my belly full on Western comfort foods that I enjoy.
Speaking of which, I finally got back under 200 pounds. Those ten pounds I gained during my visit in the USA took more than a month to shed. I’m still not as disciplined diet-wise as I ought to be, but I do monitor my weight/blood pressure/resting heart rate everyday. I want to stay healthy so I can continue to live large (without getting large).
Life’s good.

You’re an example to follow. Congrats on getting back under 200! I bloated up after losing 6 kg in France, and I’m trying to get back down from that bloat.
The breffus looks good. Carbaliciously good. I’d call it “chicken-fried” steak as well, for what it’s worth, but I’ve heard “country-fried” before, too. I’ll have to do some research and see whether there’s a difference.
Ask, and ye shall receive.
Interesting, thanks for the link! So, they gave me a choice between brown and white gravy, and they were served on the side. And the meat was indeed very crispy. I’d say all evidence points to this being “chicken-fried” notwithstanding what the menu called it. I was just surprised to see it on the menu period!
