Chicken & Pork Adobo “Romulo Style”
henever I long for a taste of home, my preferred go to dish is Chicken & Pork Belly Adobo. Having lived outside the Philippines for more than 30 years, this dish always brings back nostalgic and happy memories of sitting around my grandparents’ dinner table, meaning marinade—it is quite versatile and can be used with meat, seafood, or vegetables. Some add coconut milk, tomatoes, turmeric or chillies. At Romulo Café & Restaurant, we add truffles to the sauce. This recipe is the classic adobo with pork belly and chicken which is still my favourite.
