Laoagueños were nervous watching the premier episode of FoodPrints with Chef Sandy Daza on the Lifestyle Network. And that included me, super! I wasn’t able to focus on the things I said about the better longaniza in Ilocos because I was awaiting Chef Sandy’s verdict. It would have been the end of my career as a blogger if I were wrong. But then again, taste is subjective, so here are photos of the Laoag longaniza made with the perfect mix of garlic, sukang Iloco, paminta and other secret ingredients. In different tones and forms. I have a suki. Check out Rara’s.
It’s really nice and convenient for everyone ‘coz the specialty stalls occupy an outside space at the eastern portion of the Laoag Supermarket (Rizal St.) near the Ilocos products like cornik, yema, balicucha, bocayo, salamagi, etc.

Glad to see that those meats are inside those glass enclosures. I shriver at the sight of longganisa in the open markets hanging like curtains and swarmed by flies. So unless they are ordered from our suki in Vigan and they are normally just made, we don’t buy any in Baguio.
LOL. fish tubs in Laoag have mosquitero also:)
