Small talk, Big eat!

 
Do you think Smalltalk Cafe was named after the Smalltalk programming language? :)
Or maybe because the food are all so good, you'll have less chitchat time? :D
 
To say that my tummy was overjoyed in Bicol is an understatement. 

Smalltalk Cafe is our first stop and became our favorite. Food worth every penny thus this restaurant became our pocket's bff.
During our stay in Legazpi, we always go to Smalltalk for lunch. :)

BICOL EXPRESS  
is a spicy coconut milk based Filipino pork dish.
One of the region's popular dish. Named after the train that leaves from Manila to Bicol region.

Original version tastes different from the ones I had before
This one is more rich, flavorful, & oh! so yummy.

With Bicol express, they created another dish with it.
Tada!

The spiciness of Bicol Express on the pasta gives it an interestingly yummy twist.
Oh my! What to do? I'm craving for one & I'm oceans away from Bicol. tsktsk.

Did you know that the way Laing is being wrapped has meaning?
