Dumarao, Capiz |
Pengees Restaurant boast of having the best Kalderetang Kambing (Goat Meat Stew) in the whole of Panay Island. Although I am not a fan of Kambing dishes, not tasting this famous Capiz dish is a big no-no for me. What's my verdict?
Well, if I haven't known it's a goat, I would have mistaken it for a beef because it really tastes like beef. There is none of that rancid flavor that I associate with goat dishes that is why I dislike them. And the dish is tasty and spicy enough perfect for either a cup of steamed rice or as pulutan (appetizer) in drinking parties.
As for the place, Pengees exudes a mixed vibe of surfer's place and tropical tribe with those colorful statues made of stone. I just find it odd because the place is located on a highway and I do not see any beach or sea nearby. Maybe, its an added attraction because most diners there took a souvenir shot beside these statues.
Nevertheless, if it is Kalderatang Kambing you want, Pengees may have rightfully claim to have the best one in Panay.
It does look tasty to me, Oman! Glad you enjoyed it! Hope your week is going well!

I've been a fan of goat meat since I was a kid!
ReplyDeleteBefore, I like to eat goat meat stew (kalderetang Kambing), but now, its a no no. kawawa kasi.:-). Ganda na ng site mo oman.
ReplyDeleteI thought goat meat is tangy so you need lots and lots of chilli peppers just to saturate the taste. Never fond of eating goats too.
ReplyDeleteSarap na pulutan yan. Inuman na.
ReplyDeleteHaven't tasted goat meat yeat. From what I've heard, the flavor is pretty intense. :-)
ReplyDeleteOy, napunta ka palang Pengee ha. I ate their once on our way to Iloilo. My brother-in-law is from Dumarao and he also brought us their for lunch.

ReplyDeleteGoat meat is always the best!
ReplyDeleteI like goat meat and I like kalderetang kambing. I know for some the gamey smell of goat is a turn off.
ReplyDeletedouble whammy - "there" not "their", sorry.
ReplyDeleteOman, you have one of the most beautiful blogs I have ever seen! And your name for the blog is so clever! Loved seeing the sunsets...your photography is stunning! This place sounds interesting, but it would definitely be more exotic on the beach!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for coming by and visiting my blog!!!
Most of the traditional locals in the UAE prefer the goat meat over beef.
