I like Paksiw especially Bangus. I was planning to have Paksiw na Tulingan sa Gata for dinner. However, while I was at the supermarket, the Tulingan doesn't looked good. I was caught between Porkchops and Tilapia. I know Tilapia in Gata is good but I haven't tried the Paksiw na Tilapia in coconut milk. It's for me to find out, so I gave it a try.
