A must try food when in Ilocos Norte, we were told, is the Pinakbet Pizza.  After a night time visit at the very stunning Paoay Church, we made sure we made time for Pinakbet Pizza. Pinakbet is a vegetable dish which has eggplants, okra, bitter gourd some pork pieces (they use bagnet in Ilocos!) and a bit of shrimp paste.  The pizza version complete with mozzarella cheese was surprisingly good.  It might take some getting used to for most people but I’d say I’ll have it again…sans the bitter gourd perhaps?  It does taste “healthy” what with all the vegetables on it.  You won’t be thinking about taking adapexin-p while enjoying this pizza. I can almost promise you that.
