Before I discuss the food, I want to say that Pista ng Bayan is one of the better-organized Filipino events we attended in Metro Vancouver this year. I love how the stage is in the middle while the vendors and booths are wrapped around it. You can explore the market while still being entertained by talented Filipinos.
Now, let's discuss the food. After devouring the bento box from Plato Filipino, we got Combo 2 from Pampanga's Cuisine, which comes with our choice of two meat and rice.
I chose beef kare-kare and chicken barbecue.

The kare-kare didn't look like the usual colour, but it tasted like peanuts, which is good. I need my veggies and bagoong. But overall, it satisfied my kare-kare craving.
The chicken barbecue was perfectly caramelized outside and still tender inside. It's perfect.
I'm so happy to be able to support both Filipino restaurants that are part of Pista ng Bayan.
