FOR SOMEONE like me who lives right smack in the middle of Quezon City, the Alabang area is practically unknown territory.

INQUIRER.NET reporter Lawrence Casiraya interviewed El Nido Resorts chef Rey de la Cruz and sampled the exotic delicacy known as tamilok.

While it looks like a worm, the tamilok is actually a mollusk that burrows inside the trees in Palawan’s mangrove areas. It’s supposed to be an aphrodisiac, hehe :)

Video taken by INQUIRER.net reporter Alex Villafania at Miniloc island on Nov. 17.

For more videos from our Palawan adventure, check out my earlier post. And go to iVDO on Yahoo! for more videos from INQUIRER.net and our partners.
