Pinoy comfort food is great all year round, but you have to admit it’s at its best during the cold, rainy months.
When the rain clouds come, make sure to get your fix of Pinoy dishes, with a delicious steaming bowl of hot beef bulalo as the main course, of course. There’s something irresistible when the familiar aroma of a hot bowl of beef bulalo hits your nose on a cold day. TRES Cuisine does it well because they make bulalo the classic, well-loved way. They make the beef tender, the corn soft, and the veggies firm. A single order can serve the entire family so you know where you’re eating on rainy days!
