Goat Roti Chronicles - Pulo Philippine Cuisine - Sauces

The first thought that raced through my mind as I opened to box of Pulo Philippine Cuisine cooking sauces was, “What the heck did I get myself into?” If you’ve ever been to my site before, you know that I don’t do cooking articles. I do interviews, and I write about the food related events. …
