Mirasol: Adobong Dilaw (Yellow Adobo)

MIRASOL or the Sunflower is the inspiration of our newly launched dish. #MIRASOLbinalot is seen as a sign of hope, warmth, #sharing and lasting happiness — always inherently seeking for light, warmth and optimism in life.

And it is rightly more fitting that Adobo is the default dish that Pinoys love to eat regularly. Cavite holds a special place in our founder’s heart throughout his journey as an entrepreneur, he has been inspired with the thought and experience of Filipino Food and Filipino flavors. (5 things that make Filipino Food Unique)

“The town of Kawit, Cavite (the site of the declaration of Philippines independence against Spain in 1898) commemorates a special place in our country’s history as the birthplace of the Republic and of Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo (the first Philippine president). Adobo sa dilaw (or yellow adobo) was brought to Kawit from Taal, Batangas, when the general married his second wife, Maria Agoncillo of Taal, Batangas Province. Because Caviteños prefer “masarsa” or saucy adobo, the adobong dilaw is concocted with thick, rich golden sauce made from turmeric, extra broth, and breadcrumbs.”
