Longganisa: The Long And Short Of It!

BAGUIO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Baguio Bureau) – We’re reporting from the summer capital of the Philippines — Baguio City — where one of the delicacies tourists look for is the Baguio longganisa (sausage). It comes in different sizes and flavors: long, short, sweet, garlicky, you name it.

Many towns, cities and provinces in the Philippines lay claim that their longganisa is the best.

Of course it’s a palate matter, preference or even bias.

So, to settle the issue once and for all, The Adobo Chronicles is conducting a poll on which longganisa our readers and followers consider the best in the country.

We’ve created a list of top longganisas so you can vote on which one you think is the best (use our comments section to vote). But we’re not limiting the choices to our list. You can add your longganisa so our readers and followers can vote on it.

LTO Mans Up To LGBTQ Priority Lane Blunder!

MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Was it parody? Was it a typo? Was it a photoshop job?

These were the lingering questions that followed a viral photo showing that in a Land Transportation Office (LTO) district office, LGBTQ was included in a service priority lane, along with senior citizens, persons with disability and pregnant women.

Well, finally, the LTO district office concerned manned up to the issue — and defended it.

Their response was presumably an attempt at damage control, but it was more laughable and ludicrous than parody, typo or photoshop.
