Our
very own Solomillo a la Pobre
Today, practically every restaurant has "Steak a la
Pobre" on its menu, a delicious concoction of tenderloin
fillet and toasted garlic chips. Many people think that
it has always been around and is universally known version
of steak. The fact is that Steak a la Pobre is unknown
outside of the Philippines; it is actually one of the
many dishes invented by Seņor Alba! "A la Pobre" derives
its name, according to Seņor Alba, from the way the
side garnish of potatoes are cooked: "Fried in just
a little olive oil,
with just a little bit of garlic -- muy pobre."
