Bicol Express is a popular Filipino dish in which the slices of pork meat is cooked with coconut milk, shrimp paste, and chili pepper. There’s a belief that this dish was adapted from a Bicolano dish called “Gulay na may Lada”, meaning ‘vegetable with chili’. Their main difference is quite very obvious: Bicol Express uses pork while “Gulay na may Lada” uses only vegetable.
