    @LokiJr - yes, ok naman maglabas nang wood from Oz, pati fruits, meat products.

    Ang medyo lito ako is kung pwedeng magpasok nang meat sa Pinas. Lagi akong nagdadala nang steak and dapat yata i-declare, which I don't. Notice ko lang, yung ibang Pinoy na may dalang meat products nalilito din. Can't remember baka yung declaration form medyo nakaka intimidate.

    Mas ok pa nga pag from Oz to Sg ako, walang kaba sa customs kasi pwede magpasok nang kahit anong pagkain.
    Pwede naman po ata magdala ng meat from Oz to Pinas - my cousin (who works as a flight attendant) always brings tons of steak whenever work brings him to Australia. I just don't know if he declared this or not. :)

    Just curious, how much will it cost you to buy a decent steak diyan sa Oz? (",)

    I heard the beef there are the best kaya always ito binibili ng pinsan ko...

    Pag may occasion ok na Hog's Breath, may Frequent Diner program pa sila. Pero sa mga pub mas mura at generous din ang serving. Thick cut, not like sa Pinas na super nipis parang bistek lang.

    Coles/Woolies mga 28/kg scotch fillet, galingan na lang ang timpla. Pag perfect na, pwede na upgrade to Angus.

    @psychoboy - ang meat sa sg mostly imported from Australia kaya mas mahal dyan ang steak.

    @Bryann - di rin ako marunong cook, sa Oz lang medyo natuto via cookbook at TV shows.

    Try mo salmon head, mura yan kasi ayaw nang aussies, kinikilabutan sila sa ulo. Sinigang, grilled, paksiw - bahala ka na, basta tirhan mo kami.
