Here are our top 5 picks in no particular order:
- Tinapa/ Smoked Fish – Lucena’s pride pasalubong! There are different kinds of fish that can be smoked and made into tinapa. Some of these are the smoked herring fish (tinapang tamban) and the smoked mackerel clad fish (tinapang galunggong).
- Broas (Lady Fingers) – A yummy pastry made from eggs and vanilla. Sariaya, Quezon’s specialty.
- Longganisang Lucban – Another specialty from Lucban, Quezon which is very popular because of its distinctive taste.
- Yema Cake – the famous cake from Tayabas. It is famous for its milky and sweet taste because instead of putting on icing as topping for the cake, they put on yema (condensed milk mixture) as its topping.
- Budin (Cassava Cake) – another specialty product of Tayabas which is also available on buses. But nothing beats the taste of the original Tayabas product. ^_^
