I agree with you… Toronto’s getting frosty already… Arroz caldo with Tokwa and some Port will be great for a comfort meal…

It will be better if tokwa and baboy with vinegar is on top. Anyway, love this recipe.

Wow! Looks yummy. I will make this tomorrow but I will use chicken cubes because I do not have any chicken broth. I have a good tokwa at baboy recipe that I can share here.
