Ruben has been with our family for a few years now. He loves his food and likes to cook. He would cook laing for us back when we were eating meat. When I told him I wanted to try a vegan version, he very kindly tested it out for me. This is a family favourite, and Iā€™m not afraid to admit that he makes this better than I do! Maraming Salamat, Ruben.
