Well.. tried about everything to keep my filipina wife satisfied....,sea bass,anchovies,rice,noodles,adobo,humba and calamari,but still she always ask me for kangkong,dried fish,malungay,fresh shrimp and raw banana
Can anyone advise me a store that will send regular parcels of such foods that my wife desires as we do stay near a store....
is shes expecting
you could get the kangkong in tesco. for the fresh shrimp, if you are near billings gate, you could get it from there.
we have bananas here and also shrimps?
why not take her to the local supermarket and show her some other foods,because we may not have that exact food but a close alternative.
i have learnt to do what my wife says!
There's tiger prawns, dried fish and malunggays(frozen) at filipino store. Where do you stay? Which raw bananas?
Saba? I can't find it here that's why my luggage was full of saba bananas and mangoes when I arrived here weeks ago.

I thought dried fish and cheese are the ones.
Will not do it again.
They only throw them in the bin if you get caught, unlike the US where they execute you ...... the wife was sentenced for a bananaI didn't know that boss

It's all down to how you define 'personal use' http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/customs/banned-restricted.htm#2
You aren't allowed ANY meat or fish though.

I read and saved it now. They only accepts fruits from some EU countries.
Ours is more sweeter.
Thanks again!
Good thing you were not caught!!
Probably not as good as fresh but... http://shop.waiyeehong.com/index.php...0¤cy=GBP

So not to worry!
lots of kangkong in chinese shops, indian and pinoy stores. i get the small bananas from an indian store here and they are exactly like what we have back home if she likes saba she can try plantain its just as good. dried fish u can buy from any asian stores, normally from thailand.Well.. tried about everything to keep my filipina wife satisfied....,sea bass,anchovies,rice,noodles,adobo,humba and calamari,but still she always ask me for kangkong,dried fish,malungay,fresh shrimp and raw banana

God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the courage to change the things i can and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people i had to kill because they pissed me off.
it might be she just miss fil food
Jim

oo indeedit might be she just miss fil food
same us or i miss [tuyo ]dried fish
But it is just such a natural conclusion to reach
Now if it had been Kangkong with Bagoong or Green Mango & Bagoong, I would have said yep definitely really expecting
Jim
Better get her tested,she keep sending me shopping for young mangos and sour tasting fruits hehehe.Unfortunately the small Tesco store here is very limited,and there is no asian stores here,a few asian resturants but am sure they will not sell me some there kangkong
