SM CITY BALIWAG LAUDS FLAVORS OF BULACAN WITH THE UNVEILING OF 16 FT DIA OKOY BILAO
A massive 16-foot-diameter  okoy bilao  highlighted the celebration of Bulacan’s rich culinary heritage during the launch of SM City  Baliwag's  “ Bestival  Chef,” held in line with SM’s Foodie Festival campaign, on September 21.  The team of  Okoy  King, a homegrown brand that serves original  okoy  recipes from the City of  Baliwag , used at least 200 kilograms of shredded squash to create the giant  okoy bilao .
