Can I try?

Hey, Allan. Did I hear right when you asked "Can I try?" Did you mean try to open one yourself (yikes) or taste it?

Pebs-Yeah I wanted to cut the coconut with the tabak (that's what they call the large knives there...I think).

carmel - yeah, but it was at a dirty videoke bar in Tagaytay, and it wasn't very good. But I'm sure other people make it better.

Yummy Yummy buko...you should have tried opening one up, its not that hard just dont lose a finger. How far is Bicol from Manila, minus the breakdown? Probably around 8 hours or so.

bicol is about 14 hours from cavite, so I guess 8-10 from manila. It seems pretty easy to lose a finger dude.
