Alavar sauce, the star of the show, is a delectable concoction hailing from the vibrant culinary scene of Zamboanga City. Crafted by the ingenious Maria Teresa Camins Alavar, this sauce boasts a tantalizing mix of coconut milk, the rich essence of taba ng talangka (crab roe paste), and an exquisite medley of aromatic spices. It's a well-guarded regional treasure, primarily savored at the esteemed Alavar Seafood Restaurant, where it all began.
