Friar Francisco de Otazo, S.J., the first missionary to teach the Catholic faith to the people of Catbalogan, arrived in the Philippines in 1596 and created the Catbalogan Mission.

Tamalos has become synonymous with Samar — particularly the city of Catbalogan This is Tamalos a watery/ saucy delicacy in Samar, mexican inspired. It’s called, aptly, tamalos, though instead of chicken, tamalos uses pork – and lots of melt-in-your-mouth pork fat.
