goat intestines stew

This is goat intestines stewed, literally, with its own juice--the extract of the masticated grass inside the intestines. It's a savory, bitter soup favored by Ilokanos in the Philippines and all over. And goat's is prized for this kind of exotic dish, called "pinapaitan", aside from beef or carabao (water bufallo). It's not really an exotic one as this is so common in the Philippines especially in the Ilocos or Ilokano-speaking areas in the country.
