CEVICHE (Kinilaw) is a seafood dish popular here in Davao City.  Typically made from fresh raw fish marinated in citrus juices such as LIME or LEMON.  And added with some spices to make as a 'pulutan' or as a finger food.

 As the dish is not cooked with heat, it must be prepared fresh to maximize the risk of the food from ANISAKIS parasites.
