This is called sea grapes in English but I am used to calling it ar-arusip.
I am not sure how others like to have this but one thing for sure, I love it with sliced fresh tomatoes, sliced onions and sliced green mangoes (not in photo). I would put a little fish sauce (the bagoong) with a little bit of vinegar. Best eaten with fried or grilled fish.

Mussels with Garlic Butter
Mar 6th 2009greenbucksFood Friday & Philippines & Photos & Visualizations
Below is one of my eldest daughter’s favorite weekend Sunday lunch fare, mussels with butter that has garlic bits and parsley.
Finely chop fresh garlic and fresh parsley and add to butter to make the butter mixture. I think I used spreadable margarine with this batch and fresh basil bits instead of parsley. Works any way, the taste is still good enough.
You can use a food processor for easier handling of the butter mixture. I used this to make it. This mixture can be refrigerated and used with bread that can be paired with any pasta dish.
