It was my first time to go out on a food blogging trip far away from my family but you know why I joined it? Because it’s US Potato Safari 6! And I’ve read a lot about how exciting this annual activity is, where participants visit different restaurants to discover dishes that used US Potatoes ingeniously. Group photo at MexiMama, Day 2 of US Potato Food Safari 6 As a home cook, I find it exciting to imitate dishes from the restaurants where my family eat out during special occasions or on weekends. I find it fun to tweak recipes and...
I got curious of this cookbook Bongga Sa Kusina by Regine Velasquez kaya I bought it. I love watching cooking shows especially if the hosts are celebrities I adore. Feeling ko, it puts them into a level na I can reach them and that we have something in common. When I am able to cook their dishes, I feel I get much closer to these celebrities. 😋 The recipes curated in this cookbook was from Regine’s TV show Sarap Diva. Sadly, I wasn’t able to watch any of the episodes of Sarap Diva because I’m not much of a...
What’s a cheese board? Basically, it’s a smorgasbord of delicious finger foods you like, but mostly cheese. Well, that’s my description of a cheese board. You pair your cheese with some red or white wine but if there will be kids, they can eat some of the biscuits and put some jam, or the nuts and some candies which you can include too. To quote wikipedia though: A cheeseboard (or cheese course) may be served at the end of a meal, either replacing, before or following dessert. The British tradition is to have cheese after...
We are frequent visitors of Ever Gotesco Mall Commonwealth since I was a teenager. When I’ve had the kids, we go to this area because we can still find many interesting shops at this mall which aren’t present inside the 3 giant malls near our home. I’ve just recently found out that there are a lot more things to do better than shopping when you go to this area – food! I was lucky to be included in the recent Grand “Food Crawl” held by EVER Group of Companies in Calle Bistro – a new lifestyle strip...
We’ve loved eating in Bonchon since the day we discovered it at SM Fairview. My daughters were still toddlers then when we tried our first soy glazed chicken and until now, we often crave for the crispiness and the sweet soy flavor. Just this week, we tried eating at Bonchon Ever Gotesco Commonwealth branch. It was our first time to eat at this branch and enjoyed it because the place was spacious and clean and the service was good. Kiddie Adventure Meal includes Free Bonchon Chicken Poppers and Kiddie Activity Sheet Bonchon Ever...
Have you ever attended a Tupperware party? I’ve heard of parties like these when I was younger, when my hardworking aunts and my lola will do all these different jobs to make ends meet and to support my titas’ tuition fees in college. Though I was still so young back then but I can already remember that despite the fact that our lives were difficult financially, we could still get by with our food by selling “supot” (small recycled paper for packing small things in the market – onions, garlic, sili), by selling cooked food in...
It’s the middle of the school year and since my daughters are in higher school levels, the more daunting their school lives have become. We all wake up very early to prepare for school and they arrive home just an hour early before dinner. They’ve got 8 mentally draining subjects (excluding physical education) and then a mountain of assignments when they...
If you want to eat comforting and HongKong style Chinese food, Yeah Yeah Chinese Cuisine is a great place to be. Tucked within the not-so-busy Hemady Street in E. Rodriguez, Quezon City, on the 2nd floor of Hemady Square building, you’ll easily see this spot in the end corner. Ambiance If you will dine in during the day, you’ll find the restaurant filled with natural light and that was why I got my best food photos ever in this restaurant. The seats and tables are well spaced out and can cater to small and big groups of people....
