Leche Flan (with Better Pictures)
Because I checked and the pictures from the last time were horribly ugly and supposedly since I”m an up and coming food blogger, learning is part of it. Look at my old post here and look at my pictures now This is short of actually giving myself a pat on the back. But hey
Philippine Mangoes
I cannot believe that I am reaching my second year of blogging and I have not yet featured Mangoes on their own. When I was in Macau and has jumped off the high tower for the bungee jump, I remember sharing small talk with the person removing my harness. The exchange went like: Him: Where … Read more
Bukayong Guyabano (Sweetened Soursop)
I still remember how I reacted when my mom told me to try the bukayong guyabano. I repeatedly asked around 5 times, “Bukayong guyabano?” Guyabano, as I have mentioned, but not featured, is one of my favorites fruits or shakes. The sweet pulp is yummy to eat when picked and grown just right. When an … Read more
Restaurant Review: Tajiyama, Mall of Asia
Menu In a heavily populated mall, it is nice to find some quiet breather when we can actually hear each other with out too much noise. The restaurant wasn’t our first choice, but it was 1pm, we were hungry, and the restaurant of choice closes at 2, so headed to this place. They only serve … Read more
Easy Caesar Salad Dressing
I started my love affair with salad only recently. And up to now, I still continuously discover salads, thought not new, that I end up really liking. My sister brought home an order of Chicken Caesar Salad from Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf and I fell in love with the salad. I never knew consciously … Read more

This is obviously not an end of a recipe. I like croutons but not enough that I’ll make them for eating At first, I thought that this was too simple to blog about on its own. But there’s more steps than just the usual that I make, which is to dice, toss and bake the … Read more
Happy Chinese New Year! :)
Being a very culturally friendly country, the Philippines observes a lot of holidays that aren’t originally its own, or at least those not inherent to the majority (and I think that’s why we are a favorite of all foreigners). One of these practices is to observe the Chinese New Year. Though everyone for sure knows … Read more
Restaurant Review: Joey Pepperoni, SM Calamba
A restaurant adapts in so many ways and this includes adding new items that sometimes makes a non-selling store sell. I have never been fond of Joey Pepperoni having eaten here before and finding their pasta abysmal. I’m not the best cook, but I know what I like, and their pasta taste cheap. We were … Read more
Corn and Corn
I always knew there was white corn and yellow corn available here in the country, or at least in Manila. It wasn’t until I started researching for this blog that I realize that maize, which I find repeatedly mentioned whenever I watch TV as an African or South American corn, is the same white corn … Read more
Philippine Holiday Feasting
I just have to explain a bit of the Filipino practices, knowing that a lot of the people who follow my blog are not Filipinos. Filipinos both celebrate the eve before Christmas and New Year with a huge feast. It’s a tradition that we eat ham and queso de bola, among other things, once the … Read more
