Cooking Quest: Chimichurri Sauce

Posted on October 7, 2015 by Didi

Ever since I tried this sauce in Gaucho, the Argentine restaurant in Robinson’s Magnolia, it left a lovely impression on my palate.  I forgot about it for a while and then was reminded of it again when I tried Senor Pollo early this year.  Whenever we had simple get togethers at home, I would drive…

ALQUERIA at the Mega Fashion Hall

Posted on September 22, 2015 by Didi

I have to be honest.  This restaurant is one of those that I usually pass on.  Maybe because the company I am with are not typically ones who enjoy the Spanish cuisine that Alqueria offers.  I personally love paella, but I can’t finish one whole order – well, I can but it’s quite embarrassing to…

Ensaymada loooove from Portobello Bakery

Posted on September 9, 2015 by Didi

Whenever I’m asked what my favorite ensaymada is.  There is only one answer – it’s Chona’s Homemade Treasures Ensaimadas.  I swear, its the best that I’ve tried.  It has been my benchmark for all ensaymadas, I have this certain hesitation when trying ensaymadas to be honest – because I don’t want to be disappointed.  I…

I will get straight to the point. This is the Carnivore Lechon from Leonardo’s Lechon: Yes, those are sausages – 3 kinds to be exact, hungarian, kielbasa and chorizo then bacon, garlic potatoes and herbs. Once the manong hacked the lechon open, the aroma of the sausages, herbs and lechon filled the room.  It was…

I almost forgot about Ben’s Cookies! My friend Tin told me to try them when I happen to see one.  I thought, ano kaya yon?  And while walking along Oxford Street after shopping in Primark, I suddenly saw Ben’s Cookies!  I literally ran to the store which was across the street!  My Panget was confused,…

EATs Paris: Angelina & the famous Hot Choco

Posted on August 17, 2015 by Didi

I used to hate chocolates.  The was a time in the not so distant past that I disliked anything chocolate.  I refused to eat desserts with chocolate drizzles, ice cream and anything with chocolate on it.  I was a choco racist.  I did not understand friends who adored chocolates.  But it all changed when I…

EATs Hong Kong: Jade Garden’s Char Siu

Posted on August 17, 2015 by Didi

Hong Kong will forever be a favorite food destination for me.  It will forever be #1 in my list for quick getaways.  I like it because I am familiar with it.  I can be adventurous and try new restaurants or I can trust the ones that I’ve been to and liked all these years.  I…

Cooking Quest: Steamed Milk

Posted on August 7, 2015 by Didi

When I tried Yee Shun’s steamed milk – it piqued my interest.  I wondered how they were able to make this kind of dish – so silky, soft and flavorful.  The cashier (who I assumed is the owner) was very friendly – I told her that I loved the steamed milk  and that it was…
