Special K cereals. Perhaps I have to thank the family gene pool for my fairly good metabolism. It has ensured that I will not balloon to obscene proportions even though am an avid foodie and do eat a lot. Admittedly, age has caught up with me and my midsection, nobody's perfect after all, and am increasingly tempted to curb my cravings or munch in moderation if I am to stay in tiptop shape. So now am trying the Special K diet which I first read about from Becky Kho, the editor in chief of fab new magazine Yummy (who I also had a good fortune of meeting ... Continue Reading...
LP 17: Egg’s a Deal! It’s squash yema
squash yema Thanks to Angelo of Eat Matters who is hosting this month's Lasang Pinoy, a Filipino food blogging event with focus on any egg-based recipe, I had to rummage through my best culinary memory for a dish that can truly be considered Egg's a Deal! The result is this simple but great-tasting yema; not just any yema, mind you, but a squash or pumpkin yema that my veggie-hating kiddos relished with gusto. Kids always love sweets and so entranced were they with the taste that they forgot it's something they wouldn't eat otherwise if the squash was ... Continue Reading...

Coco loco at Cocorama Pancake Island & All-Day Groovy Cafe
coco murals2 Merriest Easter greetings to all. If everything works out well (that means waking up early), me and the kiddies will be having brunch today at this little mall resto I discovered recently.. a coconut-inspired cafe in the middle of the concrete jungle that is the mall in EDSA Shang-ri La. Upon first setting my eyes here, I have to admit that the place attracted me because of its cheery interiors, the bright, hippie-inspired murals plastered on its walls, blaring 60s funky music and its offerings ~ pancakes, shakes, omelets and more which are ...

At last… a Wagyu beef meal @ Malcolm’s Place
Malcolm's Place menu O-k-a-y, it's Holy Week now and Good Friday soon but please just allow me this little post on the nice Wagyu beef meal I had at this resto we stumbled upon right after the Blog Awards called Malcolm's Place. So it was after the Bloggies and there was a standing invitation to hop on over to Hula Hula Bar in EDSA Shang for a celebration party. Though the idea of cooling off with an ice-cold bottle of San Miguel very much appealed to me, the thought of traversing a major bus-filled highway set me back. Am just learning how to drive ...
