If you are like me who hasn't been there :) ... tomorrow's the time to sample what the Basque country and the north of Spain has to offer. This will not be in the restaurant, but in a cooking demo at The Maya Kitchen where VASK executive chef Jose Luis Gonzalez shall showcase his favorite specialties.

How to make ramen noodle soup at home
I missed Chef Seiji Kamura's class on how to make Japanese-style ramen at The Maya Kitchen as announced here. But thankfully, I was able to get hold of the recipes he taught in the class so am sharing them here. Disclosure: the ramen recipes haven't been tested by me yet (but I will, one of these days). Best to visit Japanese grocery stores in Manila like Fuji Mart, New Hatchin, Sakura and some others if some of the ingredients are unfamiliar to you. Some of the major supermarkets like Metro Gaisano, Landmark and even SM have extensive foreign selections ... Continue Reading...
Ramen Yushoken: love at first shoyu
I've said somewhere in this blog that am not crazy about ramen, so I didn't really line up at every new ramen resto that Manilans obsessed with . Maybe because one of my first major encounters with the Japanese noodle soup didn't end on an impressive note (sorry Ukkokei Ramen Ron fans). Secondly, am not the kind of person who goes for soups.

Family fun day with #OishiOWow
Gosh. The snack giant Oishi is almost the same age as me :) It was in 1974 when Oishi Prawn Crackers and Kirei were born. Those two bring back childhood memories but there are so many variants now. Just some of the things I love: Oishi's Gourmet Picks Potato Chips Kimchi Flavor and Cheese-Soaked Sponge Crunch...heavenly! To celebrate 40 years of snack food goodness, the brand held a family-type event where they invited celebrities and not-so celebrities like me (haha!) for A Day of O Wow Surprises! Venue was the Skye Lounge on the rooftop of the W Building at the ... Continue Reading...
