Noche Buena recipes from Chef Aracama

November 27, 2013 ·

As you can see, there have been no food and resto features for a long time. Am not about to blame Typhoon Yolanda, but some friends were really serious when they urged netizens (like me) not to post food photos while hunger was prevalent in Tacloban & neighboring areas. So be it! Anyway, this is not about food for the sake of eating. Will be sharing some recipes which you can use for the family's all-important gathering for either the Noche Buena (during Christmas Eve) or Media Noche (during New Year's Eve) this year. It is only three days before December after ... Continue Reading...

Holiday recipes from chef Sandy Daza

December 25, 2012 ·

The warmest Merry Christmas greetings to this site's readers and friends! So how was your celebration? We spent it in Manila like we've done through the years. The traffic and the shopping were toxic.. at one point I wished I was in another time, or another planet. Anyway, here's my half-finished table setting last night. I love Christmas coz of the decor we have to play with! Christmas is truly a big event in the Philippines, but from what I know New Year's here is an even bigger eating affair. We take out all round objects and the family table epitomizes the ... Continue Reading...

Instagram post 17910638044649185 Sometimes I miss the cuisine of Singapore and Malaysia. Am glad there are restaurants in the city whenever I get intense #Asianfood cravings. Roti Shop in Rockwell is one of them #notsponsored.

Over the weekend, I convinced my friend Maricel to try the cendol (iced dessert similar to halo-halo) and the #roti paratha with curry sauce. And of course, who doesn't love Hainanese chicken rice and white coffee? 💯💕😋

If there's a member of my family who stayed the most time indoors during this #lockdown, it's my youngest Lucia. It's good she hasn't complained at all. When talking to her, am glad she only has the nicest recollection of our last trip a year ago in Taiwan. We went ahead with our flight even though there was already fear of the virus then.

My daughter is a picky eater, but I noticed when traveling, she is more adventurous with food. We  always have fun going through our Taiwan photo album and recalling the nice hostel we stayed in, the perfectly crunchy fried chicken and all those #memories. It certainly helps tide me through the sadness of the present

Instagram post 17895511516880950 Google reminded me today about the #Taiwan trip with my darling daughter on Feb. 26, 2020.

I swear I normally don't wear mini skirts (especially at this age 😃). But I guess it's true that people do things they don't usually do.... when #traveling ✈️🏯⛩️ We have to look special for our #ootd

P.S. I get sentimental looking at my #travel photos **sniff

Instagram post 17905285330725685 We all know that we should practice proper hand hygiene to avoid getting sick. I have been doing this whenever I go out for errands. Thankfully, I have been healthy and not sick for a single day.  This only means that we really need to make handwashing a part of our lifestyle in the new normal, along with constant disinfection, wearing face masks and face shields and following social distancing protocols in common public areas.

Am glad there is a brand like Green Cross with a complete line of products to keep bacteria and viruses away. I always have #CleanHandsWithGreenCross anywhere I go. It's a good thing they have a handy alcohol and hand sanitizer which I always keep in my bag. And the whole family uses Green Cross Germ-Protection Soap which not only kills 99.9% of germs but also smells so good!

Instagram post 17865750830357541 #life update: two of my kids are now living independently and as a result of a more compact family, we no longer depend on a maid. This is a dedication post to my oldest daughter Dionne for being the rock I can count on. She's taking on more responsibilities these days with nary a complaint. I make sure I treat her once a week like ordering something online or buying her favorite cake. This Sunday found us having a mini-picnic outside eating the Acqua Pazza I cooked (poached fish in wine) and drinking Welch's Sparkling Rose. Not as fancy as fine dining, but it's always the little things that matter 💗💜🍇🍒🍹🥤

Instagram post 18070230664260327 The ongoing pandemic has made moms like me more meticulous about our family's health and hygiene. Am not the OC type but even a non-OC like me resolved to be careful and take extra precautions 😯😄

Zonrox products can kill the COVID-19 virus that's why I made sure we stocked on their products. I have been using my newest supermarket discovery, Zonrox Multi Clean in disinfecting high-touch surfaces. I love its fresh, long-lasting scent! 💗

Then I have my usuals, Zonrox Bleach Original and Zonrox Colorsafe to make our #laundry super clean and disinfected! These are staple items in my pantry which I can't live without!

We #DisinfectWithZonrox because an ounce of prevention is always better than a pound of cure. Let’s remember to always show our MALASAKIT to others because #TheVirusEndsWithUs!

Instagram post 18138136813149540 #ChineseNewYear is most felt here in Asia. Happy Year of the Ox to all my family, friends and business contacts 😊㊙️ Sharing this photo of the entrance to Manila's Chinatown. Existing since the 1500s, did you know this is the oldest #Chinatown in the world? It's always a delight to visit because of the #delicious food and bargain shopping finds 🧡 #Binondo #Ongpin #Manila #sinopinas #asia #philippines #culturetrip
Instagram post 17878741721126101 My son, my unico hijo, finally graduated from college (he was delayed by a year). You can just imagine how happy and relieved I was. For his birthday today, I slaved away in the kitchen to serve #homemade treats to the son and his friends. The highlight was the Aussie rib eye steak ordered from @sebastiansbutcherbox . I served it in  two ways - with marbled potatoes and over alfredo pasta. I thought I overcooked the meat  but it still turned out amazingly flavorful and tender. It made everyone's day definitely! 🥩♨️💯

Instagram post 17870382506215129 Moms like me have two main priorities right now: ensuring the health of our family and saving up for the "uncertain" future. Personally,  am always on the lookout for products that bring the most value for money, especially when it comes to grocery shopping. 

It's a good thing I discovered the new Champion by Energen. It's only 8 pesos per 35g pack and is fortified with essential vitamins, iodine, folic acid and calcium. It also has egg, which is a good source of protein.

My youngest Lucia loves its #delicious taste but as an adult, I dig it too because it tastes exactly like #hotchocolate 🍩🍫🥤🧡💯

Instagram post 17946028432426784 Do you appreciate being in your own country? I do. I love being in a tropical country where I don't have to work my arse off to pay high taxes. I do work so hard now to earn good money so I can afford state-of-the-art health insurance  and not  depend on a measly state pension.

Call me stupid for staying in good old #Pilipinas 🇵🇭💗However, migrating just to be an "ordinary worker" somewhere else may no longer be applicable in this borderless world. Am not saying NO to moving in the future, but it should be a place where I can fall in love with the culture, has cheap real estate and won't kill me with taxes left and right. Other countries in the #world are simply overrated 🌎✈️
