Yeah baby! I’m back (hope for good). My net issues seem to be gone for good and also managed to bloghop for a while and bookmarked few recipes that I would love to try. Here’s one from Stef (check out the original recipe) but instead of the good ole baking oven, I used the microwave.
Yeah it’s been a while I know. I’ve been really busy meeting submission deadlines, a larger than usual pile on my table that I only had time to write about Lasang Pinoy. And of course a lot of extracurricular activities not to mention the amount of time I spent updating the links in this blog.

There was also another article that says they open over 250 restaurants a year in China and operates in every Chinese province and region except Tibet. Hmmmm… but then, they were asked to stay out of Tibet.
Just when I am having some serious craving for chicken curry. Anyways, here’s my chicken hamonado recipe similar to my pork hamonado.
