Last weekend was bacon galore. A “kitchen situation” such as this happens when you haven’t done your weekly visit to the market and all’s left inside your ref is bacon, asparagus, chicken liver and half a kilo of mussels. Hors … Continue reading Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Livers
Malay’s nasi lemak? Or Singapore’s chicken rice? Or it may be a question of what you want your rice to be cooked with. Rice in nasi lemak, which literally means “rice in cream”, is steamed with coconut cream. It is … Continue reading Nasi Lemak or Chicken Rice?
Ang pagkaing Pinoy, kaysarap lalo na’t may kasamang ginisang bawang. Ang larawang ito ay piniritong bawang para pambudbod sa ibabaw ng aking nilutong goto kaninang tanghalian. YUM!

Below are little A‘s chocolate ice cream in cones. Aren’t they lovely and colorful? Ganyan talaga ang itsura pag hindi ice cream scooper ang gamit hehehe! Food, most of the time, is always about spices and here are the colors … Continue reading Lasang Pinoy, Sundays Week#14: Colorful
I can never say no to the creamy goodness of beef kaldereta. The melted cheese and the grainy texture of liver pate mixed with tomato sauce and flavorful beef stock – definitely fabulous as rice topping. Funny how I always … Continue reading La.Pi.S12: Beef Kaldereta

Oh yeah… Ces has announced to the whole blogging world it’s our birthday week! Woo hoo!
I could have waited till my day and blog about it but I remember my kid’s cake last January that I never had the time to show off…
When he’s sixteen, he could brag to his friends that while everybody else had their 7th birthday parties at McDonalds or Jollibee, he’s had his at Hooters! Complete with a birthday song and kisses from the ladies! You should see how happy he was!
Ever heard of Beijing hot pot? It is similar to the South-east Asian steamboat in concept but with a different flavor. Our local friends say it originates in Mongolia, and yeah, we’ve actually tried Mongolian hot pot (and barbecue) long … Continue reading La.Pi.S#7: Hot Pot

Ever heard of quilo babi? It’s a quick and easy recipe which, I was told, is similar to the older version of Kapampangan’s sisig babi. The typical souring agent is kalamansi but lemon is just as great. Click here to … Continue reading Lasang Pinoy, Sundays: Quilo Babi
I like a slice of lemon in my glass of coke and even inside my bottle of beer. But ever heard of lemon water? This refreshing, rejuvenating drink is simply water with slices of lemon in it. I now have this habit of having a pitcher of lemon water next to me while working.
Wish it is summer already but being further down under means I am experiencing the exact opposite of the official barbecue season. For the record, I am definitely not one of those who could have outdoor BBQ during cold … Continue reading La.Pi.S03: Outdoor Barbecue

As I have this kiwi photo for La.Pi.S.01, I kinda googled for some information about this fibrous-skinned fruit with green flesh, edible-crunchy tiny seeds and acidic flavor that add up to a very unique taste and was I surprised!
