Sick and peckish and a recipe for Japanese vegetable curry rice
I took the whole day off from work today (and half of yesterday). At the office yesterday, my head started to hurt really bad. Sudden movements of the head felt like my skull was being cracked open. Laughing was equally hard. Apologies to my friends...
Japanese potato salad and a reunion of “crazies”
Guess who’s back in Manila? Ate Bel and family! We last saw each other over 5 years ago, then the Masaki family moves back to Japan so the children can experience a normal Japanese life. Now they are back in Manila for Masaki-san’s 2-year “call...
Batanes yellow rice – my newest guilty pleasure
I am a big rice lover; I tried to live without it for an extended period of time but I kept going back to it. I do try to keep it healthy by buying only the healthier brown variety and controlling intake. But my trip...
Bicol’s Pancit Bato
I have just returned from a long weekend of sun, sand and sea in Camarines Norte. I’ve fallen head over heels with Bicol — its sights, its people and most definitely, its food. I was never a fan of coconut milk because of the “revolution”...
Tocino and bagoong rice
I finally got my Twitter feed up and running, and I have a shoutbox/chatboard now — see the sidebar! 🙂 not sure if the shoutbox is a good idea or not, but whatever. Anyway, on to the main topic of this post…I think that the...
Longanisa pasta win and Bauan’s Londres
My addiction to Lucban longanisa is no secret. I think it is perfection in all its garlicky glory. Tonight, I used it in my aglio-olio pasta to recreate 1st Colonial Grill’s Guinobatan Longanisa pasta. I tasted this pasta in February when we were in Bicol...
Taco rice bowl
My last kitchen experiment left me with lots more salsa than I could consume. I need to replenish my nacho chip supply, which for some weird reasons, seem to disappear into thin air in less than 24 hours after purchase. I found a very easy...
Homemade salsa version 1.0
The first team nacho night at Vernon’s apartment was a huge success. On Friday, we had nachos, roast chicken and tons of beer. We didn’t want anything that involved lots of cooking so we bought everything from SM Aura and the only complicated things were...
Strangebrew – Pancit habhab and Lucban longanisa episode
I remember watching this episode. That shrill “pansiiiit” call by the habhab vendor, Tado’s fart, making longanisa. God, they used to make great TV before. And Tado and Erning were probably ad-libbing 90% of the time. Buti pala nakakatulong ang barkada no. Sa iba mong...
My tofu steak recipe version 1.0
I love Teriyaki Boy’s tofu steak. Can’t blame me. You really cannot resist this dish of crunchy tofu with a savory sauce that has the perfect balance of salty and sweet.I remember that my colleagues even gave me tofu steak for my birthday simply because...
Ampalaya-less pinakbet
I love pinakbet. It’s inexpensive, healthy and easy to cook. Unfortunately, it also has one of my most hated vegetable in the world: ampalaya (bitter gourd). I’ve hated ampalaya ever since I can remember. When my father got into an ampalaya business with my godfather,...
