Broccoli cheese soup – a rainy day saviour
Some crazy summer we are having in Budapest right now! Saturday was awesome because it was warm and sunny, so we headed out to Orczy tér for some badminton and Frisbee. Then on Sunday, it freaking rained ice! We almost didn’t make it to Barako...
Saturdays are fluffy pancakes day
When I was a kid, I treated pancakes as kind of luxurious breakfast that we could only have once in a while. The ones my mother made were from a box; I really thought it was a pain to make pancake mix from scratch because...
Champorado cravings satisfied!
Spring is finally here! The past week was very sunny, and the weather was quite pleasant – hovering around 20 degrees, just the way I like it. But this week, we are back to cloudy days, and it’s been a bit chilly. And on days...
Filipino beef tapa recipe
One quick effect of moving to Budapest: I lost quite a bit of weight. No exercise. How? No Filipino food! I was cut off instantly from my ultimate favorites: sinigang, kaldereta, Bicol express, adobo, tapa, tocino. In Budapest, there is no Jollibee, Max’s or Mary...

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...
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...
