Nourriture | Food

This is a meal I made before we went to the hospital. I actually don't do much cooking but because my grandma kind of ordered me to do this, I don't have much choice. But I enjoyed it and that was actually the first legit Filipino meal that I cooked. Hooray! I can't really teach you guys how I did it because all you do in this meal is wash and cut your ingredients, and boil it! And then add your seasonings. That's just the way it works. Or at least according to my grandma. So okay. I think the most challenging part is actually the boiling process itself because in order to complete this recipe, you have to make sure that the veggies aren't soggy (which kind of happened) and then the pork is ultra tender (which happened) so it's like 50-50. You guys who cook are probably laughing at me now but whatever. 


This I'm an expert at. FRYING! :) Now this one I actually did just yesterday and I guess the biggest challenge in this one is actually making sure that everything's cooked. LIE! The biggest challenge is maintaining the shape. LOL. So what I did here is I sautéed the bacon with the onion and then I placed them in the same bowl with the eggs and then I placed the mushrooms there as well and then I added seasonings and cooked them again. Okay enough of my cooking. 


Since it's freaking warm, we treated ourselves with Halo-Halo which is always nice. I like them so much. 


Also, we bought some Mango Cake! We split this cake to six because we like to share. AND SAVE MONEY. LOL. TRUE STORY.


And since I did the cutting, MINE HAS MANGO TOPPING. That's all I have for this post guys. I hope you're all doing well.

My Cup of Tea

My Cup of Tea

I don't know what's up with this girl trying to sit in a different place and leaving us behind. Seriously, B? Seriously? 

So we took a photo without her. Hahaha

Actually since we went there kind of early, they've just turned on the AC so my sister decided to position herself near the AC unit for her own good. Meanwhile, since it's actually quite bearable, my  other sister and I stayed on the couch.


I got their Blueberry Cheesecake and my sisters got Mango Cheesecake and yeah. Actually, I actually ordered Strawberry but whatever. I order Blueberry almost every time when I was still a Medical Technology Intern so I just thought I'd try the Strawberry. But anyways.


Now, I actually don't know if they really used to look like this because in the laboratory, I really have no time to look at its appearance before sipping it or whatever but yeah. It looks quite unappetizing but it\s actually good. Also, the thingy inside looks more like a Greenberry rather than Blueberry. 


Then we asked our other sister to join us because the condition inside is getting better and even though she hesitated at first, she really can't do anything when I ordered her with my "follow my order or else" kind of tone. Haha just kidding. I love my sisters.


Good vibes! :)

How Sweet

How Sweet
Although life is full of shittery. Wait, what? Just kidding. Really though. There are a LOT of things we should be thankful for. In my previous post, I told you about the Japanese who visited the Philippines. This is what they got me! Yay! My sisters got more than I did but I understand! :) 


You know, I'm not really good in differentiating chocolates. They all tasted very much the same to me. :))


You already probably know that I don't like assorted stuff all that much but here's what the inside of the assorted cookies box looks like and I kind of don't know how I feel about them but I absolutely love the one with PISTACHIO! I love love love! The rest was okay but there's a particular cookie that I didn't like. It's the one at the upper right corner. It has sesame seeds and I don't really understand its flavor. Oh I also didn't like the cookie below that sesame cookie but I did finish it thinking I probably should give it a chance but after eating everything, nah, but it's okay. I mean, I'm probably neutral when it comes to it. That's all! :))

Teresita's. Food Trip.
My mom told me I was on Duty when they first tried eating here. And she also said that the owner of this restaurant is related to the owner of Razon's, a place where we eat often. We even tried their branch in Gua Gua. Anyways. 


Mom is love! I don't know what happened to her hair nor what she's doing but she's so awesome! :) Haha


My sisters are love! :) 

  

Poor little sister. Her order actually came in last.


My mom actually recommended this and it was good but not for the health. I mean, it's alright to try once in a while but you know, I wish I could check our lipid profile or something. 


And then her food arrived! Happy kid is happy.

  

Overall, I did enjoy my food. It's a lot like Razon's though so I wonder why my mom decided to eat there. I just don't know if Razon's serves Chicharon Bulaklak. Maybe not. Oh well. It was a fun night. I am happy. :)

Army Navy. UST.

Army Navy. UST.
Army Navy in UST is kind of new so it's always jump packed and all that but since we were so happy and we were really in the mood to celebrate the success of our Thesis Oral Defense, we didn't mind waiting. The thing is we were actually supposed to take-out the food and eat inside the uni but I guess we were lucky to be able to find a place inside so we stayed. 


That guy in a plaid shirt is my friend as well :)) Just saying. 


Thesis group mates minus 1. Oh well. 


Featuring AJ's creepy smile. Hahaha for some reason, nakakainis. Hahaha joke lang. Peace! :))


I had Burger there but actually, I was thinking of getting Chicken Burrito but since I already had Chicken Sandwich at Pancake House earlier, so I kind of changed up my mind. 


I'm gonna miss this group! Love! :)

Korean Village! :) Food Trip.

Korean Village! :) Food Trip.
Birthday Week! I told my mom that I want to eat here so we went. Thankfully, there's an available time. I really hate how this thing couldn't just happen naturally. On a Sunday, for example. But anyway.


My youngest sister actually had dinner already so when we got there, mom said she could have ice cream. This is what she got. I personally like Korean/Japanese ice creams because they are just perfect. I mean, not too sweet and all stuff like that. They're also rich in flavor which I like. I mean, who doesn't?


How vain is this? Hahaha anyways, they serve cold tea which is like, awesome. 


And these came! Love love love! I wasn't able to finish everything though. 


Calbi is love! I think we had so much meat that time. No regrets. It was so good. 


Bibimbap! If you don't know already, this is like my, favorite food of all time. Just so you know! What's interesting about their Bibimbap is that they serve it in their stone pot or whatever and it just makes the whole meal better! :) I love! It also came with Miso Soup with Tofu. 


Also! They serve the chili paste separately and I really consumed half this thing. And it was heaven! It's not that spicy though but nevertheless good. 


They also serve pineapple at the end of each meal. Sweet pineapples they are. Like, always.

Yakimix. Food Trip!

Yakimix. Food Trip!
It was my sister's birthday last Sunday and thank goodness for my schedule. Like, I was from night duty so whatever but the point is I'M OFF. So we went to Robinson's Place Manila a short while after I came home. That would be around 9:00 am I guess? Yup. So we went kind of early to buy my sister stuff.


This is the first plate that I got. Thought I'd share it with you. :)) The best thing that I liked in this buffet is that they have sea foods! Which I like. Actually, there's like a reminder on the table that says we should have a separate plate for cooked and raw stuff but you know, I really wanted to taste their Lechon Kawali so I got a piece of that. Surprisingly good so I definitely recommend you try it whenever you decide to eat there or something. 


Already cooking the stuff I got. I must say that the sea foods are really my fave. I also did enjoy everything else though. 


Hello to my "FROM DUTY" face. Haha mess.Can I just say that I am the person in-charge of actually grilling stuff and putting it to people's plates so when we took most of the photos, I was like "yung niluluto ko masusunog na!" Haha wala lang.


The one with the mayonnaise on top was DELISH! Like, it's not entirely raw. Kind of steamed and it was perfection! The rest was okay. I also like the one with TUNA in it. They also have a wide selection of sweets! Like, heaven.


I think the Chocolate Cake was popular because there were only two slices left on the table.


They got cakes, fruits, ice creams, jellos, tarts, fruit salads, sweet nuts, sweet potato chips, crinkles, cupcakes, and more!


Can I just say that these little things are love? I only had the cheesecakes though because I was already full but others actually don't look as appealing as the cheesecakes. I had two Blueberry Cheesecakse and one Cheese Mousse Cake, 


Awesome, right?

 Can I just say that I've just noticed that there's like a formed heart there? Awesome. And the white cake is actually the Cheese Mousse I was talking about awhile ago.


Us sporting our sweets! :) And mom was quite proud because the one she's holding is the same color as her top. Haha. Yun lang.
