Sophia's Garden Resort Chocolate Cake

On a rainy afternoon, just about to go for a swim, we decided to wait out the rain and have some comfort food. We had hot chocolate drink paired with very moist carrot cake together with this slice of chocolate cake.

Panghimagas Avocado-Banana

Scoops of avocado and sliced bananas folded in with condensed milk. Thank you Ruth for the avocado. Thank you Tita Ruby for the inspiration to make this wonderful treat.

Croissant-Donut

I think it tasted like crispy bicho-bicho honestly. But I love bicho-bicho. One of my friends said it taste like otap. Another friend when she gave her mom said at first bite "Wow sarap! taste like otap". This is the most expensive donut I bought to date. Just for the novelty of the experience I guess.

Tinapa

Tulingan

A childhood favorite. My Lola Abeng used to cook this fish very slowly almost the whole day using an old earthen blackened clay pot and firewood is preferred to have that smokey flavor. These were on offer by my suki at the weekend market. We then fry it to crispy goodness to be paired with the (fern) pako salad.

El Nido Grilled Seafood

Ka Inato's Sashimi

A recent trip in Puerto Princesa gave the perfect opportunity to try Ka Inato. This is one of the best sushi sashimi I've tasted in a very long while. The cucumber and pineapple on the side is a good and are surprisingly perfect refresher on the palate. Servings are very generous.

Ken Afford Palm Sunday Lunch

Been wanting to eat in one of the best rastaurants and happily surprised that Ken Afford is on the list. Blast from the past suddenly been craving for squid salpicao. Their sisig was also voted as one of the best in the metro. And for our veggies we ordered the crispy kangkong. These are our usual orders way back when Ms. Chato introduced me to this resto in the late 1990's. They are now located just behind the citibank branch along Katipunan.
