Cold rock Ice cream : a taste of Oz

Browsing on my Facebook account, a click a link of Metro Deal.

Live your City for Less... Metro Deal offer HUGE discounts for spa treatments, food buffets, hotel accommodations and may more. As they say, 50% discount is 'too good to be true.' Nevertheless, I gave it a try. :)
I purchased two vouchers of the 53% for two large cup of ice cream in Cold Rock Ice Creamery.

We went to their branch at the Trinoma Mall, Quezon city and we never failed. We got a cup of Very Strawberry + Aussie Vanilla with cookie dough and Dark Chocolate + Coffee with fudge brownie chunks.

smashing the Choco-coffee concoction

The store is like a haven for ice cream lovers. Select your ice cream (can be in combination of many flavors) and choose your mix-ins (can be nuts, candies, frozen fruits, chocolate bar chunks, pastries, etc.) It is very personal.

I think me and my sister found our new love!! wahahaha, uber tasty ice cream in every spoonful :)

'Til the next best deal! I'll keep you posted guys.

Turrones de Casoy: the melts in your mouth sugar-rush

Whenever we are having a road trip to Pampanga . We never failed to get some Turrones de Casoy (nougats with cashew nuts wrapped in melts in your mouth paper-thin wafer). The edible wrapper compliments the sweet honey nougat candy and the roasted chopped cashews on it. Before, we even concocted a Mango-turrones cake, very yummy! The layers of chiffon cake has chopped Turrones de Casoy and Mango-whipped cream. The crunch from the nougats had character to the soft chiffon and sweet mango, too bad there no pic. :( Not recommended for diabetics. This sweet pastry is originally made in Pampanga. However, Turrones de Casoy is now well available in supermarkets that showcases Filipino delicacies. The prices ranges from P75.00 - P200.00 depending on the weight per pack. It comes in 2 packaging: (1) in styrofoam plate wrapped in clear plastic contains roughly 25 pieces; and (2) in shallow tin can that has almost 50 pieces. xoxo tere ;)

Bibingka, a piece of Christmas is just around Manila

Browsing my Flickr account, I found some old pics and of course found a Christmas goodie that can be enjoyed whole year-round. Filipino Yuletide celebration is not complete without savoring some oldie but sure an all-time favorite Bibingka and Puto Bumbong. Bibingka is a composed of rice flour, coconut milk, and water. It is often topped with margarine, sugar, sliced cheese and salted egg. There is an old store named Felimar's Bibingka located near Tayuman Station of the LRT line 1. It's a humble store, with a quite dark ambiance, filled with several pugon (stone stove) and ceramic round pans. People from all walks of life often visits this store anytime of the day (yes! they can satisfy your late night craving :) ).Their best seller is this Bibingka...(i'll update the pic to a more vivid resolution once we have visited the store again.) The texture of their Bibingka has a perfect combination of a fluffy pancake, hint of the salty-ness from the melted cheese, slig...

Arny - Dading's Peachy-Peachy: new discovery oozing with topping

Pichi-pichi is one of the many Pinoy delicacies. It is made from ground cassava, water and sugar; steamed until transluscent and topped with either cheese or grated coconut. my sister with Arny-Dading's peachy-peachy cheeeessyy!!! peachy-peachy We passed through Mindanao ave. extension and turned to Congressional ave., our driver told us that there is a place were many motorists drop by to buy pichi-pichi. :) We bought a styro pack with 10 pcs of pichi-pichi to give it a try. Well, the 60-peso snack was worth it! LOTS of cheese topping!!! and i mean lots of it!! haha ( compared to other sellers of pichi-pichi ) I have eaten lots of version of pichi-pichi. Arny-Dading's tastes like those from Amber's but less sweeter. Maybe they added some lye to it having the pichi-pichi taste like C uchinta (another kind of rice cake). Checking out their leaflet, they have many branches in Metro Manila and even some provinces. Also, they are not only selling peachy-pe...
