word of mouth

My vouchers for Sweet Pea (A Chef's kitchen) are about to expire. We have reserved it over the weekend as part of my sister's post birthday dinner. It was our first time to visit this quiant restaurant in Venice Piazza, McKinley hill, Taguig city. Sweet Pea serves mostly American comfort food. They have an array of appetizers and main dishes that will surely give you a *burp*. Taste - testing...  Hawaiian Potato salad (P 150.00) Your all-time favorite potato salad married with sweet pineapple tidbits. Their version has enough mayo dressing to coat each potato chunks. Topped with grated cheese and bacon bits, the savory taste of the salad compliments the sweet bite of the pineapple.  Beef tapa and crispy Pork belly sampler The dish comes with two kinds of dipping sauce: liver sauce and vinegar. both meats were crispy and yet suprisingly tender. No marinate used for the pork I guess (aside from the salt), you can taste the meat itself. I wonder...

After having an 'overtime' at work, I received an SMS from my sister saying we have pizza for dinner. To my surprise, it was HUGE 0_0... It was a New York-style Pizza from S & R Membership shopping . The setup of this supermarket is more like with that of in the US. Great finds from breads to appliances; even food service (yes, you can dine in), they all got it. I'd like to share with you some pics of the pizza we enjoyed. The size of this pizza is almost the size of an 18-inch Yellow cab pizza. This cost much cheaper at P549.00 per whole pizza and P99.00 per slice. It comes in four flavors: Hawaiian, Garlic Shrimp, Cheese, and New York-style. The verdict... IT'S simply DELICIOSO!! not too salty, loads of toppings, crust is soft, not too oily... I'm surprised that the crust didn't got tough after staying in room temperature in quite some time. I badly want to have a glance of S & R. Uber-excited, YAY! xoxo tere :)

I often visit the World Trade Center 's calendar for some expo's whole year-round. This February 24-27 is the 10th PhilFoodEx Food Expo. This event showcased everything about FOOD... Most of the participants are Entre-Pinoys (Filipino entrepreneurs) from all places around the country. From Bagnet of Ilocos Norte to Durian candies of Davao... all foodies gather on this event not only to buy but also to inform everyone what Filipinos CAN offer in the fast developing Food industry. For an entrance fee of P 50.00/ person and with 20% discount for Senior citizen, its worth it! First stop: eat with your eyes first at the Food Styling and Photography Competition on the entrance of the hall. Below are some shots of the mouth-watering entries: Next, if Batangas have their Baracco coffee that will make you say "Ala eh!", here is the proud Musang Coffee of Ifugao, Mountain province. Too bad, no free-taste this coffee is very expensive at P800.00 per pack, phew! If Italy have th...
