Grilled Cheese Sandwich + French-Pressed Coffee

05.19.2012 by Leah // Leave a Comment

We love grilled cheese sandwich!   I wish I could make this for our breakfast but if I will add up the cost of imported cheeses (you have to use at least 3 cheese varieties to come up with a perfect grilled cheese sandwich), big wholewheat or multi-grain loaf, and the spices that goes with it (to add flavor) – you’ll realize that it’s better off buying a ready-made one.

Our favorite is the one from Starbucks.  It’s called Ultimate Grilled Cheese and costs P140.00.  That’s already value for your money considering that it’s made up of multi-grain bread filled with herbed flavored spread, roasted garlic, gruyene cheese, emmenthal cheese, feta cheese, provolone cheese, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese and hungarian sausage.

Now this is what I call a deluxe breakfast:

Meet our newest breakfast buddy:  a Bodum 4-cup French Press (or simply a Coffee Press) which we bought at Starbucks some weeks ago:

We opted for a coffee press instead of a coffee maker because we already have an electric kettle and don’t like another electric appliance that will just duplicate the function of the one we have right now.   Plus, we love making our coffee with a coffee press because it captures more of the coffee’s flavour and retains its essential oils better than in a coffee maker (which is usually trapped in coffee filter papers).     We can also use this in brewing ground tea leaves.

This Bodum French Press is priced at less than P1,000.00 and is available at all Starbucks coffee shops.

Have a great Saturday, everyone!

I'm glad I invested in this Freshair 3 air and sur I'm glad I invested in this Freshair 3 air and surface purifier last year. It's the only air purifier in the market with proven technology to kill 99.96% of Airborne and 99.98% of Surface SARS-CoV-2 👍 I had it placed in the office so I don't need to bring anymore my portable UV sterilizer and portable plasma ion purifier. With Manila on extended GCQ and the vaccine roll-out still being finalized, we cannot afford to be complacent. Mas lalo pa dapat mag-ingat with various new strains coming out, too 😬 Safety should be our top priority 👍 @freshairpurifiers

Hi Daddy! Lapit na ang birthday mo, and you will c Hi Daddy! Lapit na ang birthday mo, and you will celebrate it in heaven na ☁️☁️☁️ Pero kasama mo pa rin kami magce-celebrate. Same as last year, we will celebrate it at home dahil may #covid_19 pa rin. You will remember that last year, yours is the first birthday we celebrated in quarantine. I just came from Baguio (for work) and  someone from our group tested positive. Hindi na tayo nakapagpa-picture dahil puro nasa #covid_19 ang attention natin. We miss you, daddy! I hope you like your flowers today, mas marami na green leaves kaysa flowers. Just the way you like it. 💚💚 #theoriginalplantito

It taste of home, with warmth and love in every bite! 💕 It's great for breakfast or even as dessert. Best eaten warm with  vanilla cream generously poured on top! 😋

It's so spacious and so safe in there. I wore double masks (KN95 and fabric mask from @quins.ph) and my favorite scrub cap from @unisol.ph_ with buttons on both sides for the mask ear loops. It kept my ears from hurting and kept my hair intact too. Never mind if I look more like a nurse than a patient here 😁 Safety first over porma 😜
