Food. Travel. Bargain finds. Random thoughts. A bright spot for sharing ideas and starting conversations!

Chicken and Chinese Chorizo Stew

12.15.2011 by Leah //

From the July 2011 Yummy magazine, here's another recipe that's so easy to prepare and yet so tasty, you wouldn't think the ingredients are plain and very few.  What's left from this dish we put in the fridge and after a week the flavors just became better! For this recipe, you will only need: 1 tablespoon cooking oil 2 to 3 pieces chorizo Macau, sliced 3 cloves ... READ MORE

Isabel Gatuslao’s Artichoke Wrappers

12.11.2011 by Leah //

I learned about Isabel Gatuslao from Daphne Osena-Paez's blog.  Isabel is the genius behind Daphne's new blog design.  I've been following her blog since.   I love it when she features her design projects and when she documents the design process with pictures and her own brand of wit. Just recently, Isabel introduced in her blog the artichoke wrappers that she designed.    ... READ MORE

Food Post: Bacolod Chicken

12.10.2011 by Leah //

For me, the best chicken inasal in town is from Bacolod Chicken.   Remember my post about Chicboy?   Chicken inasal does not and should not taste like chicken barbeque, it's made of a unique marinade and blend of spices, and grilled without turning the chicken skin into black. We haven't eaten at Bacolod Chicken in a while so last week, when we were cruising Jupiter Street ... READ MORE

Sweet Gifts for Christmas

12.09.2011 by Leah //

Christmas is that time of the year where we receive the most number of C's - cookies, cakes, chocolates and candies.   All sweet food!  And we love receiving them, right? Unfortunately for me, I am not a sweet-tooth person but I do crave for one once in a while.    On the other hand, AJ loves sweets.   But I do appreciate good dessert food (as long as it's not sugary sweet) ...

Mark and Jolina’s Shabby Chic + Vintage + Colorful Wedding

12.06.2011 by Leah //

I've been waiting for their wedding pictures for weeks!   Knowing Jolina's colorful fashion accessories, I know that she will somehow channel her love of vibrant colors into her dream wedding. The result was a combination of shabby chic + vintage + colorful garden wedding held at Splendido Golf and Country Club.   Mango Red did a superb job in covering their wedding, their ... READ MORE

Christmas at Rockwell Powerplant

12.05.2011 by Leah //

Rockwell Powerplant is probably the only mall in Manila which stick to the same Christmas decors every year.   Red and sparkling gold are always the color themes of their decors, and I never tire of seeing them year after year.   It has become a tradition, and something that I look forward to. These hanging decors are visible from each floor of Rockwell ... READ MORE

Ayala Triangle’s Lights and Sounds Show

12.04.2011 by Leah //

We were supposed to go to Serendra after running errands at Glorietta yesterday, but because of the horrendous traffic at McKinley Road, we turned back to Ayala Avenue and went to check the much-talked about Lights and Sounds Show at the Ayala Triangle park instead. And boy, what a sight it was!  No wonder it's always packed with people every night.    The lights (I think ... READ MORE
