THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

The revolutionary Pressure Pan

01.12.2012 by Leah //

We received this wonderful gift last Christmas (thank you, Tita Raquel!) and it's our favorite kitchen buddy right now: Cooking was made easy with this Philkraft Pressure Pan which has triple ceramic coatings on both sides of the pan, enabling it to heat quickly and evenly.   As a result, you save energy, time and money! We cooked pork chops last weekend using the ... READ MORE

Food Post: Wee Nam Kee

01.10.2012 by Leah //

This is not the first time we've been to Wee Nam Kee.   We love their Roasted Chicken to bits.  That's always our choice over their Hainanese chicken, which we first tried at their Ayala Triangle branch. Last Sunday while strolling at Serendra, we saw a Wee Nam Kee restaurant across Conti's.   Thankfully, we were used to falling in line already at their Ayala Triangle branch ... READ MORE

Molten Chocolate Cake from Chili’s

12.18.2011 by Leah //

Oh boy, we had this at Chili's today and it was heavenly good! Chocolate lava cake has always been my favorite and I'm not disappointed with this one.   Topped with vanilla ice cream under a crunchy chocolate shell, Chili's molten chocolate cake (P390.00) is sure to to become your favorite too - with its rich milk chocolate taste and the goodness of vanilla ice cream ...

Tea Cookies, anyone?

12.17.2011 by Leah //

My good friend Denise (we've been friends since college) has discovered the love for cooking and baking.   She's especially good with cookies and I was very happy to learn that she has started selling cookies to friends this Christmas, and has even come up with a cute name for her business:  Kitchentales. Tea cookies are her specialty and these are no ordinary cookies taken ... READ MORE

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

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) ...

Food Post: Pepper Lunch

12.01.2011 by Leah //

I can no longer count the number of times we've been to Pepper Lunch.  Our favorite was the one at Rockwell, and the aroma of the pepper rice meals never fail to lure us, especially after hearing mass at the chapel there. We have tried both the chicken and beef pepper rice meals, but the dish that we have almost always ordered is the chicken and beef combo, which AJ and I ... READ MORE
