Enjoying Life’s Little Pleasures at Magnum Manila

11.15.2014 by Leah //

Would you believe that AJ and I visited Magnum Cafe 3x last month?  Parang sabik lang sa ice cream, ano?  Hehe! The first time we were there, we tried not only their celebrated dessert menu but their savory dishes as well.  I felt like being transported to one of the scenes in Chocolat, where Vianne prepared a full course menu for Armande's birthday, and there ...

Cooking with Terra Cota Garlic Roaster

03.15.2014 by Leah //

I LOVE garlic.  That's why adobo and salpicao are two (2) of my favorite dishes - the more garlic are put in them, the more delicious they become. So when Ms. Ellen (of The Pseudoshrink) asked if I wanted buy a Terra Cota Garlic Roaster that she is selling, I said yes right away.  I have always wanted to try at home the Aglio e Olio Spaghetti recipe that I order at Italian ...

Food Post: Frankie’s New York Buffalo Wings

09.21.2013 by Leah //

I am so used to hearing this from my officemates: "You're having chicken again for lunch?". Yes, I really am a chicken person.  And my favorite part is, of course, the wings!  The reason is simple: it has the most balat (skin) of the chicken which I really love.  I also find it to be the most flavorful part of a chicken, maybe cause the meat is not thick, allowing the spices ...

The 3-Step Tomato Basil Pasta

07.18.2013 by Leah //

This is probably the easiest pasta dish I've made so far.   I've read a  lot of  recipes for Tomato Basil Pasta but this is the only one that appealed to me because aside from using ingredients that are readily available in the grocery or your kitchen's pantry, there are only 3 steps to follow to make it!  And what's more, you'll be amazed at how close the taste of this pasta ...

We were able to try the famous souffle pancakes an We were able to try the famous souffle pancakes and french toast of @grampancakesph without going out - thanks to @grabfoodph ! I used to love taking pics of food for #foodstagram but now that everything's in takeout boxes, nakakatamad mag-food styling hehe! Anyway, whether it's in fancy plate or takeout box - the food should still taste good. And this one definitely did not disappoint! The souffle pancakes were oh so good, and despite traveling in a box were really soft up to the last bite. Yumyum! #doitforthegram

Our first summit event under the new normal. It wa Our first summit event under the new normal. It was so nice to finally see everyone face to face and have uninterrupted discussions that lasted past 8pm! I get to enjoy free coffee the whole day too. ☕️☕️☕️ Two things I find cute though: everyone now carries a disinfectant spray or alcohol (in every shape and brand), and wears a lanyard for their face mask 😄  #NCRFSDSummit
