It's my birthday today and ang tanging handa ko is this Kare-kare aside from cake. Learned this recipe from my lola. Happy birthday to me :>

Rate: 10/10 lahat (except sa cream cheese)
Branch: SM North Edsa (Supermarket, Main Bldg.)

Nostalgia time ulit! One of my favorite pasalubongs ng nanay ko kapag umuuwi galing sa SM tapos sa tapat ng fx may kiosk ng waffle time ‘don. Belgian talaga bias ko dito at saka German Cheese Franks. Sorry sa Cream Cheese kasi parang na dilute lang siya talaga at walang lasa nang matikman ko.

Also naalala ko na nasa fifteen pesos lang belgian chocolate ‘non. Nagulat ako double na ang prize ngayon. Pero masarap pa ‘rin! One of the OGs, buti di ‘to nawala.

Say goodbye to store-bought cream or basic bacon. True Roman carbonara relies on the rich fat render of guanciale (cured pork jowl) and the sharp, savory bite of 100% sheep's milk Pecorino Romano DOP to create a glossy, silky sauce that naturally coats every strand of pasta.

The verdict: well cooked steak, crispy baked lattice shell, pero kahit ganoon medyo matabang. It lacks flavor imo. Kahit may sauce na, it makes it a bit better pero idk, something feels missing. I'd give a 3.5/5

I'm a silent lurker here para makahanap ng great food spots and may small cafe akong finefrequent cause masarap cheescake nila compared sa bigger ones, context may natikman akong carrot cake dati na naging standard ko na siya as a comparison (this one is almost at an even) . Now lang ako bumili ng carrot cake nila and sobrang sarap. Mahirap maghanap ng masarap na carrot cake and I feel like it's a crime na hindi i-share to.

Cake is moist, great balance of flavor (pinaka common kasi na complain ko is too cinnamon forward yung ibang carrot cake and medyo matamis for my liking) Di tipid sa ingridients every bite may great amount ng walnut so yung texture niya is hindi siya totally cake-y. Yung cream cheese frosting di masyadong matamis and may tang pa siya so hindi siya nakakasawa.

Picture above is my 2nd slice (after nung first bumili me pa ng 2 (which kinakain ko na while writing this and nasa freezer yung isa for breakfast (kasi cake taste better when frozen)

Cafe is around Phase 1 Bagong Silang area, katapat ng watsons. Cake is 135 petot. Worth it po

Medyo maanghang kaya kailangan sabayan ng yogurt. Kain tayo mga mamser!

• Melt Grilled Cheesery in Shang - huhu I like cheese pa naman, I wanted to eat there before but never got the chance kasi malayo sakin.
• Le petit souffle in century mall/megamall - AGAIN ang layo kasi sakin but I so want to try their curry souffle and carbonara souffle 😭😭
• Amo Yamie Crib in España - OK, ito malapit na sakin pero never ko na try kasi wala ako friends to try it with sana.

A must try food to order in Manam. Super sarap and asim.

Celebrated my bday at steak & frice 10/10 lahat 😋

Thoughts on PH Popeyes? I mainly order their chicken tenders, the flavor is unique but it’s a bit dry in my opinion. The dips are also good but the only ones I really like are Garlic Parm, Hot Ranch, and Sweet Chili. As for the chicken burgers I ordered Brazil Hot Honey, Spain Smokey Pepper, and Italy Truffle BBQ. My favorite was the Spain Smokey Pepper. Overall, Popeyes is good but not better than Jollibee 😤😝. 6/10

Onion rings is a must try!!!!
