Malolos Goodies


After making rounds of the old churches and museums in Malolos, the next on my agenda was this hugely popular bakeshop called-- Barasoain Bakeshop. You really can't miss this store which was just in front of Barasoain church because the color scheme doesn't blend well with the old church and old house nearby. But I love pink and it does stand out among the browns and grays.






Inipit. Custard creme sandwich between sugared chiffon. Thus the name "inipit." Years ago when hubby was still BF, he used to bring me some inipit whenever he goes home to his province- Bulacan. So now that we are married, I guess I had my fill of inipits before so its now totally out of my list.




Special Ensaimada. Special because it has salted eggs. This is so, so good! And so, so BIG!






Cheese Bread. Actually, I forgot what they call this puto-like or maybe cake-like goodie. Didn't leave a lasting impression.
Handuraw

According to my hubby's nephew who lives in Cebu, this restaurant is one of his fave hang-out place. And I can see why! Aside from being a restaurant, there's also a space where one can sip coffee or tea while surfing the internet. Some part of the restaurant are also reserved for artists if I'm not mistaken.

Cheese Triangles

Watermelon Seeds?

I haven't tasted butong pakwan for a long time (years na!) and upon seeing it being sold in a pasalubong store in Bulacan, I bought a small supot (P35). Of course na-excite si Isabel since fave nya ang watermelon. She find it also easy to crack open the seeds.

But thinking out loud, is it really watermelon seeds? Looks suspiciously different to me if you compare the seeds of a 'real' watermelon and the butong pakwan being sold. So what kind of a seed is it?

Yoh-Gurt Froz

We always see this whenever we go to Robinsons Midtown but didn't have the chance to try it until only recently. We just ordered a regular cup for Isabel- watermelon with candy sprinkles. Not bad for P55 but i'd rather buy a cone/cup of FIC ice-cream. I guess i'm not keen on the yogurt taste.
Anita's Bakeshop


This is one of the most popular bakeshop in Cebu and is also conveniently located in Osmena Circle.



Torta. Good! But heavy on the tummy.



Cheese Bread. Daughter requested this. Yum!
 


Giant Ulang






These are freshwater shrimps or ulang bought in a market in Plaridel, Bulacan. It costs P120/kilo. These are sometimes available in Farmers Market and in Salcedo Market.




Cooked in garlic and butter sauce. All you need to do is to squeeze some calamansi or lime to make it more flavorful- yum!
