Ngo-Hiong

This food is not for the faint-hearted. Just kidding! Hehe.

I'm not even sure if this is available here in Manila. It was my friend's mom who introduced me to this weird-tasting lumpia look-a-like food. Its either you love this food or you hate it. Luckily, I belong to the love-it group. It's made from labong which is one gets from the trunk of a coconut tree, then added with tons of weird tasting spices and maybe some meat. I was told that the ones being sold in Guadalupe, Cebu was the best in that area. And now, I'm smitten!




I've also tried the ngo-hiong being sold by CNT but it tasted different from the ones made by the seller in Guadalupe.

NEW RESTO ALERT: Saigosan in Uptown Mall

Konnichiwa Saigosan! A new and funky izakaya recently opened at Uptown Mall headed by Chef Chris Oronce. This izakaya not only serves delectable dishes but is also a visual-feast. Inspired by animes, mangas, and JPop culture, Saigosan even has a train wherein you can hop from Kyoto to Osaka without a JR Pass! 

Salcedo Market x Legaspi Market Tour

We haven't visited the weekend markets for years so I was giddy with excitement because I was able to visit both Salcedo and Legaspi markets this month, thanks to our Dusit Thani Manila staycation . To differentiate the two, Salcedo market  is held every Saturday at the Jaime Velasquez Park in Salcedo Village Makati while Legaspi market is held every Sunday at the Corinthian Carpark in Legaspi Village Makati. Since we were coming from Dusit Thani Manila, it was quite a long walk but it was early in the morning (around 8AM) and even Ayala and Makati Avenues were still without cars. Wow! 

NEW RESTO ALERT: Hà Nội Phố (Ha Noi Pho)

Makati has been a go-to place for my family and I to grab a meal or sometimes just to have a cup of coffee. Though, really, it’s mostly just us visiting our favorite spots. Recently, my mom went out of town so it was just my dad and I who went out for dinner.
