Birthday Dinner at Casa Roces Part I

Hubby celebrated his birthday recently and since he heard me raving about Casa Roces, he wanted to mark the special occassion there. And these are what we ordered:

Halo-Halo Shake. A new twist to the halo-halo. Actually, I find this better because the "halo" are mixed already. Tastes good especially the chocolate ice-cream.

Buko Pandan Shake. Tastes ok but when it comes to buko pandan I am partial to Nathaniel's.

Salmon Caviar Dip. We ran out of melba toast so I guess it means we love the dip. Extra order of melba toast please!

Artichoke Salad. Teeny-tiny artichoke bits. Good!

Boracay's Hidden Gem: Mama's Fish House

I've always wanted to dine at Mama's Fish House in Boracay but wasn't able to for some forgotten reasons already. Then the pandemic happened and we're in lockdown or limited travel movement for almost two years. And guess what? One of the nicest thing to happen on our recent trip to Boracay was to discover that Mama's Fish House was located just outside the beach front of our hotel- Microtel by Wyndham Boracay . Talk about serendipity!

RECIPE: TKG's Pan-Grilled Maya-Maya With Calamansi Butter Sauce

I chanced upon some fresh-looking Maya-Maya being sold near my daughter's school today so I bought some. I don't really have a dish in mind when I bought it. Maybe fried, sinigang ... And upon checking the fridge and pantry (no more olive oil), I decided to marinate the fish in calamansi to remove the fishy taste. I pan-grilled the fish being careful not to burn it. Then I minced some garlic, cooked it in butter, added some salt and poured the sauce on top of the fish. And its ready to eat. And oh, I also steamed some cauliflower as a side-dish. Bon appetit!
