Wee Nam Kee

Because we don't often go to Makati, it took us more than a year before we can have a bite of Wee Nam Kee's chicken that some friends have been raving about. The branch where we visited was in Promenade although there's also another one in Shangri-La Plaza's East Wing.


Daughter and I decided to avoid the lunch crowd by arriving around 2pm. We literally had the place to ourselves for about 10 minutes before two other groups arrive. I love the clean and uncluttered interiors.


Servers were not that accommodating, maybe because they want to have siesta since its 2pm. :P


We were given soup but there's not much to rave about it. Also, soup doesn't taste good if its not hot or warm. Tsk tsk


Soy Chicken. Maybe I got disappointed with the soup and the server because it didn't taste memorable.


Another so-so dish. Even the pork is unrecognizable because its drowning in sweet & sour sauce.


Maybe I'll give it another try after a year or maybe visit another branch. ;)

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!
