Food Tastings: Pizza And Pasta 101

Loyal readers of FOOD Magazine recently got treated to a pizza and pasta class by Chef Nancy Edralin and Chef Portia Baluyot, and Project Pie chefs. Food Tastings is a joint presentation of FOOD Magazine and Lifestyle Network.


This is the first leg of series of Food Tastings lined up by FOOD Magazine and Lifestyle Network for 2015. Participant will get to learn more about recipes on health and wellness, power breakfasts, and sweets. 

For the first leg, the guest chefs shared about their expertise about pasta and sauces, while Project Pie (the official venue partner), guided the participants in being creative with their pizza creations. 


Chef Portia shared her useful cooking tips especially in making pasta sauces. She mentioned that adding a bit of white wine in your sauce will make it taste more special. She prepared Chicken & Chorizo Summer Cream Tomato Pasta.


On the other hand, Chef Nancy conducted a hands-on cooking lesson for three lucky participants from the Food Tastings event. They made Conchiglie with Sun-dried Tomato and Goat Cheese, Seafood Pasta with Squid Ink Sauce (Pasta Negra), and Pasta Portobello.






Coincidentally, FOOD Magazine's first issue of the year is all about pizza, too. Grab a copy from your favorite newstand or visit the website: www.abs.cbnstore.com 




*** will be posting the recipes by Chefs Portia and Nancy. Stay tuned :)

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.
