FOOD FINDS: Coconut Chips, Mushroom Chicharon, Piyaya, and SLERS Chicharon

I find joy whenever I chance upon a weekend market because there are just so many interesting finds. Saw these locally made goodies at the 2-day weekend food market at Rustan's Gateway.


Mushroom Chicharon, P150. Sooo good! It's not oily and if you are health-conscious (not me) or simply into chips, then you have to try this one. There's a bigger pack that cost P300 I think.


Freshly-made Piyaya, P20/pc. It comes in various flavors also- muscovado, chocolate, ube, passion fruit, and another flavor that I can't seem to remember. I got muscovado and chocolate. Ate them for breakfast the following day and super delish! I heated the piyayas in a non-stick pan. It tastes better when its hot/warm because the fillings are melted. Yum!


Toasted Coconut Chips by Radical Organics, P85. Its like banana chips except that its coconut. ;) I gave a pack to my friend and was keeping the other one but hubby found it first and the rest is history. :D


SLER's Chicharon, P50. No need to say that I love chicharon. :)



Other yummy finds that are still hidden in our pantry are the gouda cheese and pastillas, and the bottle of chicken inasal marinade. The Kitchen Goddess can't wait for the next food bazaar finds.

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! 

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!
