NEW RESTO ALERT: Tuan Tuan Chinese Brasserie

Been hearing good reviews about Tuan Tuan Chinese Brasserie in SM Megamall but since we don't really frequent that mall, we haven't dined at Tuan Tuan until early this year and not in SM Megamall but at the restaurant's new branch in Powerplant Mall.


Met up with college friends and their kids the day after New Year at Power Plant Mall and we all agreed to have lunch at Tuan Tuan Chinese Brasserie.

The interiors are lovely but the restaurant was quite full when we dined so I wasn't able to take photos except this wall near our table.


Crispy Barbeque Pork Snow Buns, P148. Tastes good but you need to eat it while its warm otherwise, the outer layer tends to harden up if it gets cold. The meat filling is flavorful and has the right amount of spice. I can't wait to try the one with duck next time.


U.S. Angus Steak with Black Pepper Sauce and Mushrooms, P388. My daughter ordered this, anything with "steak" is okay with her. Order is good for sharing although she was able to wipe it all out. The meat is tender and I like the black pepper sauce. Thumbs up!


House Special Trio ((Baked Seafood Wild Mushroom/Pork Chop), P398. Looks unflattering but it is quite delicious. A nice mix of healthy (fish) and indulgent (pork chop) dish. Serving is good for sharing also.


Horlicks Milk, P88. Weren't thinking of ordering drinks since we plan to have dessert at The Dessert Factory but when I saw this on the menu, wow! Horlicks brought back a lot of happy childhood memories. The cup and saucer are also photogenic and Instagramable. After having a cup of this, I am now bent on finding a jar of Horlicks. ;)


Here's the 'Burp Team.' :D

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!
