New Dishes at Paradise Dynasty

Paradise Dynasty is synonymous with flavored Xiao Long Baos but they have equally dishes on the menu such as my favorite Spicy Szechuan Crispy Chicken and La Mian with Scallion. And since they opened up their very first branch in S Maison Conrad, the restaurant has continuously surprising its diners with new dishes, and new branches.

The new dishes has a more healthier appeal in my opinion. Let me introduce them:

OMG! Paradise Dynasty has Fried Duck on their menu now. I love fried duck as compared to the roast version. These one though will be sliced in front of you and the meat will be placed on steamed cua paos. Julienned cucumbers and scallions will be added as well as the sweet sauce. You can opt to eat the duck as it is instead of having it with the cua pao.

Another new dish is the Grouper with Pine Nuts and Fruits. This is like sweet & sour fish except that it has a more fresh flavors on it. Of course, having fresh fish gives it added flavors.

The Grilled Grouper with Tofu Mapo is an interesting fusion of Tofu Mapo and Steamed Grouper. I like its rich salty taste and the silky tofu bits is just perfect. This dish will make you crave for more rice though.

Shanghai Style Braised Pork Belly & Bokchoy may be the last one on the new menu list but it is delicious nonetheless. I love that the pork belly has a melt-in-your-mouth texture. The bokchoy lends its precious leaves to make it less rich.

Paradise Dynasty will be opening another branch in SM Aura soon. Stay tuned.

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!
