Intercon's Prince Albert Rotisserie is one of the good ol' places to get the five-star steak experience in Manila. This is notwithstanding the fact that top hotels seem to be the favorite gathering ground of anyone who has a serious ax to grind against the government these days... just think about the Oakwood caper and more recently, the Manila Pen siege. What are the chances that an armored personal carrier is going to ram through the door as you cut on that wonderful piece of prime rib? Probably nil.It's just that people like Trillanes want to have their steak and ... Continue Reading...
A ‘lechon’ pizza…. because pork fat rules!
Pizza de Lechon, originally uploaded by annalyn. If you're foreign to the country and you don't know how Pinoys have reinvented the classic Italian pizza, a visit to popular fastfood chain Greenwich is in order. Greenwich has pretty much captured the Pinoy tastebuds when it comes to interpreting Italian classics this side of Venezia .. those snooty Italians may cringe and cower, but this is the Philippines - home of the garlic rice, 'dirty ice cream,' bananacue, grilled chicken *ass, and that sweet-tasting Jollibee spaghetti.. hetcetera hetceteroo. We ... Continue Reading...
John and Yoko, Greenbelt 5
John and Yoko. John and Yoko in the still to be fully opened Greenbelt 5 is my favorite restaurant at the moment. I like it because service is fast and efficient. Most of all, menu prices are reasonable (average of P250 to P500 per head), considering the hip cosmopolitan ambiance. I just hope they stay this way even when the crowds come pouring in, as we think it would.... John and Yoko is the latest restaurant venture of movie actor Marvin Agustin who also owns Sumo Sam, Cafe Ten Titas in Gateway and Smairu at the Food Choices of TriNoMa. Met him ...

Tio Pepe’s Karinderia: Jollibee brings Pinoy home cooking to the masses
As a foodie, there's something I have to confess: I love carinderia food! At the end of the day, when you've tasted all the fancy dishes and gourmet meals, all you really want to do is grab a bite of something closer to home - not fusion, not neo-Asian, not Euro-Continental EK-EK but just something similar to what our mama/manang used to make. Carinderia food may be something we take for granted as we encounter it daily, but it is representative of our regional flavors and is therefore something we can show to tourists or visitors who are out to discover more of ...

Because pancit is my favorite dish…
Chow Mein. It is my first time to join Fampics, the monthly photo round-up of Pinoymomsnetwork. November's theme focuses on anything "plated" and this naturally necessitated a mad rush to my Flickr photo library where I have lots and lots of food pictured in bowls, saucers and of course plates! My Flickr pool is going Pro for the second straight year now, thanks to the kind donation of this philanthropist blogger who'd rather remain anonymous. You rock man! :P ... Continue Reading...
