Tokyo Bubble Tea has the best Takoyaki I’ve tasted. (Qualifier: I’ve only tasted takoyaki from mall kiosks.) Takoyaki is a popular Japanese snack — a pan-grilled dumpling with diced octopus.

Some like it chocolatey hot
You say “siling labuyo”, I say “grandfather”. Siling labuyo is a red hot chili pepper that’s tiny in size but packs a mean-sized punch.

Kalayaan Ko: Hipon!
Hipon na niluto sa bawang at mantikilya… naku! Iniisip mo palang, parang nakakataas na ng presyon ‘no! Kaya naman bihira lang dapat ang pagkain nito. Mataas na kolesterol at sakit sa batok ang sasalubong sa iyo! Ngunit pwede namang bumigay sa kapricho paminsan-minsan, lalo na kapag may selebrasyon. Sana lang hindi araw-araw ang mga pagdiriwang […] Read more…
