Heart2Heart will always support you!
Nice to see you too Spanky Enriquez! A very good friend who saw the potential in Dedet and until now continues to support Pepitas!
The first new thing from Dedet is her new HAYOP na DEGUSTATION! New menu and new dishes!
New menu means new table setting with the help of good friend and interior designer, Tito Villanueva who we missed that evening! I love the Filipiniana touch! PROUD TO BE PINOY!
We wore the sampaguita necklace 🙂
The portions are small and just perfect the way I want it!!
Magic potion by Curly Pepita who demonstrated how to drink it – The magic potion is made of lambanog and dayap poured on cotton candy
Tendon made into chicharon with sinigang na gabi dip!
HIPon with itLOG = HIPLOG! Super yum! You can order this as well – see below for the food to go menu
LOVE THIS TOO!!! We were all raving from beginning to end! That was chicharon salt inside the shell which you put on top of the bone marrow. And that oxtail marmalade is so good!!! Requests from all the diners to bottle it and sell!!
Salad Surprise – Arugula with yogurt cheese with herbs, butter cashew and pop rocks! Very good! I love this salad!
Crab claws ( sipit ) with talangka
Lucky You! You are lucky you are eating this! 🙂 Crystal noodles with herb oil to prepare you for the next dish
This dish is called lambada because according to Dedet “Mapapalambada ka sa sarap and spiciness of the dish!” Sarap talaga! A bit spicy but tolerable. It’s spicy lamb kaldereta
Second and third new things are the two kinds of lechons she launched! It is now wheeled in 🙂
Dedet and I were chatting with each other since we both went to San Francisco this summer and we both had the idea of making a Than Long Lechon!!! I am so happy it came to life!!!
Listen to Dedet herself as she introduces her newest creation 🙂

Dedet told me it took her 8 lechons before she got this perfectly. Than long noodles inside the lechon!! The first noodle lechon! 🙂
Mini lechon platters to put your lechon!
Dedet separated the garlic butter sauce so that you put it on top of the noodles and lechon since the noodles tend to get dry inside the lechon- so you need to put this after
Little Pepita with nice beautiful long hair gave each of us ( and we were 20 ) in the table a massage!!! She does it very well – Thank you Liyora! Someone suggested I pair you with my Little Chef son haha!! 🙂
Pallet cleanser in between lechons – Sampaloc sherbet
Second new lechon – Lechon for the holidays- HAM LECHON DE LECHE!!! Though the degustation comes only with one lechon, you can just add more lechons which will be additional charge 🙂
Chinese ham bits inside the lechon! SARAP!!!
Cholesterol sweeper – We were so happy we were eating oatmeal! Healthy!! Then Dedet told us it was oatmeal with Ghirardelli white chocolate! NO WONDER it was so good!! 🙂
Guinataan Brulee with layers of Carabao flan! YUM!
Fourth new thing- TO GO MENU! You can now order dishes aside from lechon!
Fifth new thing – Hayop Degustation goes to you in your home or venue!!! Dedet can now cater starting next year!!! She said she will start with small groups first. Start reserving with Dedet already for next year!

so happy to see u again Rica! 🙂 i love love love the Thanh Long de Leche!
Wow everything looks very good and exciting… Would it be possible to just walk in or do I need to make reservations?
Nice to meet you all in what can truly be one night to remember….
… like we have to remember that we probably consumed more calories and fat that what we norally would in three days.
But it was sooooooo worth it 😀 !
