Congratulations Marie Claire Moore!  Thank you Tina Vitas for inviting me to the book launch!  A book for Filipinas living abroad and for any woman who wants to learn some tips on how to juggle motherhood with career and yet be successful 🙂  I am sure many of us can benefit from reading this book

Bagnet

By | Proud to be Pinoy!, Yummy! | No Comments

One of my best buys in the bazaar of Chef Reggie Aspiras!!  I went back to the booth like three times and could not resist to buy it and try it!  

It’s so good and so easy to cook!!!  Just fry and cut!

Bellychon

By | Foodie, Pork, Proud to be Pinoy! | One Comment

Lechon! Bagnet! Pork! Porchetta! is the in thing now!! It’s everywhere in all forms! 🙂  A little bird whispered to me that there is this place in Greenbelt that has really good porchetta!  So I asked James to accompany me to try it out!  It is in Greenbelt 1 beside Mercury Drug and Binalot.  It has street front location. A simple no frills place but decent and clean

From outside the window, you can see them cutting up the porchetta

You can dine in and order a meal or you can order the porchetta by the kilo

That whole piece will be around 4 to 6 kilos – so it will cost maybe P 2,500 to P 3,000 for that whole roll without bones!  So you can buy that roll and have it for your dinner or party.  And it’s Cebu lechon that is so tasty and yummy!  Unlike other places I hear they have many kinds of fillings and flavors – this one has only regular and spicy

This is the dine in menu.  We wanted to try the sisig but they did not have it

The Bellychon meal comes with a soup which tasted like sinigang – sarap 🙂

We wanted to try it first so we ordered the Bellychon meal for P 120.00. WOW! SARAP!

Ho Ho Holiday Packages from Kalikhasan

By | Christmas, Green, Proud to be Pinoy! | No Comments

Heart2Heart is happy to meet another young entrepreneur, Malou de Joya, who makes eco friendly products!  Malou told me that she started by supplying hotels and resorts with soaps and other toiletries for their resorts.  Now, she has her own line which I love because it is very Filipino!

I got to try most of the products and I also received a gift from my friend Michele – the Itch Away holiday pack which is so useful!
