Inside A Chef’s Life

By Heart2Heart | Hot Off the Press, Recipes | 2 Comments

Chef Javs ( my son ), always tells me about Chef Bruce because he watches his cooking show on TV. So I was ecstatic when I found out that Chef Bruce has a cookbook! A perfect recipe book that Javier will love! I had the pleasure of meeting Chef Bruce at the launch of his cookbook at his restaurant Chef’s Table

Previous entry: Simply Complex at Chef’s Table August 22, 2011

He even demonstrated 3 recipes for us and we even got to try them for lunch

Prawn Aligui Wrapped in Banana Leaves

Stuffed Chicken Leg Adobo with Crispy Pork Flakes

Oh my gosh! Nora Daza!!! Her cookbook was the first cookbook I ever used when I was a kid. Maybe around 10 years old I was baking and cooking and my favorite was her Lenguas de Gato in her first ever cookbook which I still have til now.

Bulalo and Tawilis

By Heart2Heart | Foodie | One Comment

I don’t mind going to Batangas for 2 1/2 hours because we can always break the trip and have a good excuse to stop by Tagaytay 🙂 We looked for the restaurant which we heard about from Gaita and so glad we found it!

This is the main counter where you can also order and they have a few dining tables here

It’s outdoor dining 🙂 by the parking lot

in a bahay kubo!

With singers going around and will eventually serenade you in your kubo

Our bahay kubo

My dates 🙂 who are so game and adventurous too

They bring you all your utensils in a pot with hot water and the pitcher is covered since they walk from the kitchen to the outdoor bahay kubo

Even the catsup bottle is covered 🙂

Tapsilog! YUMMY!!

Fresh buko juice!! YUMMY!

And our main dishes! All covered as it arrives! Though once the food is opened, there are flies hovering the area so just watch out for them still flying around. I should have sprayed my insect spray to avoid them from coming near, but I was so hungry and just concentrated on eating 🙂

CRISPY PATA!!!!

BULALO!!!!

TAWILIS!!!

And for dessert, the banana hanging on the bahay kubo!!! You can eat as much as you like! 🙂 There were other desserts but we were so full already and didn’t even finish our food

Ohhh..how cute!!!

The restrooms 🙂

Our bill for all of that 🙂

Modes of Transportation

By Heart2Heart | Photography, Travel | No Comments

When I am on a road trip beside the driver’s seat, I tend to notice a lot more things on the road 🙂 On the way and back to Pico De Loro, I specifically noticed different ways on how people transport themselves! Quite interesting how many kinds I saw in just one trip

Of course the beautiful scenery is something you can’t get in the city and I just love it!

Oops!! This guy looks familiar!

It’s David Almendral! Going uphill take note! 🙂

This guy was in front of us and didn’t even move! 🙂 we had to use the other lane to overtake. Transporting via carabao! 🙂

Oh my gosh! A jeep with people even on the roof and on the sides!

And they were waving at me! haha!!

Of course there is always walking

by motorcycle

by threes?

More motorcycles but in a big group one after the other -A Sunday ride 🙂

By tricycle

By bicycle

And wow, this truck had like 30 people in the back, i was not able to take it as we were both moving and it was quite fast

Pico de Loro, Hamilo Coast

By Heart2Heart | Travel | One Comment

Hamilo Coast consists of 13 coves which is owned by SM Investment Corp

Pico De Loro is only one of the coves and the first that they have developed

A 2 1/2 hour drive from Manila

Or you can arrive by helicopter 🙂

Run by Senior Vice President, Rona Torres- Tan, Marketing Consultant, Rea Gomez-Harrow and AVP of Customer Service, Marga Reyes. A great team! And James and I really noticed the friendly staff and great customer service.

Come now while it is relatively new and not so many people know about it yet so you can have the beach all to yourself 🙂

Rea best described it as Nasugbu’s BEST KEPT SECRET!

They have developed 8 condominium towers and have sold around 80% of the units already. You need to be a unit owner or a member of the club to be able to come inside Pico De Loro and use the facilities

There is the country club

And the Beach Club by the beach 🙂

Thanks to Carla Hernandez Dy Liaco for some of the photos
