MyParty. Finds. A Home.

The last time I wrote about authentic street food fishballs, they were just a shot at the moon for me. But now that we’re back home, I just know that its just a matter of time before I could sink my teeth into those yummy, crunchy, saucy, little balls again. I am really glad that [...]

I just wrote about this a while back for the topic of X Marks the Food for another Food Meme. I might as well write about it again, especially since these particular beans have been banned from our home following my husband’s strict no-beans diet. I can’t tell you how much I miss it! Sauteed [...]

Sprinkles are to me what car accessories are to my husband. I just go ga-ga over them! And these sprinkles above, aren’t they the cutest? They were on the chocolate glazed donuts from Dunkin Donuts last Valentine’s Day. My husband got half a dozen of them for me and for my daughter. It was his [...]

There was a time when Zagu and Orbitz dominated the beverage scene in Manila. I was one of the many who stood in line, just to satisfy a craving for mocha shake with sago. Years later, the bubble tea craze fizzled out because some people let it leak that the powders that the bubble tea [...]

For this week’s LaPiS, my entry is this: Laing. Laing (or Ginataang Gabi) is made from the leaves of the gabi (taro) plant sauteed with some gata (coconut cream) and hot peppers. The last time I had a taste of Laing was about two years ago so you can just imagine how excited I was [...]

Actually, I could have submitted this entry for last week’s topic, too. This is our neighborhood pizza place. Definitely, its not your average joe’s pizza place. The servers don’t wear goofy fast food uniforms and, to a certain extent, are not as “clean cut” as you would expect employees of pizza places would be – [...]

Almost, but not quite. We just spent the whole morning walking along the beach, hoping we were donned in comfy Naot sandals, when we chanced upon this beachside bbq place at Marco Island in Florida. I had to do a second look because I couldn’t believe a restaurant (or its owner, at least) would actually [...]

This will be the second time I’ll be featuring a cantaloupe for LaPiS. I first featured it for the Fruit theme but, I can’t resist featuring it again for this week’s theme which is succulent. Whenever I hear the word succulent, I think of fresh, ripe, fruits – ones where the juices swish in your [...]

In the South of the United States, barbecues are a staple. There are different kinds of barbecues, of course, depending on where in the South you are – there’s North and South Carolinan, Texan, Memphis, Kansas City, Alabama, Kentucky, and Georgian – the difference is all in the sauce. However, and no matter the sauce, [...]
