My Craving Satisfaction

RAMADAN 2020: Locked down.   Looking to heavens.   Fiber up!          Ramadan is just around the corner for our Muslim community.   This year’s Ramadan will start tomorrow, 23rd of April 2020, and will end after a month.   I would like to take this opportunity to extend my warmest greetings to all the Muslims as we observe the Holy Month of Ramadan. It is a great opportunity for all of us to purify our minds, body, heart and soul by fasting and praying-- two of the five pillars of Islam (the other three being faith, charity, and the pilgrimage to Mecca) . It is also a time to welcome peace, prosperity and happiness all around the world.              One important preparation is the quality of suhoor food. Suhoor is the pre-dawn meal that one eats, before fasting for the day.   Suhoor food must be high in fiber and protein to provide long-lasting energy through...

Have you ever felt wearing make-up doesn't suit you well? Have you ever felt that people might judge you just because of your looks? Actually, I am usually down thinking that I'm not beautiful and I am not that good enough. Some people say wearing make-up and fixing your hair will boost your self-esteem, well maybe? But I am a person who's too lazy to wear make-up or even brush my hair. I am already enough just by putting a nude matte lipstick on and just letting my hair dry naturally. And honestly, I actually don't feel worthy of looking good. The idea that wearing makeup everyday and always putting an effort to fix your hair is what makes you look beautiful are good for me. But if you're not into it or if you're too lazy to put a make-up on your face, or you're also too lazy to curl or straighten your hair everyday, it is also okay. You just need to find another solution on how you would feel good about yourself. Just recently, I was invited ...

Have you ever wondered how it feels like dining in a super cozy and relaxing place? You know? Whether it's a place where you want to go on a date with your partner or have a chitchat bonding with your best friend. Or even have a memorable time where you can play card games or board games with the whole barkada. Just recently, I've found a new place where you can chill and eat at the same time.  Just by entering the door of this restaurant, you can instantly feel how talented and genius the owner of this restaurant was.  From the outdoor displays, the ceiling, and ofcourse the wall paintings.  All of these things inside the restaurant seems so interesting in the eye of every customer. Of couse, there are so many foods to choose from.  They have pastas, fish and chips, soups, desserts, and ofcourse their very own specialty which is... the T-Bone Steak  with Mashed Potato. It was very juicy, and it has full of t...

Looking for a place to eat and feel relaxed at the same time? I had the chance to dine here at HEIRLOOMS KITCHEN this month. The very first thing that came out to my mind just by entering the restaurant is that the place was very homey, relaxing, and welcoming.  (Credits to the owner of this photo) The warm feeling of the place was really good and you can’t feel the heat outside the restaurant. You will instantly feel right at home and at ease just by entering the place. First things first, I asked for the menu and the only problem I encountered upon dining at this place is that you will have a hard time choosing what to order. Everything in their menu sounded awesome and appetizing!!! Here are the few dishes that I ordered: 1. SOUP OF THE DAY Can you guess what was their soup of the day that I had? Luckily, it was my favorite PUMPKIN SOUP! Well honestly, I was really hoping to get a pumpkin soup during my first try at Heirloom...

Looking for a healthy but delicious and affordable meals around the metro? (credits to the owner for this picture) Earlier this year, I was invited to dine-in at BROWN'S GOURMET Restaurant located at Katipunan, Quezon City. First thing that I ordered was their Caramelized Pear + Lemon and Basil dressing. To tell you honestly, I am not really a big fan of these kind of foods but I tried to taste the Salad and it was really good. If you're into eating healthy foods, then this is best nutritious salad for you! The next thing that I ordered was the Crispy Adobo Flakes Pasta with Roasted Chiken. Yes, you read it right guys! The pasta is very unique. It's actually my first time encountering a pasta with a twist of crispy adobo flakes. The roasted chicken is served with a vinegar dipping sauce on the side which I think is not really important since the flavor of the chicken was already tasty. The pasta sauce was a little bit creamy bu...
