Breakfast & Fluff!

What's fluffy, sweet, and a good breakfast pastry?

Mamon! 

Mamon is a fluffy and light bread, with caramelized or melted sugar and sometimes cheese on top. And one of the best mamon's I have tasted is Red Ribbon's Mamon. 

Very good, very light and fluffy, and very affordable, for only 25php a piece. 

I was tempted to have breakfast when I saw that we have a pack of these yummy mamon at home. HAHA. 

Triple Treat!

Some say its a triple threat, but I say that is is a triple TREAT. 

Selecta's new 3 in 1 flavors in Super Thick is the best ice cream tub for a banana split. Creamy and thick (yes, it's true) Strawberry, Chocolate, and Vanilla ice cream all in one tub. 

What I do is get a scoop for each flavor and mix it until all the flavors are blended together. HAHA. Some people may think that's gross or weird, but that's how I want it. Lol. 

Aaaand its even better when you put ripe bananas or ripe mangoes!

I seriously am gonna get fatter with this. HAHA. 


Jappy Veggies!

Veggie time!

Here we are once more at Rai Rai Ken. We wanted to take a break from eating red meat, so the fam ordered a plate of Yasai Itame. 

Yasai Itame is a mix of sauteed alfalfa sprouts, cabbage, carrots, and sweet pork. What I love about this is that even after the saute, the veggies still remained crispy and fresh. Nothing is worse than having soggy and/or dry vegetables for dinner. 

So, if you're looking for a good veggie plate, (which you can also trick your kids into eating HAHA), come grab a plate of Yasai Itame at Rai Rai Ken. 


Everyday, Okay!

"Yakult Everyday, Everyday Okay!"

I can't help but remember this tag line whenever I see or drink Yakult. 

Lemme tell you a secret, I'm lactose intolerant. Meaning, too much milk or dairy products will get my stomach really really upset. To the point where I would just curl up in a ball and later on, be rushed into the hospital. 

The only milk I drink these days has been Yakult. Rich in live lacto basilus to help with digestion. And today is no different. M had brought me one cold bottle of Yakult and I drank before attacking the Overtime Report at the office. 

Good drink. ;)


Time for Breakfast at Night!

"It feels like the perfect night, for breakfast at midnight."

This line on TSwift's new single, 22, has been playing over and over again in my playlist and in my mind for the last week. Lol. 

Tonight, M and I had a short date night over at Pancake House. While he chose to have the pancakes, I wanted to go more Western with a classic French Toast. Two slices of fluffy and sweet French toast garnished with confectioner's sugar with a side of whipped cream and maple syrup. 

A tad bit too sweet for me, but still a good breakfast at night dish.

It's that Pink Drink.

Pink drinks are usually associated with alcoholic drinks. 

Buuuut, this here is an exemption. Sun Tropics' Guava juice may be one of the few pink drinks that is healthy and good for the body. With my new anti-softdrinks revolution, I love how the fam is utilizing fruit and natural drinks instead. 

Who cares if its pink right? As long as it's good and keeps the body fit. :)


So, What's the Flan?

Another childhood favorite. 

I grew up eating and loving Leche Flan as a dessert, snack, and even sometimes a meal. HAHA. A good leche flan would always make me feel better. 

And tonight, I thank my mother for bringing home a box of Goldilocks' infamous Leche Flan. Out of all the flans that I have tasted in my entire 20 years (yes, I am only 20 years old lol), Goldilocks definitely makes one of the best flans. Ever. 

Super creamy, not overwhelmingly sweet, and perfectly melts in your mouth. 

Love. :)

PS: What remains of the said flan in less than an hour. Lol.
