Drawing on happy memories, like the chance to go back to Malen's for their unforgettable beef caldereta and discovering this spacious, pretty cafe in Imus, Cavite that serves good coffee (branding is impressive, too).
I know I'm gonna be sorry pero "Live and let die" is my new mantra. Pork Binagoongan from Manam. Kaon ta!
P.S. Ayaw ng face ko ng shrimp in all forms, shapes, & size. #FilipinoFood
The James Beard nominations for 2024 have just been announced, and a few of the folks we've worked with over the years are in the mix. Here's the full list of nominees, via @Eater:
Abi Balingit was James Beard nominated for her Filipino dessert book, "Mayumu." Here's a @Flipboard Storyboard she put together about the rise of Filipino food.
Ahhh, and nothing beats the love and respect I have for this country's #rice farmers than taking 4 #unlirice cup scoops and diligently finishing all of them down to the very last butil or grain I can see and eat! :cirno_thumbs_up:
Salamat kay @pixiecata para sa suhestiyong ito. May oras pa para magbahagi ng sarili ninyong larawan tungkol sa salitang NAMIT o masarap (adjective) o lasa (noun).
P.S. Ano? Pagkaing Filipino naman sa susunod na buwan? 😂😂😂 @takam
I'm not sure which "20 peso lunch" I know of in this university is unhealthier: a 120g pack of Lucky Me pancit canton priced at P22 or a cheeseburger priced at P25.
If I get the pancit canton I can just eat it straight from the pack without boiling, which I always love doing! And obviously it fills my stomach more. But then I lose out in the proteins...
If I get the cheeseburger I get the proteins but will get hungrier faster...
P20 meals are really dead huh? I really miss that 20-peso siomai rice meal...
Filipino cuisine is enjoying an explosion in popularity across the U.S. In this Storyboard, Abi Balingit, author of "Mayumu: Filipino American Desserts Remixed," looks at its history and important figures. Plus, she shares restaurant recommendations, intel on where to find ube products, and recipes for calamansi-fish sauce shortbread and pork belly sinigang.
