A couple of weeks before the Lent, I was able to experience the wonder of a foodie heaven that is Mercato Centrale. Despite the scorching heat of the sun that day, the countless number of food from different merchants that lies before me serves as an oasis of hope that it is going to be one hardcore food tripping. Nothing beats the feeling of feasting on good food and being acquainted with people who have as much love and respect for food like you do. I promised myself that I would definitely go back to Mercato Centrale and experience Midnight Mercato as well.
Mercato CentraleAlthough it has always been a practice to avoid meat during Lenten Season, the recent holy week was indeed a sacrifice for me. I was diagnosed with a rare kind of allergy which obliges me to forgo eating some food that I would normally take during Lent. I was rather forced to take fasting seriously because of my allergy and I have never felt so deprived of food until that time. During those time, I cannot help but remember all the good food I have enjoyed at Mercato.
Rodrigo's Roast
Bagwang of ManilaQ
Grilled Seafood and Meats by Oysters Seafood Grill
Lasagna of Mad About Spuds by Juana's Kitchen
Cheezy Potato of Mad About Spuds by Juana's Kitchen
Desserts by Madonna's CuisineNow, after days of medication and rest, the allergy somehow subside and I was advised that I can already go back enjoying the food I love without the fear of being hospitalized again. Fasting days are over as well. I am thankful of the favorable medical result and another thing that I am thankful for is the Mercato Favorites Weekend Treat that will happen on April 30 and May 1, 2011. This special weekend will happen just in time for me to pick up my pacing of being a foodie that I am.
It is not as if the idea of food tripping isn’t exciting enough, but the great deals and discounts that Mercato Central Merchants have for foodies are all amazingly irresistible. This weekend is going to be really special.
