YedyLicious for CCA Manila at Philippine Daily Inquirer

Before this day ends, I hope you could grab yourself a copy of today’s issue of Philippine Daily Inquirer.  My write up for Central For Culinary Arts, Manila in line with their 15th years in the culinary school industry can be found at the lifestyle section of the broadsheet, page c3. 

Congratulations CCA, Manila! Flame on!

Staycation at Pan Pacific Manila Hotel

Couple of months ago, Pan Pacific Manila, the first and finest butler hotel in the country launched their newly renovated rooms to further enhance the best five star hotel experiences that they can offer to their guests.  A week after my birthday, I was able to experience staying at one of Pan Pacific’s renovated rooms with my sister.

I am not going to bombard you with too many information and photos of my wonderful experience at Pan Pacific Manila so this is going to be series of posts that I’ll be dishing out in the coming days. 

Jollibee Chicken and Mushroom Pasta

While I’ve always been a fan of Jollibee Spaghetti, their new offering Jollibee Chicken and Mushroom Pasta just couldn’t quite satisfy my palate. I am not sure if it has something to do with my expectation that whenever I eat pasta from Jollibee, the child in me will be awaken with its sweet Pinoy taste, or I just find this new creation by Jollibee plain boring.

It is not that bad since some of my friends regard it as a welcome change from the usual sweet style spaghetti, but I find it too peppery for my taste.  Instead of the usual ground beef, they use chicken, ( oh yes kiddos, no strips nor chunks of chicken here) and then mushroom as a substitute for the well-loved hot dogs and sweet ham which can be found from the old time favorite Jollibee Spaghetti.
