Belly Jaw's Seafoods and More! and Cheatday Frozen Meat & Seafood Supply [ Quarantine Eats Series | Home Food Delivery]

If you have been reading this blog for quite a while now, you would probably have an idea how much I love seafood. I have co-authored a book, a restaurant guide published by Hinge Inquirer way back, and my section of the food was all about seafood. Given a choice between meat and seafood, I always pick seafood in a heartbeat.

Given this, I am excited to write about and share with you a recent discovery, Belly Jaw's Seafood and More and its sister business Cheatday Frozen Meat and Seafood Supply.

This blog post is part of my Quarantine Eats Series - a collection of food I enjoyed via home food delivery services during this time of quarantine. Since like most of you, I am pretty much a hermit these days working from home and not leaving the house unless necessary. As a food blogger, I thrive on home food delivery these days especially when time and energy does not permit me to slave away in my kitchen.

Ca Phe Saigon Vietnamese Restaurant [Quarantine Eats Series | Home Food Delivery]

In continuing to feature great food that I enjoyed during this community quarantine period, I am in a quest to write something about cuisines I love but rarely had the chance to talk about here in my blog. Vietnamese Food takes the spotlight for today's blog. And the nearest Vietnamese Restaurant that offers home food delivery service to where I am right now is Ca Phe Saigon.

Ca Phe Saigon is a Vietnamese Restaurant that offers homemade authentic Vietnamese food and coffee which heirloom recipes were hailed from Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) in Vietnam. Its farm-to-fork concept promises fresh ingredients in each dishes.

Currently, Ca Phe Saigon has branches in Marikina, Antipolo, and Mandaluyong. They are now accepting dine in customers amidst the pandemic, but since this blog review falls under my Quarantine Food Finds Series, we are still focusing on the home food delivery service side of the business.

Star Punjabi Dhaba Indian Restaurant [Quarantine Eats Series | Home Food Delivery]

I was still on a roll in satisfying my Indian Food cravings when I chanced upon the Facebook Page of Star Punjabi Dhaba Indian Restaurant in Cainta while searching Indian restaurants that offers food delivery service in Rizal area where I am currently at. I've checked their virtual menu and decided to get in touch with them to check if they can deliver in my area. I was taking a chance, luckily they told me that they can via Lalamove App. 

I was so thankful thinking that they might have took pity on this girl who was almost begging them to accommodate a delivery request because she was going crazy craving for Indian food. Little did I know, Star Punjabi Dhaba Indian Restaurant was the very same restaurant that went viral recently for giving away free food to literally anyone who's hungry amidst the pandemic. 

In hindsight, I figured it wasn't just pity. The people behind this restaurant have innate kindness in them. The owner who is an Indian nationality I later researched, has a big heart. He fed people for free during the pandemic, and in foreign land at that. Indeed, kindness knows no boundaries.

Chives Bistro & Market Restaurant [Quarantine Eats Series | Home Food Delivery]

Prior to the quarantine, I was able to visit Chives Bistro & Market, one of the many local restaurants in Antipolo City for an early lunch with my parents. I was supposed to blog about my experience last March but I thought it wouldn't make sense because everyone's in quarantine and the possibility of dining out is non-existent.

Then the quarantine loosen its tight grip and local restaurants started offering take out and delivery services. I was able to score a chance to enjoy a hearty lunch at home with Chives sumptuous dishes gracing our table. And although I became two thousand peso poorer, the meal was splendid. I have included Chives in my blog post about the Local Home Food Deliveries I Enjoyed While on Quarantine. 

Then restaurants started opening once again including Chives. So, here we are now.

An Indian Food Feast at Home by Greendot Vegetarian Catering and Food Delivery Service [Quarantine Eats Series | Home Food Delivery]

Beautiful, vibrant, and delicious - these are some of the words on top of my head when thinking about Indian Food. This rich and sophisticatedly spices-laden food is my craving as of late. Good thing here in Metro Manila, we have Greendot Indian Food Catering as one of the trusted Indian food purveyor people can rely on when Indian Food craving hits hard.

Good thing about Greendot Catering is that they do food delivery service, hence you may enjoy an Indian Feast right at the comfort of your own home especially during this time of quarantine. Another good thing, they are vegetarian. And trust me, even if you are not vegetarian like myself, Greendot will still provide you that level of satisfaction only Indian food can provide. Trust me on that. 

India is, up to this day one of the countries I have been wanting to visit if only to experience their beautiful culture and fell more in love with their food. Since our current situation dictates that it might not be happening soon, I am glad that we can still enjoy authentic Indian cuisine, all thanks to food businesses such as Greendot.
