Carmina says Bebang’s halo-halo is summer in a spoon — but is it the real deal or just pretty colors in a cup?

Since last year, Mom Violy and Carmina had been wanting to try the much-talked-about  Bebang's Halo-Halo , but even when we passed by, the timing was never right. Mom Violy kept saying she’d wait until a branch opened closer to us. Then Becky told Carmina there was one along her commute route to work. The best part was that the Tomas Morato branch in Quezon City had just opened. When we arrived at CTTM Square , we found plenty of restaurants on the second floor.

Filipino Spaghetti Recipe Living Abroad

I am sharing with you my home made recipes. Filipino Style Spaghetti: I was told by a close friend that there is certain tomato sauce that taste different from the Philippines and if you buy the same brand in the States. For instance in the Philippines I usually use Del Monte Original Tomato Sauce. I was told the Del Monte Tomato Sauce is sour rather than sweet. So, I was able to try the a different brand while I was vi siting my home town and found you can use S&W Tomato Sauce which can be brought at Costco. I was able to use 1 and a half cans. Only problem they carry it in a large size. So, you will have some left overs. Of course you can use th...
