Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side. I didn’t expect the turkey to be just one piece, and the bread was toasted so hard that it removed one layer of the sandwich. Since ...

Do you miss the food your parents cook for you when you we're young?


Every now and then we miss what our parents are cooking for us when we’re young as growing up and when we have parents who are no longer living next to us we tend to look for the taste.

Sometimes we can find the same taste from a different person how they cook their food or we have family members who we’re taught by our parents the way the use to cook for us when we’re young.

As we get older we learn new things and we adapt our learning skills to teach those next to us to bring it to the next generation when we’re not with them as we get older.

If you have parents still alive and living with you it is best to get their recipes from them and learn from based their own experiences so you too can learn and cook the way your parents use to cook.

So often when we are younger and still growing up we don't want to learn how to cook or we find cooking is not our thing but when your parents are no longer living next to you later you will regret that you should of have learned the way your parents use to cook.

Cooking comes from being patience as well being inspired with passion to learn techniques from the expert without their knowledge you will not learn anything from them.

This is why every day I would ask Manang V, my mom and anyone who knows how to cook for their recipes everyone has their own specialty in cooking in what they cook best.

Everyone has their own experience in cooking and they can recommend or share their own secret ingredients as we learn their passion in cooking we get to learn based on how they learned to cook as well we get recognized by other people to appreciate the food you love to cook for not for yourself as well for others.

People say in order for your food to taste the way it is by being passionate to make your food taste the way it is suppose to be because no passion your food will become tasteless no matter if it looks good by appearances by taste it is lacking an ingredient.
