Carmina asked Mom Violy what kind of food she would like to eat for her upcoming birthday. Mom Violy said she was craving for a restaurant that serves steak and lobster. Carmina gave Mom Violy a list of restaurants for her to decide with a link of the websites for her to see which one look something she would like to try. One week before Mom Violy's birthday she made her final choice where she would like to try Mamou . Carmina had picked up Mom Violy at her home before heading to Gateway 2 located in Cubao, Quezon City. Mamou is located ground floor inside Gateway 2. Upon entering the person asked if we had any reservations however, they do except walk as well was seated at the table of our choice. The person had handed us the menu. Beverages Menu Bread and butter were served after we had placed our order. Our appetizer was the Mamou's Bacon Steak. Mom Violy decided to order her lobster tail with rice. Carmina had ordered Beer Battered Fish and Malt Vinegar with choice of pot
Chestnuts come during the month of December in the Philippines often we buy it in Divisoria on a stall in the street where someone is frying in a big pan.
In Tagalog we call it castanas they are sold in a brown paper bag newly roasted sold by 1/4 kilo, 1/2 kilo and 1 kilo depending on what size you would like to purchase.
During our pandemic months my mom's neighbor is selling it for 1 Kilo for PHP 300.00 ($6.00) the taste is soft, sweet and best hot can be cooked in the toaster oven.
To stay fresh leave in your refrigerator when you feel like eating it again. Or you can remove it from the shell and place in a Tupperware with a lid.
To crack it open you can use a nut cracker I just use a crab cracker it does the same purpose.
You may purchase your chestnuts at this person who we had placed our order.
Note:
I am not selling chestnuts just my favorite during the holiday season.
