Mom Violy Craving for Filipino Dishes from Seafood Island Restaurant

  Mom Violy wanted to eat crispy pata and pinakbet from Seafood Island Restaurant located in Cubao, Quezon City near the old Shopwise. We had arrived early being the first customers waiting for the restaurant to open. Few minutes later customers began entering the restaurant and we have already placed our order. Mom Violy ordered her crispy pata and pinakbet. Carmina ordered garlic butter shrimp since I don't eat crispy pata. Family member ordered calamari and shrimp fried rice. Everyone had a taste of our meals with leftovers to bring home. Watch my video  Running Errands in the Philippines . NOT SPONSORED.

Sushi Nori in the Philippines

No one eats sushi just rolled up now you can eat it in a bowl or sushi bake that seems to be a trend in the market just not an ordinary way we see other restaurant carry it all rolled up with seaweed. Now for an upgrade version it is in a bowl with different added ingredients. You can now get a sushi bowl called Poke  originally  a Hawaiian cruisine where you can eat raw tuna, salmon and other Japanese sushi you normally eat but can be in a bowl the lazy way of eating no need to roll it up what we see often in a restaurant. You have a choice to eat it with white rice or lettuce to make it into a salad. You are no longer deprived from your food there are a lot of options to eat your sushi. I had ordered the Aburi 2.0 Sushi Bowl which had the following ingredientsTorched Salmon, Unagi, Aburi Sauce, Wakame, Black Ebiko and Nonito Flakes and you have an option to add on other ingredients for an extra charge. You may check the branches available in your location   Sushi Nori ....

Do you have a fixed daily menu in your home?

Sometimes when your cook wants to surrender from their job the only way you can do is make peace by helping out someone who has a terrible time reading and understanding instructions on a recipe. Sometimes there are people who just complain and not say how they feel when they are having a hard time in their work. Sometimes we come across someone who just drop things with fear of anger within them and not even tell you they are so mad and frustrated of the news things happening to them.

We live in a home where there are too many people and sometimes people will just ruin someone else’s job position and sometimes we need to find out and inspect to see if the person they are referring to is really saying what a person has passed on to you. Sometimes in life we need to ma...

Where to buy breakfast burrito in the Philippines?

The food I miss the most in California is my all time breakfast burrito at Mc Donald’s or Carl’s Jr they serve during breakfast in the morning.  It is hard to buy tortilla here in the Philippines especially when you have been locked down from your home and no way can you go out. Even though you try ordering local brands from online they are not the same by its size but you don’t have the proper ingredient to make it since most stores have certain items available in their stores. I just found out they don’t call it breakfast burrito in the Philippines they call it Farmer’s wrap.

Farmer’s wrap has scramble egg, sausage and hash brown the only difference there is no salsa like in any breakfast burrito you normally eat. As we are no condition to complain the Farmer's wrap was able to remove my cravings and made me fill up my cr...
