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. While checking the menu, we let the customers behind us order first. Mom Violy asked them for recommendations, and they suggested the Presidential for first timers. Unlike other places, Bebang’s Halo-Halo doesn’t have size options—everything comes in a standard size, making ordering easier. Seniors and PWDs get a discount per order, and you’re given something that lights up when your halo-halo is ready for pickup. Service was quick, so the wait wasn’t long at all. Each order comes in its own green plastic bag with a table...

Easy Three-Cheese Pasta Recipe

Carmina has a best friend she has been asking what I have been eating. I had informed her I have been cooking pasta noodles in the rice cooker.

She was curious how it is possible to cook pasta in your rice cooker. I said, it is easy just add water in the pot where you normally add water and press the bottom by plugging the plug to the socket.

The water begins to blow add enough pasta inside for example our packages is by kilo. I only add half kilo to the pot and set my timer for fifteen minutes.

I stir it with my rice spoon nothing metal, so it doesn't scratch the rice cooker pot.

I don't add any oil, but you can if you want too.

Once in a while I check it and open the lid slightly open prevent the water to overflow. Stir it so it doesn't stick the pot next you know it is already cooked. I use the steamer that comes with the rice cooker to strain the pasta noodles.

Transfer the cooked pasta in a plastic container and prepare the sauce and toppings to your pasta.


In any country there are instant pasta sauce that are premade all you need to add whatever ingredients you want to eat along with your Three-Cheese Pasta. I had added fresh spinach. I had also cook it inside the rice cooker with the same process add water, press the button on rice cooker and wait until the water was boiling to add the spinach. 

How do you know when the spinach is cooked?

The color will change turning green.

Strain the spinach and add it to your cooked pasta noodles that is already mixed into the three-cheese pasta sauce.
