When the longing for authentic Pinoy dishes strikes in the U.S., Isla Grand stands ready to transport your taste buds back to the Philippines.

Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day. On our first visit to Isla Grand, I was captivated by the décor, noticing many native items that gave the place a fancy yet authentic Filipino feel. They usually have a live band, but unfortunately, there was no entertainment the night we went.

KitKat Dates with Cinnamon Almond Cashew Recipe

Carmina has been seeing people using fruit dates those who want to eat something healthy. 

I know the fact fruit dates is a fiber for people who have a hard time for their bowel movements. 

I grew up with family members who have a hard time feeling constipated. 

What happens to those who are not into eating fruit dates?

I decided to change the recipe due I don't have a double broiler to melt the chocolate. I am trying something different to see if will be successful.

Lots of people love eating chocolates yet some aren't into eating healthy food adding to their lifestyle.

Carmina saw a store that carried KitKat Cocoa with Wafer Spread from Nature's Holistic Online Shopee Philippines. The price of 130 grams 185.00 pesos ($3.03) not including shipping and handling.

I had purchased some Vegan All Natural Cinnamon Almond Cashew to replace peanut butter. 

We know fruit dates are expensive. Lately my family from California had visited us and relatives had sent some fruit dates to Mom Violy. Mom Violy had given Carmina some to try. I had remember wanting to make a recipe we often see in social media.

It is time for me to explore and see if how it would taste to revise the recipe to your taste.
