5th FAVE EATS: Sopas ni Ate Elvie

Another Pinoy food merienda is what will I give you guys for tonight. Tamang-tama lang sa panahon natin ngayon (kung naririnig niyo lang ang lakas ng ulan dito sa San Jose) itong featured Fave Eats ko. At dahil maulan sa mga nakakaraang araw, I will give you guys a very Pinoy na Pinoy merienda. O eto na mainit-init pa. Please give a warm round of applause for Ate Elvie's SOPAS! Woohoo. . .

My first ever try of her sopas, last July 25, 2012

RUN Post # 1: Training for Adidas KOTR '12, 11 days left

11 days before Adidas KOTR 2012, and I can't stop my feet from training. Running myself for approximately 10 kilometers once every other day until Sept 30 is my program for my 16.8K run. 

This will be my comeback run since last year's Unilab Run United 3 (I was ranked 553rd place out of 2191 runners) and I'm not including the Outbreak Manila in Nuvali coz it was a damn full-packed Zombie hurdles and you just fucking need to think wisely (maging LAON ka dapat) on how to outrun those shit Zombies. But really, I do enjoy that run especially when I outrun those nasty Zombies for my life, este for the medal. (buti wala ako sakit sa puso)

 Just a proof for you guys to believe me that I really outrun the Zombies, and can you spot that red flag on my right (on your left of course)? That's my one last life to get that Survivor Medal. Get lost zombies. 

3rd FAVE EATS: Karioka Balls

Do you guys missed me? Haha. (asa naman ako) Sorry for missing me last weekend, ha! Medyo naging busy lang ako with my pinsans hanging out. (still hoping na na-miss niyo nga ako) Oh well, papel, "Iba talaga pag Bea-John Lloyd eh, no?" - Cholo Francisco 

Iba ung tirada nang kilig sa love team nilang dalawa. Parang paputok, UST Fireworks. 

Karioka (Coconut Rice Balls with Brown Sugar Coating)

This one is my most recent favorite merienda. But actually I already tasted it before, however ngayon ko lang na-realize na masarap pala siya. And of course pag masarap ang isang pagkain, tiyak walang kawala yan sa'kin. 

 3 yummy Karioka Balls.

2nd FAVE EATS: Kamoteng Nilubyan with Bukayo

One of the best food and my most favorite to eat, Pinoy Meriendas. These are my comfort foods. Biko, palabok, ispageti, lomi, halo-halo, mais con yelo, banana sweet, paradusdos, sopas, name it, paborito ko'ng lahat yan. Simpleng-simple lang pero di papatalo sa lasa ng iba. Pang 5-star restaurant sa sarap pero murang-mura. O san ka pa?! Masarap na, mura pa!

1st FAVE EATS: Baby Back Ribs @ Old 37

Hi to you again. My Cebu trip hangover was completely past so as the lechon, halo-halo, danggit and otap down to my stomach. I don't know how many pounds or kilos I've gained but who cares, ang sarap kayang kumain. Tsaka bakasyon nga diba? You have freedom to do anything, eat anything, taste anything and try anything you want. That's freedom, man!

4th Post: La Marea Pastry Shop and Lavazza Café

I told you I still got that vacation hangover from my trip last week to Cebu. I'm still delighted in all the things I've seen in Cebu, sobrang gaganda at babait ng mga tao dito kaya sure na sure akong babalikan ko tong lugar na to. 


After having breakfast at Glo Cafe, Crown Regency Plaza, that serves us and the other guests a one damn full-packed American buffet breakfast, we crave for some Cebuano desserts. Oo, nabitin pa kami sa buffet breakfast namin sa lagay na un ah kaya nakuha pa namin lumipat ng ibang café para mag-dessert. 

The unsatisfied (being sarcastic) buffet eaters: Tita Ellen, Cheska, Jamie, and Just.

3rd Post: ZUBUCHON "Best Pig...EVER"

Hello to you again. This will be the 3rd post for my Cebu Trip. Sorry may hang-over pa rin ako sa bakasyon ko last week sa Cebu. And I'm sure lahat ng turista na bumisita dito, eh parehas kami nang nararamdaman pagkatapos ng bakasyon - gustong bumalik. 

Cebu is known so well of their lechon or suckling pig (English term). Lechon is a Spanish word pala so malamang sa malamang sila ang nagpasimuno nito. Kaya Pinoys must thank the Spaniards dahil kung di dahil sa kanila wala tayong lechon na 'bida tuwing handaan' ngayon.

2nd Post: Bantayan Island, Special Halo-Halo

I am telling you, this is not your "Ordinary" halo-halo.
