I heard about this chicken from my awesome yahoogroup mates, and I’ve always wanted to try it, but for some reason, never had the chance.
So, yehba!, they deliver and for the PG overnighter last night, we got some BBQ Chicken.
BBQ is a franchise from Korea, and it stands for Best of the Best Quality Chicken.
I [...]

Foodwise, nothing much.
We’re still in the process of putting up the franchise that we recently bought into. Here’s hoping it’s operational next week!
Fingers and toes crossed!

I have been bitten by the bug I’ve previously been impervious to.
THE PROCRASTINATION BUG.
I’m waiting for something to happen it seems.
Damn, I hate this as much as it’s easy to do.
Procrastination is easy on a full stomach though.. hmm…

It’s my birthmonth and it’s time to party y’all!
Sadly, I’m opting to deliver out instead of cooking my own treats for my birthday.
Also, I’m wishing for something this year.
Guess what it is?
Having a party, and the party’s theme is Fantabulous! haha!

Last night, I got my first big naysayer, and the naysayer was quite close to me. Maybe it’s the fact that I’m making decisions on my own and going at something on my own, or maybe it’s something else entirely.
It’s being called stupid when you know you’ve got a plan. It started to drive [...]

Here’s hoping that I get a camera when my mom comes back from Dubai.
That’ll mean finally having the capacity to have pictures, and to dabble in food photography.
And to finally read that book on Digital Photography that I bought so long ago.
This week has been quiet culinary wise, although we’re sorting out the new business [...]

I’m finally living up to my name.
I am an undercover chef.
Haha, I’m a businesswoman by day and night, chef at heart.
Does that even make sense?
So here’s what’s been up.
1) Manila Toffee Co. – sells truffles, and toffees to our very loyale clientele in Makati and is newly starting out distribution in Alabang. [...]

To all food afficionados wanting something new:
I recently attended a food tasting/launching in Zenses, neo-chinese cuisine place in the A.Venue Mall c/o Playboy Magazine. Initial impression of the sampling wasn’t very impressive, but I got what they were going for, which was a new twist to Chinese Classics. Suffice it to say, I was not [...]

So how was your holy week?
Mine has been pretty normal and steady, and such is the way of spending vacation at home.
Also, being given the chance to be at home, with our cook having her vacation, I found myself with chances to flex mi culinary muscles during this lenten season.
I cooked mainly two things: Chicken [...]
