The Search for the Scale-less Sardines

Have you ever wondered down the aisle where all sorts and brands of sardines are neatly displayed and asked yourself... hmmm... now which one of these doesn't have scales on them? Well, I have! And I kept forgetting which ones they were! So this time, I have documented all the sardines I could eat and rate them so as I won't ever forget again. Hopefully, you'll also find the perfect sardines for yourself as you read on.

Note: This is a work in progress... will keep updating this post till I find the perfect one! Enjoy!

Resto Review: Little Quiapo, Quezon City

After my bread making class at World Citi College, we went to Little Quiapo, Quezon City to have our lunch. This place is well-known for their Halo-Halo and pancit palabok.


My husband ordered their Kalderetang Baka (Php 293) - rice not included. I so love its sauce, it was

Learning How to Bake Breads

I have now been using my convection oven for more than a month now and I am so excited to bake more goodies using it. Luckily, CashCashPinoy has ongoing deals on bread making and basic baking so I right away bought vouchers and scheduled my classes for this September.

My first class with The Baking Workshop was last September 7 (Sunday) from 8AM to 12Noon at World Citi College's Culinary Kitchen located along Anonas, Quezon City. Chef Voj was our

Getting healthy with Sexy Chef's Healthy Plate Diet Meals

After having a really bad experience with a certain diet meal delivery, I didn't go back to having diet meal plans for some time. But now I feel like I'm once again gaining weight and since I'm afraid of exploring new diet meal companies - I'm relying on one of the most sure companies I know - The Sexy Chef.

I received an SMS from them offering their new diet program, The Healthy Plate Diet, at half the price just by replying to them my company name. The Healthy Plate Diet is originally priced at Php1,000 per day but for a limited time they are offering it at half price which will cost you Php2,500 for 5 days. The Diet Plan provides 1,200 calories per day which includes breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner. Meals will be delivered to you a day before consumption usually around 3PM to 5PM in the afternoon.

Breakfast: Mediterranean Omelet
My breakfast for today was omelet stuffed with eggplant and ground meat (I think) in red sauce. I

My first muffins: Boracay Calamansi Muffins

I have always wanted to make muffins for myself and since my husband got me an oven - I can now make my dreams turn into reality. hahaha

My husband bought a convection oven for my birthday, you can read about it here. But I can't start yet, I have to find the perfect muffin/cupcake pans that would fit my cute oven. I finally found one in Landmark Makati - it was a myKitchen 12 cup muffin flower pan which costs Php200+ each.

My friend also gave me a EuroPro 12 cup muffin pan and cookie tray but unfortunately the muffin pan was too small and the cookie tray was too big. My husband was able to make alterations to the muffin pan, he bended both sides a little bit and voila! it now fits. My husband is really so supportive. (",)

Anyways, we recently just went to Boracay and we tried the famous Real Coffee Calamansi muffins and it was delightful and I would love to be able to do one for myself. So after searching the
