Healthy Shabu-shabu Recipe

by Posted on

Today I’ve prepared a healthy shabu shabu meal. Shabu-shabu is a dish from Japan usually prepared with thinly sliced beef, pork, crab, chicken and lobster.

Some of the ingredients were bought from Robinsons Supermarket Galleria, the Prawns, creamdory and Salmon came from Farmers Market in Cubao.

Ingredients:

  • Brown Rice
  • Homemade creamdory fish balls
  • Salmon
  • Creamdory
  • Tiger Prawns
  • Crab Sticks
  • Shiitake Mushroom
  • Tiong HWA Tofu
  • Fresh Noodles
  • Chinese Cabbage
  • Ready to Eat Dae Jang Gum Korean Fresh Kimchi (No Preservatives)
  • Water
  • Spring Onions
  • Chopped chilli
  • Tomatoes
  • Carrots
  • Leeks
  • Garlic

Preparation:

Just boil the water and pour in all of the ingredients. Make sure to put in the fishballs and tofu first as they tend to cook the longest. Vegetables go in last.

Prepare the kimchi, chopped chillis, chopped onions for garnish and appetizer.
Enjoy!

Food For Your Skin

by Posted on

You shouldn’t be only concerned of the food that you take but also, of the food that your skin takes. If body needs nourishment so as beauty. I started using Snoe White Beauty Bar about a month ago and I can evidently see the  immediate improvement on my skin.

Now, I’m pretty sure that you have a big question on your mind. I had this blog for over a year now and it’s obviously about food. You must be wondering why I have posted something like this – a far-flung topic that doesn’t even have the slightest relevance to food. You are wrong. I tell you.

Why?

Because our skin needs to be nurtured and nourished and with that, we have to feed it with all the nourishment that it needs and I am not talking about the expensive chemicals that you buy from the posh stores which are not safe to use and are very harmful to your skin, let alone health. I am talking about a naturally made soap by Snoe Beauty Inc. This is another Filipino brand that we all have to give our support to. Love your own.

Snoe White Beauty Bar comes in 12 types (they have numbered their soaps, you will see it in the packaging but the list below is not in order):

  1. Maximum Whitening Moringa or Malunggay
  2. Vitamin C Rich Calamansi
  3. Rejuvenating Collagen
  4. Exfoliating Oatmeal
  5. Organic Green Papaya
  6. Organic Papaya (orange)
  7. Special Kojic And Gluta Combo
  8. Extra Strength Glutathione
  9. Extra Strength Kojic
  10. Special Black Bleaching Soap
  11. Lightening Licorice
  12. Antibac Brightening Citronella

The common denominator for these soaps is the aim for that whiter and radiant skin. They come in a lovely packaging and in different colors according to the natural ingredient they represent.

My personal favorite is the Snoe White Organic Green Papaya Beauty Bar, I am not a user of whitening products but I use this soap because it effectively exfoliates my skin, it eliminates the dark pigmentation and blemishes on my skin. I love a shiny skin, not a shiny oily but a shiny healthy and firm skin that is fresh, radiant and clean. And that is what a Snoe Beauty Bar does to my skin.

If you have acne problems, you might want to try the Snoe Beauty Moringa Beauty Bar – it is naturally made of Moringa or Malunggay that is rich in Vitamins A, C, and E that make the skin lighter and more importantly it also contains, a high level of oleic acid that stimulates skin regeneration and has healing benefits for acne, cuts, scrapes and skin cracks for a healthier and fairer looking skin.

Snoe Beauty Inc. is a company that produces herbal skin care and is therefore naturally safe and an absolutely good food for your skin, it has outlets in SM Muntinlupa, Robinsons Galleria and Robinsons Malate, they are also in the Bazaars near you. I heard that they will open another branch in Cinderella at Glorietta 5 by end of October. For more information, you may visit Snoe Beauty’s Facebook Page:

Manang’s Chicken – Truly, A Delight!

by Posted on

I have heard people talk about Manang’s Chicken on Facebook and Twitter. I have heard them saying how good it is, that Manang’s Chicken is the “Bagong Fried Chicken ng Pinoy”. The foodie in me got curious and I decided to call Manang’s Chicken for Delivery in the office.

I am delighted upon looking at the big portion of chicken cuts in front of me and the smell was so good, it filled the entire office floor. I haven’t yet to taste Bon Chon Chicken but boy, I must say that Manang’s Chicken is super good, their double deep fried crispy chicken with Manang’s secret soy garlic sauce is making its way to the Filipino taste if not already there. It’s perfectly crispy on the outside, deliciously juicy on the inside and the sauce complements all the flavors in the chicken. There are three sauces that you can choose from, Original, Mild Spicy and of course, a personal favorite, Extra Spicy. This really makes me proud because I believe this is another Filipino brand that is spelling success on its frontier.

I just wish that Manang’s Chicken would add more food on its menu though, like breakfast and chicken fillet. I have surely ended my day with a smile on my face.

You can drop by at their Ortigas branch if you feel the urge on weekdays as they are only open on the weekends at Mercato Centrale where they had their first branch and where they were first discovered and loved by people. You can also call them for delivery in this number 5848848.
