Before the strawberry season comes to an end, I would like to use my leftover strawberries to make a different strawberry dessert this time. You know I always have stocks of these pink berries for the Strawberry Cream Cheese Sando and Strawberry Milk I’m selling. Today, I want my kitchen to see something new so
Cafe culture is huge in Vietnam, where you can grab coffee at the thousands of street stalls, coffee shops and restaurants located in every city. In fact, the country is known for different variations of iced coffee such as cà phê sữa đá, egg coffee, coconut coffee, pandan coffee and yogurt coffee. Cà phê sữa đá is their
Just like last week’s Noche Buena, I made sure to have my own contribution every Media Noche or New Year’s Eve feast. But it was my first time to run out of ideas. I just created a simple and common one, which is Filipino Coconut Salad or Buko Salad. But, when we were setting our

Satay is Southeast Asian version of kebab. It can be chicken, beef, pork, goat or lamb, skewered then barbecued. It is marinated in curry,
Before the era of TikTok recipes, we were so obsessed on watching Buzzfeed recipes. I was in college back then and these videos from Buzzfeed’s Youtube channel were my comfort clips to watch. In fact, I started cooking because of Buzzfeed. It’s because of them that I became the cook of the family every noontime.
I’ve already tried something unusual last time with coffee during the Vietnamese Egg Coffee. Now, we’re having another strange pair, which is coffee and avocado. I saw avocado coffee first on TikTok and the combination felt weird. But I discovered that Avocado Coffee and Avocado Frappe isn’t new in Indonesia so I gave it a
Filipinos first witnessed and discovered crepes at early 2000s when Crazy Crepe built a number of stalls in our country. Other restaurants eventually added crepes in their dessert menu. This French pancake became a favorite to eat during snack time. We enjoy it in cake form, in cone or in folds. It’s so good when
