My First ever Tteokbokki Experience.

Mr. Kimbob Tteokbokki


Hi Loves!

Alright so it’s been a while since I posted my last blog and honestly I kinda missed writing. It’s just that I have been busy with some stuff lately that I cannot squeeze in blogging on my daily routine. But Hey I’m BACK! And I will do my best to post weekly blogs for all of you! It’s a long weekend here now and I don’t have much thing to do than to watch TV and sleep. So I decided to make it more productive. Today I’m going to share with you loves my very first Ttekbokki experience.

Most of Filipinos now are hooked on these Korean Dramas and went gaga over these handsome Oppas and pretty Unnis. I am not hiding my fondness over Korean dramas but I would say that “ME” being me, I am quiet more interested on their Food. So I went to Google and search for some of the famous food and from there I got to know one famous Korean street food the “Tteokbokki” or Spicy Korean Rice Cake. And OH! I got to see this dish as well on some Korean Dramas I’ve watched. Tteokbokki is actually made from small sized cylinder shaped rice cakes seasoned with chilli paste or soy sauce. Most common ingredients added to the dish are fish cakes, boiled egg and scallions.

With the wide range of Korean restaurants in Manila there’s a lot of place where I can try this dish. But the one that stands-out and my personal choice is “Mr. KIMBOB”.  Well this place is not a fancy Korean Restaurant in fact most of its stalls are located on the malls food court area where most of the people go and eat. Here you get to eat a good Korean inspired meal on a reasonable price. 

The first bite I had with Tteokbokki I can say was very delightful. I fell in love with dish right away. Mr. Kimbob’ Tteokbokki was a mixture of different flavours- sweet, sour, spicy and salty all in a good way. I can’t stop devouring every piece of the rice cakes on my plate. I finished the whole plate in less than 5 minutes, and I literally want more. Hahaha.

To those of you guys who wanted to try Korean foods don’t hesitate giving Tteokbokki a try. I 100% recommend you trying it and definitely just like me you will fall in love with the dish. I am so excited trying more Tteokbokki recipe from other restaurants and I will definitely write something about it. So check on that also.
If you loves has any suggestions on the next Korean dish or any other dish I should try next. Please leave it on the comment box below. And I will surely try my best to document it.
Till my next Blog Loves! Ahn Nyeong Hee Gyea Se Yo!

Love,
Cassie

Goldilocks Chocolate Cake Red Ribbon Moist Chocolate Cake Hi Loves, Today I'm going to do a comparison blog for a chocolate cake slice from 2 popular bakeshop here in the Philippines and that's Goldilocks and Red Ribbon. Yesterday I went to buy something for my pamangkins (niece/nephew) and decided to buy Goldilocks Choco Cake. I happen to pass by Red Ribbon kiosk and saw that they also got their own version. And right there and then  the idea of comparing them popped into my mind. Packaging:                                                               Goldilocks Packaging                   Red Ribbon Packaging                    In terms of packaging I think I would need to go with Goldilocks. It doesn't look too tight and more catchy for me. Price: Red Ribbon Moist Choco Slice cost 21 pesos for 67 grams while Goldilocks Chocolate Cake Slice is at 24 at 90 grams. So thats's 3 pesos for the additional

Hi Loves! Welcome back to my blog! I have yet another song review for you loves and this is the song called "Who Say's" by the lovely Selena Gomez which was released in March 2011. I have been in love with this song for years and it is still on my phone's playlist up to now. The songs message plus it's cool tune who would resist? I am a person who loves music. I nearly appreciate every genre, well depends on my mood too. But one thing that influence me in loving a song is the lyrics, the message the song wanted to impart to the  person who listens to it. And this one is an example. As discussed on my previous blog. I have been an insecure person. Afraid that people might not like me. Blending in was very difficult. Insecurities are all over. In this generation physical beauty is given a priority by so many. Cosmetics surgeries and enhancements, fashion trends to name a few are very rampant. I'm not saying that these are bad. Everything are entitl

Hi Loves, Another year has passed! I’ve been through a lot lately and because of that I honestly set aside blogging on my weekly routine. It just that times has been rough and I was so busy focusing on how to survive. But I’m back I hopefully can post weekly blogs for your entertainment. I have a lot of things in store for you and I’m so excited to post them here. For my ever first blog for this year I will be giving my thoughts on another Korean dish wish is very healthy and perfect for this time after that binge eating we had last holiday. The Korean dish I am talking about is Bibimbap or in English it means mixed rice. It’s a combination of different vegetables, zucchini, cucumber and so on along with rice, meat and egg. Red pepper paste is also added for a spicy kick. The first bibimbap I had was from Mr. Kimbob and I tell you it’s worth it. Their recipe is so delicious. I like mine so spicy and I’m glad they have free red pepper paste. Price wise it’s so in
