Take me Back- Mang Larry's Isawan at UP Campus

-


Hi Loves!

As I was glued into my laptop's screen I was thinking of how to be productive during this weekend. Well I was a bit  bored from my usual dose of Youtube videos and I was too lazy to read the remaining part of the book that I am currently reading- It's the Death Cure btw. I was browsing my mobile's gallery when I suddenly saw this picture of grilled chicken innards from my first visit to Mang Larry's at UP and I started reminiscing that day.

I got to visit this place last year because we went to UP Diliman to practice for an upcoming run. After maybe a 4-6K run we decided that we need to replenish those lost calories.

When we got there, there are still a lot of patrons and the tables are nearly full. However we did not wait too long to find a place to sit. I ordered chicken and pork isaw (intestines) and tenga (Ear).  Honestly I did not expect it to be so cheap. I think At that time price is around 5-7 pesos per stick. They just announced a price increase this year. I was overwhelmed and order around 10- 12 sticks. Holy uric acid overload! It got us around 5-10 minutes for our orders to arrived. I remember clearly, my first bite of the pork tenga was so damn good. The meat is tender and juicy and it can stand without the sawsawan because it's already tasty. But I would also commend the dipping sauce or the sawsawan because swear it's one of the best dipping sauce that I had so far. I love the combination of the vinegar with the spices put into it. Truly an amazing experience.

A barbacue stand is a staple in every community, but even if I tasted a lot of bbq variations, I would really love to go back at Mang Larry's Isawan because why not??






Till next time!

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
