I needed another dish for my food this week and I decided to cook up Bagis. Bagis is ground beef cooked in calamansi (Philippine lime). I’m trying to plan my dishes wherein I can eat it up since I’m having a hard time eating due to my dental braces. It’s very easy to cook this dish…

Chicken Tinola
The second chicken dish I cooked up today is Chicken Tinola. It’s funny that the dining table is full of chicken dishes. Yesterday, it was full of pork! Seems like I have a protein theme this weekend. Anyhow, I want to make sure that we have both a soup and a main in our meal so…
Chicken Adobo
I have a rule in the kitchen that I do only keep ingredients in the fridge that I intend to use for the week. So as I was trying to do a cleanup of my fridge, I saw that there are still a lot more chicken thighs. Thus, today, I decided to cook two different…
Pork Giniling
I just had my braces 2 weeks ago and I’m in so much pain. For the past two weeks, all I had was soup, congee and water. I’ve been really weak and started to easily get irritated. Most of all, I miss eating food. I needed to do something about it so I decided to…
Pork Sinigang
For the past few months, I had the privilege of sampling my mom’s dishes. Thus, I never needed to cook because her cooking (especially Chinese food) is just the best! However, since my mom left the Philippines already, I needed to get back to cooking. So today, I decided to cook two dishes. One of…
White Tinola
Today, I wanted to try something different. I’ve eaten tinola so many times but I haven’t tried eating tinola with milk. So for the recipe I’m sharing with you today, it’s White Tinola. Looking at the big reaction of a friend who tried out the dish, it seems like my dish today is a success! I…
Binagoongang Baboy
I love food with shrimp paste. But I’m a little bit picky with the brand of shrimp paste that I eat. My only choice is the Barrio Fiesta brand. Which is why I’ve cooked the Binagoongang Baboy recipe I’m sharing with you now using the product. I love a little seafood-y taste on my pork. 😉 Usually,…
Nilagang Pata
I’m getting my cooking groove back. Since I started with the Pork Adobo during lunch today, I tried my hand with a soup recipe. For dinner, I prepared Nilagang Pata. This is another Filipino dish and I’m not yet done cooking more Filipino dishes. Whenever I’m craving for Filipino soup, I always go for Bulalo (beef soup) & Sinigang…
Pork Adobo
I missed cooking! I said to myself that I will try to cook at least once a week. For today, I’m sharing here what people usually call the national dish of the Philippines, the Pork Adobo. It’s funny that in one of the episodes of My Kitchen Rules Australia that is airing now, one of the…
Cake Decorating with Chef Penk Ching at the Maya Kitchen
Last July 30, I attended the cooking & baking demo of popular cake Chef Penk Ching. It was truly an honour seeing her showcase her talent in cake decorating. I actually thought that Chef Penk Ching will only demo cake decorating at the Maya Kitchen. However, I was pleasantly surprised that she also showed us…
