Had the privilege last night of being invited to dine at a chef’s home - which to me is always the greatest honor. And they had one guest - me! 👸🏻Thank you @chefjayps @camanglo for welcoming me to your lovely home!! 🔜 Chef JP is going to do a kitchen takeover of @therealmarketman’s @zubuchon BGC (this Feb!) ... where you will get to try his Zubuchon-inspired menu posted here such as lechon monggo (mongo with crispy lechon skin instead of dried fish), lechon sisig, lechon pares and fried chicken cooked using lard. Get ready to throw your New Year’s diet resolution away ...

Amazing grazing 🌟 Starting the year on a high note with Iberico and Emmental at the Fajardos 😍 Followed by a bit of Broadway and a bit of jazz and a lot of booze 😁🥃 Champagne and corretto cheers to our hosts! 2020 is going to be a fun, fabulous year! 🥂 #salondenining #thankyou

Merry Christmas mula sa aming angkan from Sta Maria, Bulacan! 🌟🎄🥂

Christmas calorie countdown 🥳 The Grid has become my go-to for balikbayans and this 17-layer chocolate cake is always a hit!! Happy that the new wing is open so there’s a bit more privacy. After my cousins ordered from almost every stall, it even felt like we were having our own little potluck party! And if you need spirits to get into the spirit, the bar makes a decent Old Fashioned too! 🥃 @chefmikoaspiras Manila misses you! Merry Christmas!

Sarap pala the steak salad and burger of Wolfgang! Post-show chow after watching Lea Salonga’s Christmas concert @resortsworldmanila. Because she so forcefully while enumerating show credits said to eat there tho it was too late in the evening for a Porterhouse.

She worked on this for a year, cooking and testing each recipe of her mom. Some recipes stayed the same, some were made better, some were given her own touch. The result is a recipe book that was thoroughly tried and tested that a new generation of home cooks can really count on. Congratulations Nina Daza Puyat!! Mommy Nora Daza undoubtedly smiling, beaming in heaven! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ @ninadp8 Happy I got to attend this pocket launch at The Maya Kitchen. ❤️❤️❤️ December 11, 2019

#Reunion yesterday at City of Dream’s truly first class Chinese restaurant Crystal Dragon. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ • Lobster dumpling in a pork and shrimp consomme. Don’t be distracted by the gold-ornamented lobster dumpling. This is all about the incredible broth. • An appetizer of foie gras on scallop. So indulgent. • Salted duck egg on prawns. Don’t be deceived - super high on cholesterol! But sooo good! • Lobster roll. It had a delicate crunchy curd wrapper before the dumpling sheets and the chef was generous with the lobster meat! My fave. • (Not in pic - an incredible chicken and walnuts dish, mushrooms and vegetables, their yang chow rice) • Ending with the adorable bird-themed petit four of chef (watch waitress explain in video) Oh! And don’t fail to notice the 50-year-old P1Million-a-bottle Moutai!! No we didn’t open it lol!! Just shocked at the price! 😮🤑 Crystal Dragon is in Nuwa at the City of Dreams. Definitely a Chinese resto for special occasions with loved ones!

Have you ever seen a Sycamore tree? I love trees; I actually follow #trees. This is the tree that supposedly Zacchaeus, the chief tax collector in Christ’s time, climbed when Jesus passed Jericho on his way to Jerusalem. It is 2000 years old!!! Zacchaeus was short so he had to climb the tree to see Jesus then Jesus spotted him and called him by name and said he would pass by his house - a reminder on how we must reach out to the lost (corrupted).
