Hopelessly Craving December 21, 2007

 

Nostalgia struck me today. Aside from good friends back home, I truly long for my favourite/comfort foods that I can’t seem to find here:

1. Crabs (haven’t found a well-known and reputable fishmonger who sells good crab; the ones in the supermarket look ‘unhealthy’ and they’re expensive!)

2. Talangka

3. Bangus especially the one from Dagupan

4. Cakes from Red Ribbon especially Ube cake

5. Fresh buko juice

6. Doughnuts from KrispyKreme or GoNuts

7. Sr. Pedro / Andok’s lechon manok

—Only in Cebu—

8. CnT lechon

9. Guadalupe’s sweet mangoes

10. Ice Castle’s halo-halo

11. STK in Capitol especially their tuna panga

12. Crispy pata of Café Laguna (unbeatable)

 

Huh?! It just occurred to me that I’m actually craving for 12 items and I can’t think of anything more…gosh, may I sing the “12 Days of Christmas” and hope that D will read this hehe

 

Really, if I could just have any of the aforementioned, my Christmas would be extraordinary! But then again…I guess it will only remain in my dreams…my, oh my! why can’t I have the best of both worlds?!!

    Kahit saan tayo magpunta hinahanap hanap parin natin ang sariling atin. Ang sasarap kasi ng mga pagkaing pinoy kaya nakaka miss.

    Ang lechon cebu. yummy.. Its very delicious. The tender juicy meat and crunchy skin. Wow its great! Hindi na kailangan lagyan pa ng liver sauce or mang tomas kasi malasa na sya.
