A Meal Fit for an Emperor
Warning: Looking at the photos may cause hunger. Foodie Manila is not responsible for your cravings. I love my blog. Wait I’m being vague. Let me be more specific. I.LOVE.MY.BLOG. Today I was invited to have an intimate lunch at the New World Hotel’s Jasmine Cantonese Restaurant. Their head chef Choi Wing Ki prepared a special menu just for us. My first impression is that it was a...
Read MoreFood Photography 101
I have been blogging and food photography for almost 3 years now but only recently did I really take it seriously. It was just a wasteland of my thoughts and adventures before where I could every now and then see how I have developed as well as take a look back at my online chronicles of my so-called life. Food has always been and will always be a part of my blogging experience. The best way to...
Read MoreFoodie Manila will be flying to KL
Hi Guys, So I finally did it. I booked a flight to KL. I couldn’t resist since a year ago, the last time I was in KL I had a taste of KL food, but wasn’t able to do a proper feature. (not to mention my photography sucked back then!) So this time around, armed with my photography gear as well as my new found love for food (ok so its not quite new) I booked a flight to KL. I am staying...
Read MoreInaugural Day Lunch
Since the Foodie club has been on hiatus lately, some of the founding members decided to just have a quaint little lunch at Richard‘s place. We decided on having a time old tested classic of HCR. (Hainanese Chicken Rice for the uninitiated. Check out old post here) Between Bites and I have been talking about this lunch for quite some time not only for the food, but also for the kwento and...
Read MoreSecret Taste Test (Guest Photographer)
Every now and then I would have guest writers write entries for me regarding a particular restaurant and/or dining experience. I find this a thrill because it offers up a different point of view, in terms of the experience itself. I offer up a refreshing new perspective. For this series, I brought along a guest photographer! Surprise surprise right? Garry G. Angeles has been a friend for quite...
Read MoreThe Secret Taste Test (2nd Series)
Its been a week since the initial taste test was conducted, and based on the comments I got last week, we have improved the recipe as well as variety of burgers. This time around I came prepared as well. With the right equipment as well as right lighting techniques. I knew I was going to be styling the food. With each dish being prepped for my styling skills (or rather whatever I thought looked...
Read MoreSecret Taste Test
Every now and then blogging does have its perks. The other day a friend of mine invited me to be the official taste tester for his upcoming project. I took up the burden (yes the burden!) of having to go through the burgers, fries, buffalo wings, and a beers for his up-coming resto. Since I can’t really name who my friend is, where his resto will open up, when, what the concept is, and the...

Written by: Jane Chua of Between Bites Tuesday night, Bubba, Zips and I trudged to Jupiter Street to meet Eva Wong, the wits behind creative chocolate at the fabulously posh Maitre Chocolatier Boutique Café. Eva is Bubba’s long time friend but she can easily pass off as his cousin as well since they share the same family name. Ambiance was simply perfect Maitre Chocolatier Situated along the...

Read MoreKing One
We, as humans, usually associate things with certain memories. Whether it be a scent of an ex girlfriend of boyfriend, the way your house smells when your mom cooks a certain dish, or even the way your bed feels after a long and tiring day. Last Sunday, I encountered such an event. The night I was leaving for KL, our most awesome boss took us to steam boat place somewhere in Petaling Jaya I...
