Foodie 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 MoreTapang Usa (Deer Jerky)
I recently went on an excursion to Norzagaray with some photographers to shoot both the dam and some local tribes. Alas, the water level in the IPO Dam was dangerously low which really was scaring me. We weren’t able to encounter some Dumagats as well. We ended up hunting for Tapang Usa or Deer Jerky. We wanted some Wild Boar too, but it we couldn’t find any at the local market as...

Read MoreKuala Lumpur: 2 Day Tryst
Kuala Lumpur by Night: The City Sleeps It was nothing but a fling. Something more than a one night stand but not quite enough to be called acquaintances. This was my relationship with KL. It was such a short stay, but I got real intimate with the place. Thanks to Tim. That in the very short and quick 2 days, he managed to show me the potential that KL had. On our last day, we ate at Xiao Fei...
Read MoreFood Trip: Kuala Lumpur Style
When we talk about food tripping it usually involves venturing out to a certain province or locale and eating the food there. But when Timothy Tiah took us food tripping it involved going from one restaurant to another. Ordering just enough at each place to keep you satisfied and yet not full. But after this was a series of meals where you just have to have enough space! So the food trip...
Read MoreDuck King on Jaya One
Our gracious host and leader Mr. Timothy Tiah (one of the founders of Nuffnang) took us all out for dinner at Duck King located at Jaya One just outside Kuala Lumpur. It would be a chinese dinner. And it would be one of the best. First to arrive would be the mapo tofu steak with seaweed or nori on top. The tofu was one of the best I’ve tasted. Nice and firm when you scoop it up but...
Read MoreSingapore Hawker
So Foodie Manila goes international. I was a bit hesitant to try a Hawker center since it was compared to our carinderia in the philippines. But then again this is Singapore. Their hawker center was the highlight of my trip. Can you say P90 for rice, soup, and duck?? Singapore food was awesome! (but KL food was even better!) Here are some shots of the food I ate! Sesame Seed Chicken Rice Duck...
Read MoreA Taste of Iloilo
Visiting Cafe Jeepney for the first I was taken a back with the beautiful and quiet surroundings. I really love dining at Hotels. I feel so classy and as such I feel the need to dress up. A hearty spread of popular dishes from Iloilo was on the menu today. Chef Pauline Goriceta-Banusing was preparing the dishes to be served today. She will be at Cafe Jeepney from September 16 till September 30...
Read MoreFoodiemanila flies to Laoag
We left Manila via Terminal 2 at around 545. Along with our entire group of 17, we had to check in alot of stuff. Since I was travelling with Chefs, they all brought along their own equipment. Even their own pots and pans, as well as mixers, knives, ingredients, flowers, and plates. (talk about being prepared!) Chef Heny was the head of the group. Chef Glenn acted as usher and Chef Kathy was also...
