I am a food enthusiast and a shutterbug at day and a blogger at night.
It is the marriage of my passion for food and photography that has developed my love for food blogging.
Blogging about food is definitely not something new to me but it is just lately that I have started to become really religious on coming up with new content every now and then.
To share about all the fantastic restaurants in our humble hometown gives joy not only to me but, apparently, to my friends too.
However, I believe it is about time for me to venture out and go what is beyond my horizon.
It has always been my dream to go to around the Philippines (and hopefully, soon, the world) to sample authentic delicacies from various regions.
For me, this is a different kind of learning experience because it helps me to be more open and appreciative of the unique notes of flavors and tastes from all over the country.
I believe that I am the Ultimate Food Blogger because my passion for food (especially Filipino food) simply runs into my veins and I can translate my thoughts and experiences into words and photographs.
Blogging about food is not only something that I do as a pastime but slowly it is starting to become an extension of who I am.
It is a lifestyle. My lifestyle at that.
Now, allow me to narrate about what my boyfriend and I had for lunch the other day at Delecta Diner and Cafe…
We had “Kinilaw” (a classic favorite of mine), Humba (“Pork Adobo”), Smoked Bangus and Halo-halo Supreme.
I like how Delecta’s “Kinilaw” had a wonderful nippy mix of fresh raw fish marinated in vinegar with some spices. The heat from the chopped chilies was perfect. Just thinking about how this dish tasted makes me slobber.
The Smoked Bangus was something I never had before so I really have no clue what to expect of it. I was quite hesitant to give it a try. But curiosity won me over, so I took a bite and boyyyy did it blow me away! I instantly wanted more! I love its woodsy smoke flavor which really elevated the flavor of the fish. Plus, the salad on the side was a bonus.
Here’s a closer look of the Smoked Bangus. Yum.
And there I am looking dead serious. Seriously dead hungry that is. Beside the platter of “Kinilaw” is “Humba”… Another delicious heart-clogging dish which I failed to document due to hunger. Pardon.
Lastly, here is their massive bowl of Halo-halo Supreme which pretty much had every essential ingredient to make heavenly halo-halo. All it lacked was Cornflakes. But I enjoyed it very much nonetheless. The perfect dessert to end a DELECTAble meal. Pun intended.
Closing this post with a wacky photo of my boyfriend showing the enormousness of Delecta’sHalo-halo Supreme. Please compare it to the size of his head. Kthxbye.
