Weekend BBQ

Weekends are great time to have family bonding and cooking.

Here are some simple dishes we had that made us occupied.

More close up images after the break.

Don Henrico's Festival Mall, Alabang Experience

It's been awhile since my last blog post, the shaman have been busy with stuff here and there.

Earlier this evening, I visited Festival Mall in Filinvest Alabang. Meet up with wifey and have dinner. This is not a review but my experience with an ordinary fellow whom I would say enthusiastic and dedicated.

Kudos to the security guard named "Makki," He's the guy wearing long sleeved polo barong looking like PSG (Presidential Security Group) the counterpart for Secret Service for the US. He's the guy incharge of the door welcoming customers, opening door and such.

I prefered eating outside so I can smoke, this guy welcomed me and offered a table inside. I insisted to eat outside otherwise. He gaved me the menu, my wife ordered pizza and a double roast rib. Then beer for me and bottomless iced tea for wifey.

Grilled Mussels, Oysters and Tilapia Dinner

Grilled Seafoods

It's once again dinner time, and the shaman's having fun with food again. We had some Tahong (Mussels), Talaba (Oysters) and Fish (Tilapia).

It's a good thing having fast metabolic rate, eating will not get you fat. For this evening we decided to grab some grilled seafoods, since the red tide warning has been lifted and he haven't tasted tahong and oyster for quite some time.

The shaman fired up some uling (Coal), and placed  tahong and oyster over it. It cooks fast, and its quite half-cook compared to conventional cooking methods. Vinegar sauce/dip will make it more tasty and complete the cooking process. Like kinilaw recipes, It applies the same method. For our vinegar sauce, I diced some onions, sili (pepper), pepino (Cucumber), a bit of salt, and sugar.
