Johnny Rockets


Ever heard of Johnny Rockets?

I haven't! It was only through my BIL (Brother-In-Law) and SIL (Sister-In-Law) that I heard it. BIL said that in the US - the milkshakes served were very thick and that they're really good.

So, on a Saturday night - after my Panget's and SIL's shopping quest at the St. James bazaar in Alabang, we went to Eastwood City, to try out the milkshakes!!

The resto was very well lit and music from the 70's was blasting from the antique jukebox (P1.00 song selection!) It was something like a blast from the past! Hahaha.. It was actually fun - to see servers all dressed in white with hats and aprons on. Something different, there was an American diner feel to it, as the interiors were filled with 60's or 70's memorabilia.

WE ordered half fried & half onion rings and milkshake.



The fries & onion rings were kinda small - I mean for the price - P125.00. The plate where the food was placed, was for me - tiny. I wanted to suggest to make the plates bigger, so the dish would somehow look it has value for money. Onions and potatoes aren't that expensive anyways.



The main event was the Milkshakes. I ordered the Strawberry Milkshake. The first sip was the hardest - as the milkshake was really really thick! My BIL thought that those big straws used by Zagu should be given instead of the regular ones. The flavor of the milkshake was just right, my Panget loved it and wanted another order! He got the Oreo Cookies and Cream flavor. The only downside? The price was a hefty P265.00 per milkshake.

They also have burgers in the menu - but the price is again, kinda steep for burgers. The prices of the burgers were like that of Chili's but the size - a little smaller, and the sidings - much much smaller.

Will I give it another go?

Definitely - to try out the burgers this time.. :)
(they have 100% soy burgers and turkey patties!)

ANSON SUPERMARKET - Grocery delivery!!

Sharing is caring, so we can't keep it a secret any longer.  THIS is where we get out groceries!  Well, Anson Supermarket has been where we have been purchasing all of our kids' diapers!  From Kailee to Connor to Shobe!  Yes, yes, yes! A week into the lockdown, it just occurred to us that we can get our groceries from them - but then we thought, we didn't want to force them to do it - after all it's a different time now.  But when we asked and they said yes, it was like we won the lottery.  We sent out our list - a very VERY SPECIFIC list and voila after a day or two (we weren't in a rush) they told us to schedule a pick up.  Please remember that I am sharing this with you guys because I believe so much in the saying 'sharing is caring'.  Please be mindful of your language and respect those who will call or message you about your orders.  Also note that some items might NOT be available - so manage your expectations.   They're a full functioning

#CookingQuest: Winter Melon Soup ala Didi #EnhancedCommunity

One of the things that gets ooohs and aaaahs in a chinese restaurant is the #WinterMelonSoup.   You may ask why?  Well because with this soup, restaurants use the winter melon itself as a huge bowl to serve the soup!  It's a sight to see as you'll be amazed how they were able to pull it off.  You'll see the whole winter melon, and then suddenly they're take out the top part and when you peek in, the soup is inside together with meat bits and other veggies!  My mom has tried it at home, and I remember her being nervous that the winter melon doesn't break apart, kunde sira ang presentation! So during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine, I chanced upon Theo's Farm that they have winter melon, so I ordered.  When I saw it - I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off the carving and serving the winter melon.  It actually made the preparation easier.  I had to ask my mom, and she told me to steam the winter melon to soften it.  Honestly, I don't think I can w

#CookingQuest: Chicken Stir Fry

When I was little, I used to see my mom, guama and aunt cook in the kitchen.  I found it amazing, that they have this idea in their heads on what to cook for us.  I remember my guama had small bits of plastic that when opened contained shirmp and cooked pork fat.  I asked her what it was for, and she told me that it was to add 'flavor' to the dish whatever it was.  I don't remember seeing her look at any cook book or a paper with recipe.  She just whipped them all up! When I got older, I became interested in baking - baking because I was afraid of splattering oil.  So I stuck to baking for a while.  It was only when I got married that I had to dive in and cook.  When my Panget and I were newly married, we didn't have a helper during the weekend, so I had to step up.  There were times that we didn't have a helper at all (we borrowed my mom's helper to clean), so I had to do all the cooking.  It was there that I learned to whip something up with just ing
