Nathaniel's Lasagna is goooooood!!

Last year, I saw an IG post of Jin of a lasagna that she ordered.  My MIL and BIL asked me to order a pasta dish for our New Year's Eve dinner,  and I asked them if they wanted lasagna.   I was so glad they said yes because I really wanted to try Nathaniel's lasagna.

The transaction was very easy.  I sent him a text message and called him right after and that was that.  I asked him first if he could still accommodate my order since it was kind of last minute, I ordered it just before Christmas.  He said yes, and I was so relieved!  Had he said no, I would need to look for another home cook!  Hahha..

So on December 31 - I drove to his place in New Manila and it was Nathaniel himself that handed me my tray of lasagna.  I put it in the passenger side of the car and the aroma was pure torture!  It smelled soooooooo good!  I really had to control myself - no joke.  I kept taking peeks and opening the foil cover.  You would laugh when you saw me that day.

This is what the lasagna looked it.  This was the only decent image I got to take because we ate them FAST!



I really liked his lasagna because it was really meaty, meaning I could taste the chunks of meat and mushroom.  I felt that the meat wasn't scrimped.  It had just the right amount of layers and bechamel sauce (that's what they call it right?).  I loved it instantly with my first bite and honestly, it changed my appreciation of lasagna.  It wasn't dry at all.

I made sure to save myself a portion as leftover.  So I can enjoy it again!  Hahaha.. I kept it in an airtight container and ate it a week after the new year - it still tasted the same.  It may have tasted even better as I remembered it.

To be honest, it was quite pricey - but with the first bite, I understood why it cost P1,800.00 a tray (good for 10pax).  The quality of the meat is good, very flavorful and packed!  And you know me, I wouldn't mind paying as long as it's good food - and this one is really good!  And I think it was worth every penny.  If you like lasagnas - you must try this!!

Thank you Nathaniel for taking my order and for making this really really really good lasagna.  I'm sure to order again!!

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 ...

#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 s...

#LeeKumKeePremiumSoySauce & #ShaoXingWine - my FAVORITE ingredients this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine!

We've been on lockdown for a month now.  And what is it that I realized?  Quality ingredients are very important when it comes to cooking for my family's meals.  I realized that there were ingredients that i took for granted before this lockdown.  Since I'm cooking everyday, I have played favorites with certain brands. Introducing, my FAVORITE lockdown cooking ingredients! LEE KUM KEE PREMIUM SOY SAUCE This has got to be my FAVORITE kitchen staple.  The taste is very clean and stable.  I say clean because comparing it to our local soy sauce brands - this tastes really different!  It's not very salty and the taste is - really different!  I have decide to buy this in the liter packages because I use so much of it in my cooking.  A little goes a long way when marinading and when cooking.  I say the taste is stable, because the product doesn't need a quick shake to combine the flavors - you won't see ANY form of residue at the bo...
