Happy 20th Super Catch Inc! Thank you for Seaking products!!

I attended the 20th Anniversary of Superb Catch Inc, the company behind the Seaking brand.  I must say that when I entered the venue - the feel and vibe of the place was so positive and happy.  Of course, it was a joyous occasion but I felt the sincerity of the celebration.  Celebrating 20 years is a huge achievement.

It was there that we were introduced to the Big 4 - the Uy siblings.  These for siblings had a dream and that dream came into a reality because of hardwork and determination.

Uy siblings from left to right: Jennifer Uy Ampon (President), Shirley Ng Cha (Corporate Secretary), Nancy Uy Alipio (Corporate Treasurer), and Jeffrey Uy (Chief Operating Officer)

It was an emotional celebration - the eldest amongst them Jennifer shed a few tears while introducing their company to us.  To be honest, I don't know her personally - but I felt the sincerity in her words, I too got teary eyed too because I felt the pride and at the same time humility with her words.  She was really so proud of what they have been doing and proud of where there are now.  Their story is truly inspiring, the video they showed us showcased them as to who they really are.  They started from humble beginnings, they poured in their heart, blood, sweat and tears into the business - and look where they are now - 20 years later.  I am not related but I really felt so proud of them - you can see it in their expressions.  They were sincerely happy and I am grateful to be part of their celebration.  I made sure to share each of their hands and gave them my congratulations.  They're so down to earth - and I think that is why they're so successful to.

During the celebration - we were served with their newest seafood line, the Keta Salmon Line:





Again, a huge CONGRATULATIONS and KIONG HEE to Superb Catch Inc.!  Your story is truly INSPIRING!  Thank you for bringing Seaking to our homes and dining table.  I am very grateful for your dream because you shared something healthy, sanitized and delicious bangus and keta salmon to serve our loved ones.  Having good quality seafood is within reach - because of your dream.  THANK YOU, UY siblings!


Seaking Marks 20th Anniversary with Wild Alaskan Keta Salmon Line

Superb Catch Inc., the company behind trusted seafood brand Seaking celebrated its 20th anniversary at Makati Shangri-la Hotel last Nov. 8, 2019.

The brand was started by the Uy siblings two decades ago. Jennifer, Jeffrey, Nancy, and Shirley sold bangus (milkfish) from their father's fishpond. They would debone the fish at home and haul them to supermarkets on their own. Armed with only a small-startup capital, the Seaking brand was literally built by their own hands. Through their hard work, resilience, and determination, Seaking has become an industry leader and a household name. 

In order to ensure the highest product standards, Seaking has continuously adhered to the following principles:
  1.  1. Fresh frozen seafood
  2.  2. Strict production process
  3.  3. International food standard approved operation

Fish is carefully selected, deboned, marinated/smoked, packed/labeled, and vacuum sealed. They follow a first in, first out policy so the fish is always fresh. 

What started as a frozen milkfish business has developed into a full blown seafood line which includes Cream Dory, Squid, Bottled Bangus, and their newest offering -- their Wild Alaskan Keta Salmon line.

Seaking brings us the best and healthiest type of salmon all the way from Alaska. Farmed salmon are grown in crowded fish pens and sea cages. They are fed pellets made with chemicals and are considered genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Wild salmon are born in rivers and spend their adult lives in the ocean. They feed on fresh shrimp, crab, and krill. Wild Alaskan Keta Salmon is one of  the best sources of seafood protein and naturally occuring Omega 3. Omega 3 can help improve heart health, enhance the immune system, and even reduce the risk of diabetes. Seaking offers four (4) cuts of Wild Alaskan Keta Salmon: Chunks, Belly, Steak, and Slab. Seaking is the first wild salmon retailer in the Philippines.
Seaking products can be found in more than 1,500 supermarkets, restaurants, and hotel chains in the Philippines. Their products are also exported to countries like Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and USA among others. From a home-based operation back in 1999, Seaking has grown to encompass a 20,000sqm processing plant which will be fully operational in January 2020.

“As the great Walt Disney said, all our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them. We intend to continue delivering quality products and through our passion we have not only captured the hearts of the Filipinos but their trust and confidence in the Seaking brand,” Jennifer Uy Ampon shares.

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
