this sushi from Kume in Augusta, ME was too good to forget. SO good and they give SO much for the price 😩 we literally dogged our food in less than 10min of getting it LOL

when I tell y’all I can’t stop thinking about the poke nachos, I MEANT IT! 🤤 time to try and recreate them!

First time trying and I have to say it was AMAZING! So creamy and full and I would 100% go back again!

Hi friends!

A couple weeks ago, I had Covid, and this was my NYE meal for the night — Filipino style! A little bit of rice, palabok, kare kare, barbecue, and sautéed bokchoy!

I wanted to take this time to address my absence… oops 😅 The later half of 2021 was a rough time for me. I was going through the worst mental state I’ve ever been in, and i was miserable living life, if I’m being honest. 2022 has started, and so did my winter break from college, and I feel a little more refreshed than before!

This account was always a personal food diary to me, and I want to continue keeping it like that! Seeing all the foodies on this page is inspiring nonetheless, but comparing myself and aiming for a goal I don’t think I even need for myself might stress me out more. So, here’s to my food diary of 2022! Less stress, no formalities, just me sharing what I love!

Happy (late?) 2022! 🥂🌟

Earl Grey Milk Tea from .nyc🧋😍

first time having Honey Dew Donuts! it was okay — I will admit that the strawberry popping boba is better than Dunkin’s, so I would put my Strawberry Iced Tea over that. I also had a strawberry donut with sprinkles — also pretty okay! I think it’s fresh and made well, but nothing crazy. Not the most impressed, but I don’t hate it! I think I would have it again if I passed it, but not my favorite. 7/10 for me!🍩

I’ve been craving a lobster roll for forever, and as soon as we got to Maine, I knew I had to try a fresh Maine lobster roll! It’s a tad bit pricey, but the quality is there — a little smaller than other lobster rolls I’ve had before, but it was worth the try! You can really taste the freshness of this (although I have to say, I’m not too much of a seafood person, so I don’t notice it as much as others). It was still great to have, especially being my first time in Maine! 🦞

You’ve never had great macarons if you’ve never had them from ! 🤤⁣

I had the absolute privilege of taste-tasting macarons from the best of the best! 🥳 I’m not gonna lie to you guys … is THE standard for macarons! She had given me some definite staples as well as some unique ones like Earl Grey or Ube/Taro, but the best one to me had to have been the Salted Caramel! 😍 It literally, I am not even joking, tastes like a Ferrero Rocher chocolate — but BETTER. It is the right amount of firmness on the outside yet so so perfectly moist when you bite into the cookie! The cream for Salted Caramel was like eating the outside of a Ferrero Rocher (which you have to admit is the best part)! Earl Grey comes close second because it’s a satisfying amount sweet & earthy that just hits every target you need in a macaron! ⁣

Thank you again, ! 🥰⁣

I mean, come on now… if you walked into a Smorgasburg and saw the words “Ube Wagyu Burger,” wouldn’t you want to have a bite too? 🤤 My friends saw this and KNEW we had to try it! It was definitely juicy — the patty was crispy on the surface but melted right in your mouth when you took a bite! The bun wasn’t too heavy on the ube, but it reminded me of Ube Pandesal, and so the combo was just fine! Overall, I liked it 😋

Still can’t believe it’s been 5 years since the last time I went to … but 5 years was worth the wait! I saw pancake tacos on the menu and knew I had to try it 😅 Was definitely SO good — it was the perfect mixture of savory and sweet that I needed! My family and I definitely ordered too much, but at least I won’t have to buy dinner tonight!😂 Overall, loved it there and even being so busy, the workers were so kind! Shoutout to them for the amount of patience they have for that crowd every day!

Hey everyone! I’m running out of ideas on what to cook next...

Let me know what would be good for me to try! (And also easy enough for a beginner like me)

Filipino Barbecue, short ribs, and lobster for my family’s Memorial Day dinner!🍴💓

Hope everyone had a great day, and hopefully we can all celebrate the lives of the ones that gave their all!

I know I’ve been making a lot of ube recipes, but I swear I’ll mix it up soon (maybe)! 😅 I made it into pancake cereal to try out the new trend... but to be honest, it didn’t do the pancakes any justice. Serve it with some ube ice cream for a nice dessert! ☺️

21/05/2020

This was my first time making this and it honestly was VERY easy using this recipe! I didn’t have the grated coconut for the outer coating, but I HIGHLY suggest it! Still tastes great without it though 😋

I tried this recipe I found from a girl under the username @/twaydabae on Instagram! Honestly, I should have cooked the meat longer to make it more tender, but at least I know for next time! 😂

04/05/2020

First mistake was using a box mix... but not too bad! Watch to see how I made it!

03/05/2020
