SEAN'S FOOD TRIP: KENSINGTON PEKING RESTURANT

Peking Duck

Duck wrap



Sean had these when his mum was in town.  They were joined by his aunt and cousin.  They had these Chinese food at Kensington Peking Resturant.  He liked the food there.  Ambiance and service is on the average if he has to rate it and it was a bit pricey.  Some reviews about this place were not that favorable in some sites, but then again it got locals and regulars who often go and dine there.  We think they should try it out esp those duck lovers... anyways, food preferences and experiences differ from the others.

ON FOOD TRIP: BLACKBEARD'S SEAFOOD ISLAND






A late post but sharing anyways.

Out to have dinner with friends sometime March of this year.  Original plan was to have it at Vikings, Seaside.  The thing was we got lost and we walked back and forth along seaside only to found it at the other end of the line of restaurants there.  Tired from work, travel and walking we indeed reached the place.  The scenario, it was on a weekend and we don't have reservations.  All of us were hungry already at that time so we just settle to have dinner at Blackbeard's seafood Island instead.  We had the Boodle feast, Magellan's Landing and Dagupan's Pride.  We also ordered Rockefeller Oyster and Urdaneta Ensalata.  I have been to this place before and tried their other branches too.  And i will say the same thing still... no doubt the food is great... It was just the service that is not okay.

ON FOOD TRIP: J. CO DONUTS & COFFEE








Our kiddos newest craze!  Sorry it was a bumpy ride home but good thing it still reached the kids in good shape.   Mr. Green Tea and Green Tease are mine and obviously the kids won't fancy.  Oreology and Strawberry Caviar are definitely for Nicole and the rest would be for Kurt to indulge!  But of course my Mom and Sis will have their share.

Remember when getting them, they are cheaper by the dozen.

FRUIT OF THE DAY: MANDARIN ORANGES



Fresh sweet and juicy Mandarin Oranges are the fruits for today.  We are enjoying fruits available this season.  Have you had any fruit lately?

ON FOOD TRIP: NORTH PARK SNACKS


Our favorite juice from here is the Honey Lemon.






Beef Wanton soup

Their Siopao



Fried bean skin and mushroom

Almond jelly and mixed fruits

Snacks/dinner before watching movie with friends.  We wanted something hot so we decided to have noodles at North Park.  I am missing fried bean skin from Singapore.  North Park got this fried bean skin and mushroom so i tried it.  Would have tasted better if it is kind of sizzling.  We were full and ready for the movie.

ON FOOD TRIP: T.G.I. FRIDAY'S

Dinner with the best people i know and we headed out at TGIF, ATC (Thank God It's Fridays) on a Wednesday!  One of my all time favorite restaurants.  Always, loving the ambiance.  Reminded me when it used to be an after work hang out spot in Makati, and of my old friends.  Well anyways, tonight, we had the ultimate dinner!  Keeping records for the blog baby!

Friday's Ball Park Nacho
Mounded tortilla chips covered with cheese sauce, picadillo meat, pica de gallo and salsa.
My friend, had it for the first time, was exhilarated with the whole thing and said the best she had ever tasted in nachos.  I shared these tenders in platter with one of my friends ( i forgot how this called, darn!) and paired it with rice on the side.
 




Another friend had this Jack Daniel's Ribs.  She said she had the best ribs and muttered "It's damn so yummy."  She was holding her knife and fork when she said that.  That moment made my night,  I can't help laughing as i picture her having said that.
Jack Daniel's Ribs.  A rack of baby back ribs cooked until it is fall-off-the-bone-tender.  Seasoned with Cajun spices, fire grilled, glazed with famous Jack Daniel's sauce & served with crispy seasoned fries.




Sorry the photo above was blurry.  Probably caused by one of their legendary cocktails below....

Classic Mojito.  Shake things up Cuban style! Rum, fresh mint, cane sugar and soda.

Darn drinks! I forgot how this (non-alcohol) one called but i tried a sip and it was awesome!

I love going out with friends. We always make moments! A night full of laughter and our tummies full!

We rate this rated this 5 out of 5!
In here It's always FRIDAY!
Always a good time!

FRUIT OF THE DAY: RIPE PAPAYA



Look at what Sean got from the market.  It's a ripe papaya!  He wanted to have it just sliced while i wanted it blended.  Sean got a thing with blenders and the like that vibrates that i would not understand. LOL!  Anyways, blended or sliced, this is awesome!

SEAN'S FOOD TRIP: STRAWBERRIES AND MANDARIN ORANGE



It is Winter time down under and these strawberries are in season baby!  They soooooo juicy and sweet!  One Mandarin orange left after Sean pigged out the rest of 'em.  Gotta enjoy 'em while in season Baby!

SEAN COOKS: BAKED CRABMEAT PATTIES





Sean made some Crab meat patties out of the fresh crab meat he got from the market, eggs, bread crumbs, spring onions, tomato sauce, salt and pepper to taste.  Trying to avoid frying, he chose to just baked it instead.  Yummy!
