General Tso’s Chicken »
This is a very popular Chinese dish but I have never tasted it until I tried to cook it at home. I have eaten in many Chinese restos here but I have never seen this on any menus or maybe I just didn’t browse long enough to find it. Anyways, it is delicious as [...]
Lemon Chicken »
Sweet, tangy delicious lemon chicken that finally, FINALLY my family likes. I haven’t cooked lemon chicken for a long time because well, my family doesn’t like the lemon sauce -it’s too sour they say. But it was a different recipe that I was using before so I thought I’d give it a try again using [...]
Fish in Szechuan Sauce »
This is my first time to make this dish and quite surprise that it’s easy to make considering how delicious it is- hot and spicy-delicious!!

Yang Chow Fried Rice »
Yang Chow fried rice is practically a meal by itself – it has some meat, veggies and carbs but it’s more satisfying to eat with delectable dishes that one normally orders along with it in a Chinese restaurant. I don’t really make this often at home, it’s too much work compared to my favorite garlic [...]

Taho (Silken Tofu with caramel syrup and tapioca Balls) »
I love taho since I was a kid; I love watching the taho vendor precisely scoop silky bean curd into plastic transparent cups (he does it with 2-3 cups at a time) and watched how beautifully and deliciously the golden dark caramel syrup covered the white velvety tofu…oh, yum! (How I wish I can capture [...]

Rhum Chicken »
I love easy recipes, whenever I see one, I save it and try it as soon as I possibly can and if it’s really good, I make it again and again and when I’m really happy about it, I can’t help but share it too :). Like this dish, I saw this on Ju’s blog, [...]
Pancit Canton ( Kulinarya Cooking Club) »
It’s noodles for May’s Kulinarya Cooking Club theme. Caroline and I are the hosts for this month and we’ve decided on pancit. When you say pancit (noodles) in Filipino, it usually refers to pancit bihon the most common and popular but there are several pancit or noodle dishes in Filipino cuisine: pancit canton, sotanghon (mung [...]
