I ABSOLUTELY love #ramen So I was excited to receive an invitation to have lunch at the #menyakokoroph Kushi & Highball in the heart of San Juan City. Then I was told it served a brothless ramen. I said, “Whut?!” Sounds daft, I know, but apparently Menya Kokoro is the pioneer of authentic mazesoba in the country and this soup-less ramen, I was told, has been giant hit in Japan. #mazesoba #SomethingLikeLife #JapaneseCuisine #JapaneseFood #happytummy

Like Pinoys, the Chinese pay particular importance to dishes with some heft (thus carbo-loaded and goooood!) and are always meant to be shared with families, friends, or co-workers. #KnowMore about how we Pinoys celebrate w/ plates of delectable Chinese food in the comment below. #SomethingLikeLife #celebrations #happytummy #Philippines

Farro, with edamame, kale, tomatoes, avocado, and my favourite soy sauce/lemon juice/miso dressing. Just as delicious as it looks.

When I'm not reporting on the travel business, I'm in the kitchen, cooking. Here's my vinegar-only #adobo w/c turns brown after slowly simmering over a low fire. Then pan-fry the next day, and eat w/ hot rice! Yum. #food #happytummy #food #PhilippinesCuisine
