6-9-2015 Food of the Day: Ormoc's Queen Pineapple

When it comes to pineapples, the Queen variety from Ormoc is among the most popular.  My mom who was born in Ormoc is so proud about this sweet and juicy pineapple variety. I had my fill when we spent 3 days in Ormoc in the past month and I truly enjoyed. No wonder many people buy pineapples in Ormoc and bring it to nearby cities and provinces.

Have you tried the famous Queen Pineapple of Ormoc???

Food Question of the Week: When was the last time you had Ice Candy?

Image
I remember back when I was a kid and ice cream is too expensive, I always love to eat Ice Candy! It is one of my favorite desserts especially during summer.  There was a time that one piece was sold at 50 centavos.  Recently, I was able to buy some at Isidra Comfort Cantina for 15 pesos each. I was like someone starved for food that I finished the 2 sticks in just a couple of minutes while driving. How about you, when was the last time you had Ice Candy? How much was the cheapest Ice Candy that you ever bought?

Pungko Pungko - Cebuano Foodie Must-try

Image
You cannot say you are a Cebuano foodie until you partake and enjoy the offerings of your local Pungko-Pungko stall. Pungko means squat in the Cebuano language.  The Pungko-Pungko name was attached to vendors who walk to sell food and when they find interested eaters they usually look for a clean corner and squat or "pungko" to eat.  Now, most Pungko-Pungko suki do not need to look for their favorite vendor because there are now in many places in the city that are known for this type of "cuisine".  The popular hotspots for pungko-pungko are the stalls in the Fuente area at the back of Sampaguita Suites, Redemptorist Church Area near Foodarama, and Cebu Doctor's University area beside McDonald's.

But at sixteen, life interrupted that path in  the most unexpected way. Jake was diagnosed with leukemia. For any teenager, that kind of news can feel overwhelming — a sudden pause on plans, school, an d the future itself. Hospital rooms replaced classrooms. Treatments replaced routines. And for a while, everything else faded into the background except one thing: survival. Yet even in the hardest moments, hope found a way in. A Wish That Changed Everything Through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Jake was given something powerful — not just an ex perience, but a reason to believe again. His wish? To experience life in aviation. What followed was nothing short of extraordinary. Jake trained at a real flight school in Malaysia. He learned from professionals. He sat in a c ockpit not as a visitor, but as someone trusted to understand,...
