6-28-2015 Food of the Day:Nilung-ag na Saging

One of the things that I considered a comfort food is Nilung-ag na Saging (Boiled Bananas).  There are just days that I want to eat boiled bananas and I can probably finish 5 in one sitting. I prefer my bananas to be semi-ripe.  I usually eat this on a lazy afternoon on a weekend.  It is also one of my favorite Holy Week and beach foods.  I know a lot of people love to dip this to some local anchovies (ginamos) especially the unripe ones.  Boiled Bananas is also a good alternative to rice when on a diet.

How about you, how many boiled bananas can you eat in one snack? What is your favorite comfort food?

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?

I have been to many buffets and I was a bit taken aback at first of the name of hotel's buffet. Having heaven in the buffet name raised my expectations. After enjoying a fantastic meal, all my skepticism were erased. Taste of heaven became instant favorite because of its price, selection, and abundance of seafood dishes.
