Lady E Eats

We visited Rosario Pamanang Panlasa (formerly Josephine's) in Tagaytay. I wrote about the whole trip in my beauty, fashion, and lifestyle blog , if you'd like to read that. I also showed pictures of the restaurant, the view, and more. In this post, we will talk solely about the food. Before we sat down, we had a bit of a problem. My sister was using crutches as she has an incomplete fracture of the knee and the hostess who accompanied her suggested a table that would make her go down a set of stairs. 🤦‍♀️ Really? Fortunately, our server (whose name escapes me at the moment), was a star! He anticipated all of our needs and promptly catered to our requests. Here's what we ordered: Lumpiang Shanghai I only tasted one lumpiang Shanghai as I'm not a huge fan, so I'd rather not go deep into this. It was alright, but not for me. Sinigang na Salmon Belly sa Miso This was our favorite and the star of the table, hands down. There was a lot of salmon belly, as you c...

The Night I Craved Something I Had Already Cooked

I made this again. After years of not making this and then suddenly making it again in July, I somehow can’t stop making it. 😆 The creamy quail eggs, vegetables and shrimp that somehow keep finding their way back to my table. I wrote about this dish recently , and about how it reminds me of something my mom used to cook when I was younger. There is a little bit of childhood tucked into it for me: vegetables, shrimp, something warm poured over rice. This time, though, it gave me a different kind of memory. There was some left in the refrigerator. One night, I was tired. It was late, and normally this is exactly the sort of moment when reaching for my phone and ordering something sounds very appealing. But strangely, I wasn’t craving fast food. I was craving this . So instead of scrolling through delivery menus, I went to the kitchen and reheated the leftovers. A bowl of rice. Plenty of shrimp. Quail eggs. Vegetables. That thick, savory sauce soaking into everything. This was the ...

Sometimes You Just Need Spaghetti and….Poptato!

Sometimes dinner does not need to make sense to anyone except the person eating it. Sometimes you want spaghetti. Sometimes you want potatoes. And sometimes McDonald’s chops crinkle-cut potatoes into adorable little pieces, puts them inside what looks suspiciously like a tiny pillow box, calls them Poptato , and suddenly regular fries have competition. At least in our house. Poptato is one of the newer additions to the McDonald’s Philippines menu, arriving around the same time as the Choco Lava Puff I recently tried . And unlike the Choco Lava Puff, which left my son and me somewhere around the hmmm, it’s okay territory, Poptato was an immediate hit. Someone Chopped Up the Fries I can almost imagine the product-development meeting. Someone looked at crinkle-cut fries and thought: What if we chopped these into tiny pieces? Then someone else presumably said: Put them in a cute box. Et voilà. A new product. 😂 Except it works. The pieces are tiny and irregular, with all those litt...
