Lady E Eats

There are some food launches I can look at, think, Oh, that looks interesting, and then peacefully continue with my life. The McDonald’s Choco Lava Puff was not one of them. I saw the ad for McDonald’s new desserts after they phased out the Apple Pie, and that was basically it. The Choco Lava Puff had entered my brain. By that evening, I had ordered it. I mean, look at the premise: flaky chocolate pastry with warm chocolate filling inside. On paper, this sounded extremely promising. Unfortunately, the actual experience was a little more complicated. First Bite of the Choco Lava Puff Mine arrived warm, which was expected. The chocolate filling inside was still warm too, so breaking into the puff gave me that lovely molten-chocolate moment I had been expecting. And there was certainly chocolate. Quite a lot of it, actually. As photographic evidence will demonstrate, eating this thing neatly may require skills I do not possess. At some point, I had chocolate on the puff, chocol...

Soft Luxe Flavors: Tagaytay - Rosario, Pamanang Panlasa Restaurant Review

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...

Ginisang Sayote, Repolyo at Tuna (Sauteed Chayote, Cabbage and Tuna)- SOY-FREE, GLUTEN-FREE, DAIRY-FREE

I've been spending a big chunk of my day studying and learning more about health, the mind and body and how my family and I can achieve perfect health. We are eating much, much healthier now than a few months ago. You may know that I suddenly developed a soy allergy so our house is soy-free. My son has also developed several allergies (well, actually, both him and I) so I've been very careful with our meals. We mostly eat at home and we only have a few restaurants that we go to every now and then. This is a mostly allergy-friendly dish with the exception of the fish sauce. You can just use salt but I insist that you use a good broth as that will give this dish the depth in flavor that it needs. This dish is cheap and fast and can feed a lot of hungry mouths. These were all leftover ingredients in our fridge that I put together in one meal. I had one organic chayote, half a small organic cabbage and one tuna steak. As usual, I don't put the amounts of each ingredient...
