Italian food has managed to take worm its way into the hearts of foodies all over the world. Each country may have their own food specialties, but no matter where you go, you can be sure to find at least a few good Italian restaurants where even the locals would gladly go to and forgo their usual favorite regional fares.

The Philippines is no exception to this, with plenty of Italian restaurants and eateries to be found in Metro Manila. From fast food style joints serving watered-down “Italian cuisine” to small little heard of authentic Italian ristorantes, a trip to Manila will surely not leave you wanting if it's Italian food you're craving.

If its to the mall you're headed and don't feel like stepping out into the heat just to get a slice of pizza, you can look for the usual Italian restaurant chains like Italianni's, A Venetto Pizzeria, The Old Spaghetti House, Don Henrico's, Amici, and Joey Pepperoni. Just make sure that your expectations are realistic before entering these joints since they are not known for serving the most authentic Italian cuisine in the city. As for price range, the list above starts from most expensive to most affordable.

(those who have dined in the original restaurant in Boracay will surely love to visit this branch), Casa Nostra in Pasong Tamo (not to be confused with the now closed Cosa Nostra in Malate), and Chef Massimo Veronesi's Va Bene Pasta Deli in Makati, and the L'Incontro Ristorante Italiano (also) in Makati City.

There are lots of other good Italian restaurants in the city, but make sure that you do your research before hazarding a visit to one because with all the good places you can dine, the last thing you want is to waste a meal in some watered down hole where they serve sweet spaghetti and soggy pizza.

A Taste of Thailand

March 1, 2023 By Ina

I am lucky to be among those whose passions in life happen to complement each other perfectly – food and travel.

To be honest, I do not know which I love more, since each trip is an opportunity to taste something new and delectable, and each food destination an excuse to set out and experience new things. Which is which doesn’t really matter though, because in the end each new adventure allows me to indulge myself.

Thailand is one of the places that I decided to visit mostly because of the food. That’s not to say that I didn’t enjoy the friendly people, which the country boasts as being one of their most precious attraction, but the truth was that I was more interested in strolling up and down alleys looking for the street food that celebrated chefs like Anthony Bourdain (Yes, No Reservations got me excited about Thailand) and David Thompson raved about. True enough, their excellent palates did not disappoint.

If you do decide to go to Thailand to get a taste of authentic Thai street food, I would say th

at my list of must try food would include anything with noodles. The Thai have perfected the art of cooking noodles

and the top two I tried there during my trip include the omelet-topped pad Thai and the egg noodle soup called ba mee nam. You should also try the popular traditional salad called the som tam (Don’t order if you can’t take spicy!!!). The som tam is a spicy salad made with shredded unripe papaya, and as with most things Thai is really fragrant due to the basil.

Of course, being on a limited 3-day trip, I’m sure I wasn’t able to try a lot of excellent dishes.When I go back, and indeed I am, I’m definitely staying much longer. Looking forward to sampling more food and maybe even go to see Ayuthaya.

There is nothing as important as feeding our children. Yet food for kids isn’t exactly something that you see on TV everyday. In fact there are only a few people writing about it.

Enter Annabel Karmel. She is a household name in the UK. She is an inspirig person. She is not just a cook, she is also a mother which is why each of her recipes have been carefully tested against the best possible guage: her own kids.

Annabel Karmel studied at the Cordon Bleu school. It was the loss of her first child, Natasha, that she began to write. She believes that the one element that any parent can control that will help determine their health is what they eat. She began to create recipes that her son would enjoy eating yet still meet his dietary needs. The result: her first published book in 1991 titled The Complete Baby and Toddler Meal Planner.

By no means though is she a homely, matronly looking mom. She may have 3 kids but she has kept physically active. She is a fun person who enjoys skiing, tennis and roller blading. She is also a musician and singer. In fact she has performed with Liberace, Denis Waterman, Queen Elizabeth and Boy George. The instrument she has performed on is the harp, though she also plays violin. She has also had a recording career.

To date she has several books under her belt. Her recipes are all kid friendly and are fun to make. If you have a fussy eater, try some of her recipes.

She has also been seen on TV as the Foodie Godmother on the Richard and Judy Show, BBC1’s Saturday Kitchen and BBC2’s Working Lunch.

Food and wine festivals are always worth writing about – who wouldn’t want to go to one? If you are in the Malibu area, or you plan on going there in the next several weeks, then you ought to know that the 4th Annual Malibu Calabasas Food and Wine Festival is going to be held on the 19th of June.

It has been described as the celebration of food, wine, and all things Southern Californian! If that isn’t enticing, then I don’t know what is. The location of the festival itself is something worth visiting – the very beautiful Calabasas. Of course, there are activities that will entice anyone who is even slightly into food.

Live cooking demos by celebrity chefs are the highlights of the festival. This year, some really popular names are going to grace the festival: Joachim Splichal, TV Chef Tommy Tang and world champion Chef Frania Mendivil.

Aside from the celebrity chefs, other entities will be participating in the food and wine festival. How does more than a hundred wineries and breweries coming together sound? Various food and wine vendors will also showcase their wares on the said date.

Jamie Oliver Set To Conquer Hong Kong

February 28, 2023 By Ina

jamies_italian_250x300Jamie Oliver has gone a long way, and is now one of the most popular celebrity chefs all over the world. He is not one to sit on his laurels, though. Although he has had much success with regards to cookbooks and TV shows, he wants to expand his reach. The news is that he is going to Asia to introduce his line of Italian restaurants. He will be starting in Hong Kong.

Jamie is no stranger to the restaurant business. He has, in fact, a chain of restaurants well established in the UK. Hong Kong and Singapore are the target countries, with six restaurants in total. Dubbed Jamie’s Italian, the restaurant line’s strength is in its quality of food and fair prices. In fact, the press release for the line says “At Jamie’s restaurants, you will often find a blue-collar worker, a student, and the chairman of a blue-chip company side by side having a meal.”

I am not sure about what is “fair,” though. From what I hear, you would have to shell out about HK$300 for an average 3-course meal. That is not something that a blue-collar worker or a student can pay (unless he’s got rich parents)! What do you think – would you pay this much for a meal at Jamie’s Italian?

In any case, the restaurants are not going to be ready for business till next year. If you really want to eat at Jamie’s Italian, I guess you better start saving now.
