I was walking along the stretch of Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue in Makati City the other day, when I caught sight of these delicious green mangoes exposed for everyone to see. My mouth suddenly watered like crazy that i had no choice but to stop in front of the mango vendor and buy one nice piece.
I like my mangoes green and very very sour.
If you happen to be hungry but can't leave your work, instead of munching on crackers, try Toasties!
At first glance, it looks like Sunflower Crackers. But once you open the pack, you'll see sugar on top. The name is Buttercream.
Another famous street food.
I went out for a break one day and found myself craving for Kwek Kwek. Sometimes people it call it Tukneneng or I.O. (Itlog na Orange). For those of you who are not familiar with Kwek Kwek, the name may sound exotic but the food is really not. Kwek kwek is a Quail Egg boiled into perfection, taken out of its shell, dumped into an orange batter and fried until the batter is almost a bright, crispy orange. Once done, one may choose to put it into small rectangular paper boats or just skew them into a stick before dumping them in spicy vinegar or sweet sauce.
I dropped by a friend's office and since it was a last minute visit, there wasn't any coffee available that my friend can offer me but there was a box of Orion's Custard sitting beside the coffee maker. The box was bright yellow and the photo looked delicious. So I helped myself to a piece of this soft sweet custard treat.
Jollibee's Tuna Pie, that is.
I have been eating Jollibee's Tuna Pie for almost 2 weeks now. I like it's sweet, crunchy and flaky dough as well as the Tuna that seems to be oozing out whenever I take a bite of the bread.
Wanting something for dessert, I went to Glorietta 4's Food Choices to get me some delicious cream puffs.
I hate rushing but sometimes, it cannot be helped. Since I had to rush from one meeting to another with only a few minutes to spare in between, I found myself buying a Tuna & Egg Sandwich from Mini-Stop. The yellow plastic wrapper looks very inviting, so I bought one.

I pulled over at Shell Magallanes to get some fuel for both my cariton and I. Since I only want a quick bite, I ordered a couple of bites from Jimini's.
1st stop, Jimini's Pizza Bar.
I was busy with work the other day that I never got the chance to take even a short 15-minute break and grab a bite. Good thing, our pantry was selling these mini cup cakes. Since I've been eating Inipit every time I want a light snack, I want to try other Lemon Square goodies. So I bought Lemon Square's Cheese Cake.
Whenever I'm on the road and feeling hungry but can't stop for a proper meal, I would always reach inside my bag and pull out one of my best friends- Lemon Square's Custard Inipit. These are tiny rectangular cakes with a custard filling in the middle and sprinkled with sugar on top. Inipit's taste is just pure sweet and simple.
I was in Glorietta the other day doing some important errands. It was almost dinner time so I thought of grabbing dinner at The Soup Kitchen in the building's 2nd Level. The Soup Kitchen is just beside Chicken Bacolod and near Yellow Cab Pizza. Since I want to have a light dinner, I went for the soup and my friend went for the sandwich.
Potato and Mushroom Soup -Php90.00 (half bowl)
I was pleased when I read '0% Transfat/Cholesterol' written on the package. So I bought it- Nagaraya Garlic Cracker Nuts.
When I was in college (which was way way back), my friend gave me something to munch on. I can still clearly remember my friend telling me to try this one out because it tastes interesting and delicious. As soon as I opened the bag, the strong and stinking sour smell of vinegar hit me and I almost threw the bag back to my friend. But being the adventurous person that I was (and still am), I took out a piece and eagerly put it in my mouth. To my surprise, it was really good.
That's why as soon as I saw Oishi's Beer Match in Salt & Vinegar, I instantly grabbed it from the shelf and headed to the cashier with a huge smile on my face.

It has been weeks since I've been craving for Mister Donut. Since I wasn't able to find a Mister Donut stand or a store, I opted for Dunkin Donuts and Go Nuts Donuts instead. Then as if my request was answered...finally! I found a stall at the mall.
When my brother was in grade school, he'd often have goodies in his lunch box. And one of those goodies is Hello Panda. That's why when I saw Meiji's Hello Panda, I immediately remembered my brother.
I was buying Mascovado Sugar in a convenience store just this morning when I spotted this...
Oishi Natural Potato Chips.
As promised, I bought the milk chocolate version of Pretzel's Choco Knots. It's called Milky Knots.
