I'm loving the new sourdough flavors of @otter.breads ๐ฅโค๏ธ They recently introduced the Herb Trifecta which is made with garlic butter and herbs (best paired with their Honey Balsamic Dip) and NY Poppy which is made with sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and garlic. ๐ They both smell so good. These bread are delivered freshly-baked and still hot; and the smell of garlic from these bread is so inviting! This is a must-include on your menu for the holidays. My family loves to pair these with pasta, plus it's also a nice addition to the table. ๐ Otter Bread's Honey Balsamic Dip my new favorite. At first, I thought it was just another balsamic dip similar to the ones I've always had in different restaurants. I was wrong. This one is just so addicting! ๐คค Sourdough is already healthy but they made it healthier by adding poppy seeds. Here are some of the benefits of poppy seeds: rich in nutrients and antioxidants; may contain pain-relieving compounds; may boost heart and skin health; may aid digestion; may safeguard against certain illnesses; may enhance fertility. ๐ฅฐ #OtterBreads #MakeBetterDoughDecisions #SupportLocal #EverythingLocal

Chicharon, what? This Pupor from @theporkproject is better! ๐ฎ It's made all the way from Batangas and can be delivered to your doorstep here in Metro Manila. Enjoy that crispy, fatty, flavorful goodness that's best enjoyed with a nice glass of beer or given as a gift to your friends for the holidays. โบ๏ธ They also offer a new product which is the Spanish Chorizo sa Olive Oil. I enjoyed adding it to my pasta and it's also a good gift idea. ๐ #theporkproject 
I'm really very happy with Saint Roche Hooman products! ๐ Not only that these products are super effective (smells amazing, too), but you also get to help donate to the Animal Kingdom Foundation. ๐ป By effective, they helped with my hair loss problem. Now my hair feels healthier than ever! ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ I've yet to try out their lotion and soap but I'm very excited to try them because of the good reviews I saw online. ๐ You'll know how good this is just by simply checking out the ingredients. The white and gold packaging is also a plus for me. ๐คฉ Saint Roche was originally known for its organic dog shampoo and conditioner. Our pets use them, too (Saint Gertie for our cats)! Out of curiosity, some fur parents decided to try their pet's shampoo on themselves and found it very effective. They eventually requested a version for humans, and that's how Saint Roche Hooman came to be. โจ #SaintRocheHooman #madewithlove #crueltyfree 
This time, I cooked some Saikoro Steak for the family. ๐ฅฐ I used @snakeriverfarms' Gold Grade Wagyu Cubes from @meatsandpotatoes_ph for this. โค๏ธ #meatandpotatoesph #thebrandedmeatstore 
Now I understand why this gets sold out so fast and people are willing to wait to get a slot. ๐คฉ These lemon bars from @imakelemonbars are so good! ๐It also gets better after some time (we tried our best to make it last just to see the change in tasteโit really gets better). Definitely worth the wait. ๐๐ . . . . #lemonbars #celmeats #pdarkstar #dmfoodseries #discovermnl

Are you a fan of anything Korean? Then have you tried hotteok (ํธ๋ก)? These are sweet and savory Korean pancakes with filling. ๐ I got these authentic hotteok from @omnyomnyom.mnl which are absolutely delicious! ๐คค They come in different flavors but here are the ones that I tried: ๐ฅ Nutella Choco Pie Hotteok ๐ซ Soft and delectable with choco pie filling in the middle. It's like a hybrid of my favorite Korean choco pie and hotteok, made even better with Nutella and coated with oreo cookie crumbs. ๐ฅ Ssiat (Seed) Hotteok ๐ฐ Savory and sweet hotteok with sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, almond nuts, and roasted sesame seeds. I love its nutty notes and crunchy outer edge. It is the perfect brain food for me. ๐ฅ Cheese Hotteok ๐ง Indulging, soft, and very cheesy. It's made with different types of cheese that makes it sooo addicting! My perfect snack while I'm binge-watching Netflix. Check out Om~Nyom Nyom! to see more amazing feedback of their authentic hotteok. They make them fresh right before delivery. I received mine while it's hot. ๐ฅฐ Also, check out these Korean idols eating hotteok. ๋ง์์ด ๐ #OmNyomNyom 
For our date night at home, I cooked this @snakeriverfarms black grade Wagyu striploin as medium rare which I got from @meatsandpotatoes_ph ๐ฅฉ I also made mashed sweet potato on the side. ๐ I got the idea of using sweet potato because of my favorite hanger steak from @ooma_ph ๐ Wagyu always hits different. I love the marbling and delicious meat. Snake River Farm's American Wagyu is definitely Prime grade. ๐ฅฐ #meatandpotatoesph #thebrandedmeatstore
