Taste the goodness of Rgies Delicacies

BUTTERSCOTCH business started in a small rented residence at Alta Tierra Village, Jaro, Iloilo City in 1985. Out of cooking hobby, Butterscotch was introducted to friends and relatives as samples, gifts and pasalubongs. Their positive feedbacks inspired the Couple to do business in selling this product. Thus, the backyard industry for butterscotch was initiated. Business commenced by displaying the product to some outlet stores in Iloilo City.

Eventually, it catered not only BUTTERSCOTCH but YEMA as well, to some establishments with its own labels in the two products. This has guided every aspect of their Butterscotch/Yema business for more than 19 years. The solid and quality foundation, that has supported its products and withstood the time has led the couple to register their business on March 2003

under the name, RGIES DELICACIES

Because they wanted to make some variations on the traditional Butterscotch with cashew, they decided to try experimenting with Mango Chips. After many different trials with the mixtures, they finally came up with the perfect one. The BUTTERSCOTCH with MANGO CHIPS became a hit both here and abroad.

As time went by, they also have developed the BUTTERSCOTTI, a kind of biscuit that is finely topped with cashew nuts. It is usually referred to be the biscuit version of Butterscotch.

After seeing the good results the Butterscotch with Mango Chips has yielded, they decided to try again with another flavor. They experimented again and eventually, released to the market the BUTTERSCOTCH with ChocoOats..

A tinapay called MONAY

Monay is a well-known Filipino bread and based on Wikipedia , it's the Filipinized version of the Spanish bread pan de monja or bread of the monks . I had to laugh it out upon reading that entry from Wiki. Coming from Western Visayas in which monay is more than a bread based on local dialect, it's hard not to. And here's why... A post from PinoyExchange forum "I had this funny experience a few years back when I was in Aklan. I bought a homemade peanut butter and I was craving to eat it so I immediately ran to a nearby bakery with a friend to buy some bread. I was hoping to buy pandesal but I saw this large "monay" and I said to the tindera " Miss magkano ang hot monay mo ?" My friend suddenly laughed and so did the tindera. I repeated it saying " Yan monay mo nga miss kung magkano and bibilhin ko ." They again laughed and I was left wondering why. Then on our way back with my "hot monay" I asked my friend why did they laughed...

Easy Century Tuna Recipes

If you're looking for simple, easy and delicious Century Tuna recipes online, congratulations, you've found it right here! How about spicy tuna sisig or tuna sinigang ? Maybe stir fried tuna with pickles or just yang chow fried rice . I love Century Tuna from its flakes in oil variety, the spicier the better, but when I discovered the versatility of its solid variant, it became an obsession. At first I was just into the usual tested recipes; pasta and sandwich filling, but then it got simpler – I just eat it straight from the can! Usually with a piece of bread or an apple. I just add a few drops of vinegar to spice it up a bit. Then came the experiments. Yup I got tired of that habit that one day, I decided to test my skills in the kitchen. Serendipity, you might call it yet most of them turned into good recipes that I have shared now and then. Satisfying my Palabok cravings had me experiment on this recipe on the spot. With Century Tuna in lieu of the us...

Sooo Pinoy in Davao City at Binggoy's Lounge

Aside from durian, another fruit that brings Davao to mind is pomelo or suha and for the Ilonggos, it is known as kabugaw.

Ube brazo de mercedes from Lapaz Bakeshop

It was just an impromptu food trip in and around Lapaz market a few months ago when I discovered this ube brazo de mercedes from the Lapaz Bakeshop. I got to taste and take home this ube dessert that later on became a staple at home. Lapaz Bakeshop sits on the corner of Tinda Lapaz right across Grand Dame Hotel. A restaurant named Lapaz Kitchenette was the previous locator of the space and it was famous for it's PhP59 buffet . The bakeshop is among the bigger "small town" bakeshops in the city with it's wide range of breads, pastries and cakes plus shorts snack items. It even has branches in some towns in Iloilo including one in my hometown, Sta. Barbara. It was a quick side trip made by Sir Eugene that time that introduced me to this ube variant of brazos. He bought a few slices of this dessert and brought it inside Madge Cafe inside the market. It was perfect with the cafe's native coffee and the filling is somewhat like ube halaya. The meringue is jus...
