Those having a sweet tooth will sure find this Custard Roll an early Christmas gift as this cake is made with chiffon cake with a yummy yema custard filling. It is then embraced with more yema custard that you'll find it one great tasting roll inside out.

I simply adore Tinapayan's Red Velvet cake and I'm glad they also also have a Red Velvet Roll. Just the same goodness - red velvet cake with cream cheese as filling and more to "wrap" the same "creamy and cheesy" goodness around the cake.

But if you're out to have the tried and tested specialties, then the Mango Roll is one that won't fail. It is made with mango chiffon cake - light and fluffy chiffon cake infused with the essence of mangoes; then filled with a mixture of whipping cream and chopped fresh mangoes then "hugged" with more whipped cream.

Tinapayan's Strawberry Roll will bring a festive and a more "Christmassy" dessert to your table. Made with strawberry chiffon cake with strawberry butter cream filling and topping. And they are using fresh pureed strawberries - you'll really taste the difference!

And finally, Orange Roll with Tinapayan's signature orange chiffon cake and fresh orange curd filling. A whipping cream topping finishes this citrus dessert masterpiece.

Mama's Kitchen and Sinamay House in Arevalo

A stones throw away from the plaza of La Villa de Arevalo is an ancestral house where one can find not only good pasalubong items but also a look into the past of the district. Known as the Sinamay House , this well preserved ancestral house is an attraction not only in the outside but also what it houses inside. A collection of what the past like is housed in the two storey edifice which also acts like a museum of sorts. Sinamay is simply known as abaca by most and, here, a variety of products made from this fiber can be found. I remember watching a feature on tv wherein the owner proudly showed a framed letter signed by the late Princess of Wales, Diana, showing her appreciation of the handkerchief she was given as a gift coming from this very shop. But the attraction I am most familiar with are the chewies and crunchies made by Mama's Kitchen. Attractively packed in boxes showing their current flavours and variety, this is among the better...

Ultimate Ilonggo Favorite: KBL Kadyos, Baboy, Langka

K.B.L. or Kadyos, Baboy, Langka is the ultimate favorite dish of most Ilonggos. It is also one of the most missed native dishes as kadyos and the souring ingredient, batwan , are hard to find when outside of the Ilonggo region. Basically, it is boiled/stewed pork dish owing its "deliciousness" to the combination of the soft and tender pork, the tamed sourness of batwan and the malinamnam na sabaw . One of the "secrets" of the malinamnamn na sabaw , is the fact that the pork, whether just the plain meat or pata (hocks) are first grilled or broiled. This gives the broth a rather smoky taste that makes it more appetizing.. Learn how to make the Ilonggo dish KBL (Kadyos, Baboy, at Langka) with the recipe below.

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...
