Zita, yes, I have several recipes for fish fillets cooked en papillote or in parchment paper in the archives, like here and here. Enjoy!

MM,

since you are in a diet, have you tried making fish parcels and having salad with them?

MM! I can imagine it tastes like the grilled kebabs we get at Hossein’s and Cafe Med! Yummy! Siempre, very Pinoy to use the garlic sauce/yoghurt as a “sabaw” to the ulam! Also good with couscous ‘no, MM? Nakakagutom!

Looks good AND healthy :)I love grilled veggies! I’ve been meaning to try fennel…Do you know I have seen it in Santi’s, the Salcedo Market, and…Landmark! Of course, like a foolish girl I did not check the price. After your last post I’m sure there was some discrepancy! Next time I will check…and report to you!

My mom, and now I as well, make a “chicken steak tagalog”, just like bistek but using chicken breast. Trust me when I say that I am the last person to be touting the wonders of chicken breast, but it’s really good!

Mikel, Francois Payard was the pastry/dessert chef at Daniel for a while before he went onto his own place on Lexington Ave. I really like Daniel Boulud’s restaurants, did a post on one a year and a half ago… My sister lives nearby to Payard’s so we head there often for hot croissants early mornings when we get to visit New York every few years. I think both of them, Boulud and Payard, before that were at Le Cirque at the same time, an earlier place to be seen, though I thought their food was sometimes iffy, and Sirio, the Maitre d’ was a bit officious, but then again, I was quite young then, emaciated-looking and probably from the wrong continent when compared to his regular guests…thanks for the tips on foie, I will get it right some day…it’s just costly to keep trying or experimenting… And yes, I too, love the pistachio macaroons at Laduree…
