[...] WHOA. It’s 4 am Sunday morning and I’m almost asleep at the keyboard. But I try one more time to add another post at Filipina Soul, when I thought of sneaking at the Philippine Blog Awards to vote for Blogger’s Choice. I was going to vote for Market Manila, but she didn’t want to, so I backed off. But then tonight I thought, no, she really deserves it. [...]

MM you don’t need an award. Your site’s 4 years of happy existence is proof enough that your readers respect and admire you, and are totally educated and entertained by this blog. It has also brought together genuine foodies from all over the globe connected by the universal love for food and enlightening exchange of thoughts. Lex and deirdregurl are right, the way you respond to us makes us feel as if we also are a valued part of your blog. Your site is really something else as it not only entices me to read your new posts but also look forward to reading the comments of the delightful apicio, lee, bettyq, sister, millet and all other readers who give their honest, from-the-heart comments.
Congratulations!

May I suggest to more recent visitors with time on their hands to review the Market Manila archives. Lots of delightful posts and guarantees an incomparable vantage point from which to take in the sweep of consistent quality and tone Marketman has maintained from day one (September 2004 was his initial post). Yes on rare occasions he vents vein bursting rants of the how can you soar with eagles when you’re surrounded with turkeys frustration but on the whole it has been four years of bracing curiosity and deep, quiet urbane sophistication, something sadly, our time and country seem to be only rarely capable of producing.

Full disclosure, an avid fan since June 2005. “Blogueur” who shall remain nameless has been pretty consistent too, I noticed.
