In a lunch gathering at work, someone theorized that most rice eating folks (me included) don’t like the crunchiness of bread (think dutch crunch, baguettes, or the artisan variety) because we are used to the softness of the rice melding with the flavor of the ulam.

I particularly like my egg salad sandwich on white bread, not toasted, edged removed.

It’s hard to improve on the classic BLT. I do, on occasion, put some avocado that gives the sandwich a much needed creamy addition. Which makes it a BLAT.

Next time MM, instead of using mayonnaise and mustard, try some avocado slices in your BLT. Absolutely delicious!!!

I love Johnsonville brand sausages, specially their Brats,,,my all time favorite. I buy this instead of regular hotdogs.

Hi Mr.MM! This is off topic as well. Went to Cebu for an overnight visit. Ate lunch at Zubuchon & experienced an Anthony Bourdain moment,” best pig ever”!! The dinuguan, pancit & sinigang were so yummy too!! The kamias shake was the best! Went back to Zubuchon for dinner!!!! Fortunately, the crew were not the same so it wasn’t so embarrasing! LOL.

Carla, one is a bit young… but perhaps a sunset cruise on islands bancas, or a trip to the beach, or in town a visit to the Sto Nino Basilica, Magellan’s cross (beside each other) or a visit to the Jesuit House, the oldest house still standing in Cebu… But really, at that age, not sure what might be appropriate… To eat, of course Zubuchon. Then perhaps Cafe Elysa, Little Saigon, Big Bangkok, Banhri, a cafe, Maya, Tavolata, Giuseppe’s, etc.

Hi everyone :) this is a bit off topic. I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations for places to visit (or eat at!) in cebu. It’s my daughters first time here and we want to take her around. She’s one so she won’t remember much, but I would like to think that she’ll enjoy the pictures when she’s older. Thanks!

Shiko-chan, if you are based in Manila and willing to brave a sea of overly eager members, you might want to head to s&r for their 5-day sale which starts today until the 17th… For good sausages + more…
