Hi, Marketman! Belated Blessed Birthday! In behalf of my mom, Vilma Joson of Masigla Products, I would like to appreciate your kind words and generous review of our tomato sweets and jelly. It is such a lift to discover people like you who care enough (and do it so joyfully) to document your market experiences for the benefit of others. I enjoy your blog and recognize the good taste you put into it as well as graciously share! Maybe someday, we can send you more samples specially the new products we are developing?

We hope you can make it to the â€œLikha ng Central Luzonâ€ Food Fair early October also to be held at the 5th floor of Mega Mall. We intend to present our dried oyster mushrooms (also in powdered form!), soy-mushroom coffee and sesame brittle. We have used the mushrooms for pasta, tempura and to flavor mixed vegetables. The sesame brittle is a hit specially among kids! These are thin caramelized sesame cookies. I also tried sprinkling the sesame brittle bits as substitute for nuts/cereals in giving my fruits and ice cream preparations some crunch.

May the Lord abundantly nourish you with His love, joy and peace!

The food looks appetizing and very yummy! Your wife did a very good job in choosing CIBO to do the catering for your birthday.

What an incredible meal, WOW!!! Now there’s a dinner worthy of you, Marketman. Kudos to Mrs. MM and The Kid for planning it! It couldn’t have been more perfect — dinner by Cibo di M, fine wine from friends, desserts by you, and birthday cake by Marta! And having Margarita Fores as a guest, to boot, must’ve made this a most unforgettable birthday for you. And I have to say, you deserve no less. :-)

Happy birthday, Marketman! I’d like you to know that reading your blog teaches me new things and makes me happy. Along the way my family and I have tried some of your recipes and restaurants you’ve recommended, and there’s always something to look forward to. I still haven’t bought myself a fishpan, but maybe when I get married I will, hahaha. Cheers, and may you always be surrounded by great food, great company, laughter and music!

And for my next birthday, maybe I’ll pay a visit to Pepato…
