I hope the next meet will be the same time that I will be in Manila. I love to eat and cook. You seem to have a great community here that shares the same love for food.

Everytime I go home to Manila I pretty much spend most of my time trying out every restaurant in sight.

That was an unforgettable gathering at Galileo MM! Thank you so much for the exciting and unique food experience, everything and everyone just seemed to gel together.I especially loved the veggies and the anchovies. We really liked your A#5 too, it’s not the usual oily, sticky ensaymada. It’s great to finally be able to put a voice and an image to my daily reading of MM. Thanks too, Mrs.MM.

Enjoyed reading EVERYTHING about the “Eyeball” get together.It was a vicarious experience perhaps not only for me but for others who missed the event but still wanted to be “part” of this “community” of foodies.
You are still a “mystery” for us who have not met you and that makes you and your website more interesting aside from the interesting articles that you put in. Thanks so much for being so unselfish and thorough in your search for the best.
Btw, can you share a really good recipe on Fresh Corned Beef that is easy to follow and ingredients readily available.
Thanks again.

Hi marketman, I love reading your foodblog and the other filipino food blogs! yum!! I am a manila foodie too! I love trying and looking for new places in Manila. I live for food and wine(in moderation!). Unfortunately I do not have a blog yet. I am in Italy now taking my Master in tourism, prior to that I took some cooking and wine classes in florence and had a gastronomic adventure there trying out different casalinga, enoteca and of the beaten path restaurants in tuscany. I hope I can join you “EB” sometime or if you have any food get together. I am going home to manila for the holidays. But for sure next year, I’ll be Manila for good so hopefully I can be part of the manila foodie group! Ciao! Keep up the good work and thumbs up to the Manila foodies!

so sad that i’m too far away (bacolod, not too far away really but far enough) and too poor to join the EB. P 500 is really a fair price to pay for such amazing spread, it’s the plane fare that would kill me. Been looking at the group pics and really wonder why all of you look fit?
I eat a gram and gain a pound! :)

Ajay, this was just like any other food EB, and it was KKB, everyone paid their own way, I just made sure they got their money’s worth and added to the appetizers myself. Dessert was just a way to test my latest attempts at ensaimada!

Hi. Visited here again to get the latest on the photo napping fiasco and then found out about this EB…too late:) I must say your EB is one of a kind, and maybe the first of a kind. Usually pag nag EB kami, KKB haha. Congrats and I hope there’ll still be a second one
