What's In the Bag: Snacks during the week.

So what's the beef? The past few weeks were filled with colorful and delicious dishes. 

Indulgence by Irene's HALO-HALO CHEESE CAKE. 
Cheese on top, langka or jackfruit jam in the middle and UBE underneath. DAMN.

CHEESEBURGER from THE BEEF in HOLE in the WALL.
Don't forget to eat your veggies!@!

CARAMEL MISO from BONO GELATO 

A cookie from Scout's Honor. A little dry but I did like the top part.

Plaza ham's HAMWICH! So darn simple and good.

CHILI'S Greenhills and Donya's Baby Shower


NACHOS, BURGERS, MARGARITAS and more. These are the things that come into my mind when CHILI'S is being talked about. 

On a Saturday, the KTG, gathered up and had a lunch "surprise" for Joan's Baby Shower! Abet aka the foodalphabet aka the happy husband was in cahoots so we were not worried at all. We figured that we needed a nice cool place for this to happen. CHILI'S was kind enough to provide it.


Since the celebrant was not yet there, we went on ahead and tried the new stuff CHILI'S had to offer. 

PULLED PORK CORN CAKEs (325Php). This mini pancake like dish is a stroke of genius. Putting pulled pork on top with some onions made it a joy to eat. Just don't smell my breath though.

For healthy eaters , the ANCHO RUBBED TILAPIA (425 Php)was served. This fish dish has that twang to enhance tilapia's flavor.

For the big boys... like me. 

I enjoyed the next few dishes as well.

SWEET MUSTARD SEED BABY BACK RIBS (664/965Php)


and the SMOKE GARLIC SIRLOIN (845Php).

My brother loves ribs and steak and I can imagine him ordering both dishes all for himself. The ribs were tender. The steak was pretty soft and was a pleasant surprise.
 
For dessert, we were served the APPLE BERRY COBBLER (325Php)
 Interesting to note, their ice cream takes a while to melt. Because of this, I enjoyed eating the berries. Both contrasting hot and cold for me. It wasn't that sweet and fruits are healthy right?

After an hour or so, the guest of honor arrived.
 Here's Joan!!!!!
 Mr. and Mrs. Lim
 and the photobomber on the side.

It was fun seeing her smile and open up our gift. 

Irene of Indulgence by Irene also had brought mini cheesecakes!!! These are love!!!! Check her out on 
her facebook page . She brough Kalamansi (my fave), Ube, and Corn. I soooo love her cheesecakes! 

We were also glad that Bohemia Cakes & Pastries were able to send a cake on over. 
This beauty was perfect for the soon to be mother and father.  Check out their facebook page here.

Also another surprise was the giveaway. These beautiful and cute orbs were made by SHORTS GOURMET MANILA.
This whole thing is actually edible. Its made with the same stuff you have on cakes. 
Inside are short breads. Definitely a crowd pleaser and an awesome giveaway on any occasion. 
Check them out at facebook .


CHILI'S is one of the go to places of my family. Be it for a quick casual lunch or a snack with drinks in tow. I love that they are affordable specially for the price and the quality of food they serve.  Good for sharing, this is a place to go to with the gang. They also got unlimited alcoholic drinks so get ready for happy hour. Will definitely go back.

Indulgence by Irene: Quezo Madness!

There comes a point in time when a man got to do what a man got to do. Ever since, I was not really into cakes and what not but peer pressure made me step it up. 
You see, my office mates and I tend to talk about food all the time and that led to one thing and another.
 Since we wanted to try out something  new, we figured to why not get something we wouldn't regret. 
 and that my friend is the Quezo De Bola Cheese Cake made by Indulgence By Irene..
I was able to "steal" 3 adorable Quezo de Bola Cheesecake. At first I thought, its pretty normal... BUT!!! One bite and you would know that you are in for a treat. The flavor wasn't overstimulating. Everything was in proportion. It wasn't too sweet nor was it over board. This would definitely great with a cup of coffee. Did I mention that it was also moist!!!
My friends and I figured that Irene didn't skimp on the ingredients. The quality was just impressive!!! It could rival those cakes from malls and even some hotels! 
 I think I have only met this genius Irene around twice or thrice. In case you don't know she is the wife of a lucky husband foodie by the name of Richard of Tales from the Tummy. She is not only down to earth but she definitely knows her cooking! Ang Sarap!!!
You might say that the price tag is a little bit steep. The small cakes are around 220Php while a huge one would cost around a thousand (be sure to check the prices with them first!). Believe me when I say, it is worth it. I didn't mind the trouble of going circles and experiencing traffic just to get my cakes. 

Rather than going to the usual cake store, I for one would be definitely leaning towards this Indulgence!!!

Food In The Bag is now on Facebook. Like it here.
