Hell’s Kitchen Season 7 Episode 11: Highs and Lows of Ben

Posted by admin in Food, TV Shows

I really love to watch reality based TV shows, much so about cooking and dining out. That is why I really am excited to complete all the episodes of the Hell’s Kitchen. This is one stressful episode in Season 7 Episode 9:

Everyone now in the black team really wants to be at their best just to make it to the top and be the chef at the Savoy restaurant in London (owned by Chef Gordon Ramsey).

Ben topped as the most beautiful dish in terms of presentation and taste and got covered in an online food website. Though he got challenged to step up and be the leader among these chef contestants. View this episode and see the rest for yourself.

KFC New Double Down Sandwich Is Here

Posted by admin in Food, Promos

And I admit that I want to get my own taste of it. Just so bad that I forgot to get this yesterday when we went off to the nearest mall for some errands and grocery shopping.

Some says it is heavy on carbs and fats, but I believe that having one taste of that in a month is just fine. All you need to do after is take some time to stretch out and have some exercise activity and eat healthier after to strike a balance.

How about you? Have you had your own order of this KFC New Double Down Chicken Sandwich lately?

Pineapple Fruit Feast

When I want to have a quick dose of Vitamin C, I go ahead and have slices of these after meals:

For me, pineapples provide variety of flavor and taste because I can say that not all of these slices are equal.

There are those that will make you look like an endorser of a vinegar ad, while there are some slices that will make you eat the rest as well because you just got the sweet ones.

They say that these pineapple chunks in can are still healthy, yes I believe so, but I find the fresh ones better in terms of taste and texture.

So the next time you want to grab these healthy treats, make sure to choose those that are really ripe, ready for a quick fruit feast.

Birthday Cheesecake

Posted by admin in Food

What is a birthday cheesecake? It’s what people within the food service industry call a cheesecake (or any food item) that will be expiring on that day. Of course it doesn’t really mean that the food would be inedible. It’s just that its food quality will go down a bit from that point on.

I’m just not sure why it’s called birthday when such an event actually marks the birth of something.

Mountain Dew and Caffeine

Posted by admin in Food

A while back, I have always been surprised to realize that Mountain Dew is a great energy drink, especially when I needed to stay awake at very late hours of the night. That is even though the drink is not advertised or marketed as an energy drink. And then I’ve read in a website that Mountain Dew contains at least 50 mg of caffeine.

That’s about a cup of regular coffee. So that’s why it keeps me awake and alert. Often it works even better than most energy drinks I’ve tried.

And it tastes even better. I’ve always preferred the sweet, lime-flavored drink. I also like its green packaging. Nowadays, whenever I needed to stay awake, I always grab a bottle of Mountain Dew. However, when there’s no Dew in sight, I just go back to my regular cup of coffee.

Chicken Pastel

Posted by admin in Food

I’m not really fond of eating chicken, however there is one dish that I like. It’s chicken pastel.

When I first encountered this dish, I was surprised to see a pie-looking food. And then when I dug in with my spoon, out came the hot and delicious chicken and vegetables filling. It was one of the most delicious thing that I ever tasted.

It has to be the crust. Whenever I go out and order chicken pastel, I make sure that there is a crust. Without it, I don’t consider it a chicken pastel. I’m not sure if the crust is required, but for me it is.

Maybe one reason why I like this dish is because I am a sucker for pies. I love pies such as apple pie, buko pie, blueberry pie and even pizza pie. The last one’s not a joke because I really love pizzas! Especially an all-cheese variant. It’s the perfect comfort food for me, and one of the main reasons why I am overweight.
