Keep Calm and Eat Lasagne Que | Cebu's Homegrown Lasagna

Gambar
Celebrate sunny and rainy days with simple recipes made with heart. Food is important because it carries the tradition from one generation to another.  And that's what Shing  Paca ña did with her Mom's recipes. Introducing Xia's and Xeb's Lasagne Que. What Lasagne Que is all about. After three years of cooking and baking lasagna, making deliveries, posting and advertising on Instagram and Facebook, selling her food in bazaars, Shing   has finally established her roots in Cebu's Makan Ahooy Food Kiosk located in Salinas Avenue, Lahug .  Named after her daughters, Xia and Xeb, Lasagne Que is truly a labor of love. Shing took her Mom's beloved recipes for Lasagna and Leche Flan and created a food business that created a buzz in Cebu. Her main focus is on the food that she grew up with. She also created another delicious dessert, Oreo Ice Cream, which I'm thinking her daughters love to have as their snack. Lasagna with Calamansi and Iced Tea drinks I know for ...

"Don't dream, just go!" 3 days Over 102 Exhibitors Numerous destinations thousands of visitors and travelers Big discounts and huge promos These are just some reasons to flock to Ayala Center Cebu on July 15-17 to experience the 3rd International Travel Festival . This is one of the much-anticipated events that a traveler waits for.  Discounts and promos are a must for people who have itchy feet and wants to wander around.

Game of Thrones Season 6 | Stories of Redemption

Gambar
"WHEN YOU PLAY THE GAME OF THRONES, YOU WIN OR YOU DIE. THERE IS NO MIDDLE GROUND." In just a few hours, the season finale of HBO's most popular series, Game of Thrones, will be aired. The tenth episode is titled, "Winds of Winter", which coincidentally is the same title of the unpublished book six. George RR Martin is definitely putting some sweet time in writing the novel. Some fans consider last week's episode as the anti-climactic one since it showed the epic Battle of the Bastards. And saw the demise of the much-hated character of Ramsay Bolton. For me, I'm both excited and a little bit sad that the season will be drawing to a close and that we have to wait another year for the next one. Some rumors are spreading that the last two seasons will have fewer episodes since they've almost extinguished the book materials that they have on hand. In season 6, we've seen a lot of stories of redemption from unlikely characters. Previous villains came ...

He chose the tastiest dishes that he knew would be a hit with Filipinos and combined them with his beloved Pinoy recipes like La Paz Batchoy and his original pork barbecue sauce.
