PinakBest of Sen. Imee Marcos - A Collection of Rich Ilocos Cuisine & Legacy

For a food enthusiast and frustrated chef myself, writing about food and cookbook is a real satisfaction. That's why when I was invited to attend the presscon of "PinakBest", I immediately said, of course!

PinakBest Cookbook of Sen Imee Marcos

The said event was held yesterday, Dec 14, 4:00PM, via Zoom due to the hectic schedule of the author. In fact, during the actual media launch, she admitted that she had to jump in to her senate meeting after the book launch. The author we are referring to is no other than, Senator Imee Marcos, who is so candid and friendly , as usual, during the Zoom launch.

PinakBest

Personally, I think it's really high time to write about an in depth book that talks about Ilocos cuisine. That's why the launch of "PinakBest" is an ideal and recommended gift to all chef or foodie out there.

During the lunch, Sen. Imee Marcos admitted she was quite a rebellious kid growing up, " “I must have been a really naughty kid because I was always punished to the kitchen every day,” the senator shared.

The senator/book author also recalls that there's always some festivity in the Marcos home and they have to host and serve magnitude of food to guests. Growing up in a family exposed us to various gatherings, the senator credits her mother Imelda as the one who really taught them how to celebrate and enjoy food.

Sen. Imee Marcos & Reggie Aspiras

PinakBest cookbook of Sen Imee Marcos is book collaboration with close family friend, Ms. Reggie Aspiras, who wrote notes in the cookbook.

There are over 90 rich recipes in "PinakBest", all detailed with simple instructions to follow. Even kitchen newbies will be able to cope and follow. Not to mention photos we will surely enjoy with the food. Some bonus rare Marcos photos are also shared in the cookbook.

So, better head to the nearest book store or you can also order online to purchase "PinakBest". It's surely a threat for anyone to receive this Christmas season.

Merry Christmas! Let's all enjoy the Holidays and the good Filipino food.

2023 - How to Renew Drivers License in Less Than 30 (Valid For 10 Years)

V ery recently, I had to renew my drivers license which is going to expire on April 8, 2023. Admittedly, anything that involves Philippine government processing does not excite me. Who would be? There's so much inefficiencies, graft and red tape! Yup, that is our government. Simply great in wasting our time and precious money. LTO Robinson's Las Pinas Branch But that soon changed when I went to Robinson's Las Pinas LTO satellite branch to renew my drivers license last Wednesday, March 29, 2023. I arrived at exactly 12:00 noon and I was expecting LTO personnel to be on lunch. Darn! I was wrong! LOL There were staff ready to process my business that day. I was also surprised that a staff approached me to assist. At first, I thought he was going to offer quick and easy processing of my renewal but with a "charge" (red tape). Boy, I was wrong. He was decent and offered his assistance and provided the needed info for me to renew, complete with the rate and where to go

Growing up, I was not allowed to try and drink it because of the alcohol content of the drink. But that's all in the past now. Today, we witnessed that Distileria Limtuaco and Co.
