The Classic Savory Chicken

-
I Love to Eat Chicken.

On several occasions, these are the three choices that I would give Paul whenever we're deciding on where to eat:

KFC...

Max's...

Savory...

Obviously, which ever he chooses, one thing's for sure. we're having Chicken!

Last Saturday, Paul and I had to grab a quick lunch before the start of his photo shoot. With only thirty minutes to spare, we decided to just choose from the restaurants nearby and not wanting to just end up with a fast food lunch, we decided to go to Savory Chicken which was perfectly located in front of the event site.

Paul frequents Savory Chicken more than I do and so he took care of ordering for us this time.

Browsing through the menu, Paul finally made his choices and ordered the following for our quick but delicious meal:

Savory Combo A (Php. 295). This meal is good for two as it comes with two cups of rice, Lumpia Shanghai, 1/2 Fried Chicken and Pansit Canton. We both love Savory's gravy which is why we immediately requested for an additional saucer the moment our chicken was served to us.

Savory is really known for their Fried Chicken which has a very delicious flavor that comes from their secret marinade and ingredient. This recipe dates back in 1950 when they first opened their small store in Manila. I remember enjoying this since I was a little kid as my Grandfather (whom I fondly call Kongkong) would order two boxes for our family to enjoy. Back then, the chicken comes with fried banana and some dinner rolls. The sauce was also more spicy then.

I was happy with our combo dish and I wasn't really expecting for Paul to order another dish. However, he really outdid himself and ordered a plate of Beef Tenderloin (Php. 225) which I love so much! It was my first time to try this dish and I was surprised at how tender it was. I just loved every bite and I think I ate more strips than Paul did. Teehee..

As we wiped our plates clean, I thank him for the delicious lunch and warned him that I might just crave for the Beef Tenderloin in the coming days. It's a good thing that we have two Savory Chicken outlets within our neighborhood so my Beef Tenderloin is just a phone call away.

Savory Chicken has branches along Gilmore Avenue (Ortigas Ave.), Robinsons Place Manila, Mandaluyong, Theater Mall in Greenhills and more!

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night
