Salmon, a tender, reddish fish is one of my most favorite seafood in any menu. It has a very firm, rich, subtle buttery flavor. Did you know that a small serving of salmon around 100 grams is about 200 calories. It’s a great source of protein and very low in saturated fat. It also contains abundant amounts of vitamin D, vitamin B12, potassium and iron.
While you can’t taste, smell, or eat it, food has played these three integral roles in video games for many years.
Formerly known as The Palace Manila, The Island Outdoor Bistro opened its doors again to the public last January 2021. Supporting the IATF’s recommendation, it transformed the old party place into a refreshing al-fresco dining venue. It features a revamp and improved facilities equipped with trained staff to face the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. Last February 27, 2021, I was able to dine in with my friends and have tried their tantalizing menu items.
Oat milk is an alternative for dairy milk usually made from soaking oats overnight along with water. It’s perfect for vegetarians and vegans looking to start-up their day with a cup of coffee or a bowl of granola and cereal. I recently discovered Minor Figures Oat Milk. A group of painters, jazz musicians, basketball players and barbers, brought together by a love of specialty coffee and all of the creative cultures in its orbit created Minor Figures, a company catering to mostly vegan market. A carbon neutral company, they are offsetting the carbon emissions the company create. They invest into projects that absorb or reduce the same amount of carbon from the atmosphere.
As I mentioned before, The Tennis Foodie was born out of love and passion for Food, Tennis, Fashion and Travel. My fourth year was not short of drama, features, awards, travel, tennis and fashion. So what changed after four years?
I had the privilege of attending The Canadian Roast and Toast Dinner hosted by The Embassy of Canada last December 4, 2020. It was attended by selected restaurateurs and top foodies at Ikomai in Salcedo Village, Makati City. Also in attendance were Honorable Ambassador Peter MacArthur, the Canadian Ambassador to the Philippines along with First Secretary and Senior Trade Commissioner, Lulu LeBlanc.
The Tennis Foodie turns four today. It’s been a very challenging yet ultra productive year. This year, I started to post daily at the start of the pandemic. I also released more recipes this year. I’ll continue to do that next year.
This has been a very challenging year for everyone. Back when everything was normal, if we are craving for a nice slice of pizza or our favorite milk tea, we would just go out and buy it whenever we like. The problem, nowadays, is that people are more cautious in going out of their homes, most restaurants and food businesses are closed, and some already lost their jobs due to this pandemic.
Did you know that there’s a new pasta place in Bohol? Yes! You heard it right. Carbonara Restaurant owned by Luca is Bohol’s first cheese wheel place home for authentic Italian pasta. Located at the Airport Road, Panglao, Bohol, it’s one of the budding new restaurants in the area.
Gone are the days when we would associate the word ‘baking’ with a traditional oven. Unless you’re a professional baker or supplier of homemade baked goods, you can get creative with food recipes even without an oven. If you’re still deliberating over an oven purchase, you might (finally!) be able to make up your mind after reading these baking hacks with an air fryer, which is basically a compact countertop convection oven.
