KFC Zinger Double Down

The newest addition to KFC's special edition burgers is here.  The KFC Zinger Double Down! Pack with all the goodness of KFC's best ingredients to give you that ever satisfying finger licking good meal.  One of my favorites in KFC is of course the Zinger!  Pure chicken fillet crisp fried and infused in the fillet is the spice that makes the Zinger one of the most loved chicken fillet burgers ever.

It all started with the KFC Double Down, then the Tower Burger, but we still didn't have enough, so how about punk'd our Zinger and double the excitement!  Add a few more delightful ingredients and drum roll please....The KFC Zinger Double Down.

Aquaknox Vietnamese delights

aquaknox2

Goi Cuon (P100)

I love Vietnamese foods, they offer an alternative to our everyday fried foods and I'm glad Aquaknox came into play.  As much as I want to go to Vietnam, work restraints me, so here I am enjoying the best of authentic Vietnam delights at the comfort of our home country.

On top is Fresh spring rolls with shrimps, pork, lettuce and vermicelli noodles.  This appetizer kinda reminds me of our own fresh lumpia, but a smaller version of course.  All over the world there has been so many variations of these, such are the burritos of Mexico, shawarma of the Turkish, but I would say this is one of the healthiest there is.

Canh Ga Chien Voi Toi (P 150)

Crunchy fried chicken lollipops with garlic and scallions, with tomatoes and lettuce on the side to garnish.  This is one appetizer I love!  Crunchy oh so yummy, I just hate it that these chicken lollipop wings are naturally small, I just can't enough of this.  Confession I finished one whole plate on my own ssshhhh.....

Mango Tree Bistro - a fusion of Thai flavors

mango12

Modern fun Thai dining at Mango Tree Bistro

It's my second time to dine at this classy fine dining bistro right smack where it happens in Greenbelt 5, Makati.  Their first branch being at Trinoma Mall was also a big hit among their patrons and has been getting rave reviews from food critics and bloggers alike.  They must be doing something right! I mean delicious! so to say.


They have an interesting take on their foods, and they have a diverse menu, surely you will enjoy the choices that Mango Tree Bistro has to offer.  As we may all know, Thai food generally has a spicy and sweet base, but what's good about this is that, you have the option to add or lessen the spiciness of the food.  So that you could still enjoy the goodness of Thai food without too much spice, as other would prefer.
