Lechon, one of pinoy's favorite when it comes to party. This crunchy, oily, reddish meat with an apple on its mouth is everyone's bet in all the gatherings, events, get together, name it. Party won't be complete without it. Even the people abroad are loving it, except me, i guessed. But last nights encounter with Cebuboy Lechon made my disagreement to 180 degree turn. And I just found myself eating lechon like there's no tomorrow.

Cebuboy Lechon, provider of authentic Cebu Lechon, gave us the good news  last November 24, 2012 at Ivory Tower, Acacia  Estate, Taguig City. They're now delivering lechon from Cebu to Manila in a hassle-free ordering. Indeed, the best lechon in the world, according to Anthony Bourdain, a celebrity TV chef, is now made available and easily accessible to Manila.

Impressively the event started exactly at 10 and I’m 10 minutes late (blame my heels,lol!). But good thing the cooking part happened after Chef  Ingrid gave the instructions on the recipes, the equipment and the preparation. All the participants were given a brown envelope; inside are the recipes to choose from. The four recipes are: Festival fruitcake cookies, Guilt-free chewy brownies,Homemade Granola Treats and Prune Buttercream Delight Bars. Our group go for the brownies and granola treats.

Ingredients were prepared for each group depending on their recipe

Banking on Filipino’s sweet tooth and penchant for embracing food from around the world, the wildly popular MOCHI SWEETS has made its way into the local food scene and is sure to create a mochi craze as seen in Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and China.

“Mochi” is a well-loved Japanese rice cake made from glutinous rice flour pounded into shape. Mochi Sweets has taken this traditional dessert further by creating small balls of luxurious and flavorful cream and wrapping it in chewy mochi skin.  Think dessert dumplings with frozen cream or mousse in the center and a mochi covering made with just the right thickness, moistness and stickiness.

Yabang Pinoy Launches PHmade: “It’s Worth Buying For”

Yabang Pinoy intensifies its consumer revolution campaign through the PHmade
movement.

The pioneering Filipino pride movement, through PHmade, yet again encourages
Filipinos to support Filipino ideas, business concepts, products, and services. The
campaign aims to educate Filipinos, through videos, print materials and events, on
the availability and viability of Filipino brands, and on the positive impact that going
local contributes to the economy.

PHmade’s tagline “It’s Worth Buying For” encourages each Filipino to think twice
before spending: is it really worth buying for? Yabang Pinoy believes that small
things, when done together, can create a big difference. If each Filipino became
conscious of where he spends one peso, he will understand how each choice affects
himself, fellow Filipinos, and the country. PHmade also aspires to influence Filipino
entrepreneurs into supporting local natural and human resources.

Indeed, patronage of locally made goods and services should be a lifestyle. It
enables homegrown brands to improve and compete against foreign brands. The
local economy also improves as money goes back and forth between consumer and
business, employee and employer. And as more entrepreneurs create, develop, and
expand their businesses, more job opportunities are generated. PHmade recognizes
Filipino ingenuity and the role of each Filipino in nation-building.

PHmade focuses on seven categories: Produce, Home, Footwear, Fashion, Personal
and Home Care, Food and Beverage, and Entertainment. The campaign will
continue to collaborate with Filipino entrepreneurs and encourage them to continue
to improve their products and services and to always aim for Filipino brands to be
global brands.

PHmade is a project of Yabang Pinoy, the pioneering Filipino pride movement that
started in 2005. As it celebrates its 8th anniversary, the organization includes it
among numerous Filipino pride projects, such as the Y.A.B.A.N.G. Camp (Youth
Achievers Building A Nation of Greatness Camp), Yabang Pinoy Goes to School,
Pinaka-mahabang Todo Patintero, Global Pinoy Bazaar, and many more. In the 8
years that Yabang Pinoy has immersed itself in various nation-building activities, it
re-affirms its belief that true progress and development in our country will start once
Filipinos begin living a proudly Filipino lifestyle.

Yabang Pinoy invites every Filipino to be part of the PHmade movement. As
early as now, save November 10- 11 2012 for the 8th Global Pinoy Bazaar – a
showcase of Filipino products made with 100% Filipino Love and Pride.
