Pan-fried Soy sauce based Salmon

Pan-fried Soy sauce based Salmon


Shessh. I don't remember now how did I cook this but what I know is that in this recipe:

I coated the salmon in flour first and fried in the pan until lightly golden brown.

Put equal parts dark soy sauce, Yutaka Mirin and the Blue Dragon Mirin in the pan. Cook in medium heat until caramelized.

Cooking Angus Beef Patties

Cooking Angus Beef Patties




In the Philippines, we rarely opt for the Angus Beef because it is expensive.


I am not familiar in cooking beef patties which are thick so I made again another experiment and can conclude that these patties are cooked 4 &1/2 to 5 minutes each side.

Fresh Touch Spa

Fresh Touch Spa



When I went to a brief vacation in the Philippines this year, it was in my plan to pamper myself and my family. I thought that I will not be able to tick this item in my checklist but during one Saturday, my brother jokingly commented that we need to have massage after going to Mass. It is a good thing that we were able to secure 4 persons reservation in the morning, and the massage was in the evening because I forgot to call them a day prior.


This is not the first time my family and I went in Fresh Touch spa. Their basic massage price has gone up from 299 php to almost 500 php. It is not posh but I could say that it was relaxing and worth it for it's price. They got promo packages which you can check out and honor senior discounts. They also accept cash and credit cards. My brother decided that we have Package 5 which costs around 549 php.


Package 5 - 759 php

Ventosa


One thing that I won't repeat anymore is the Ventosa. Not really a fan once I've experienced it.
