Hotteok and Dumplings
Right after gym my husband craves for hotteok and dumplings so I went out to buy them. Yeah right I am the errand girl because he is the financier (lol). I went to the dumplings place first and bought 4 box of dumplings, which is consist of 2 fried and 2 steamed. There are few customers so I waited until the dumplings are cooked.
Right after I went to the public market where the old woman hotteok stall was, when I arrived there she is with another woman on her age, probably friend or sister, as I already forgot how much per piece is I ask them but as we cannot understand each other I just gave all my money and I ended up having 11 hotteoks.
Pizza and Spaghetti on Friday
Friday is day for cheating in our diet, even it is cold and raining outside I went out to buy pizza and spaghetti. We didn’t buy chicken anymore because it was too expensive and instead of buying baked goods we had set of chocolates for dessert.
I went to 59 pizza to order our food and instead of waiting I went home because the pizza parlor is quite small and there’s already someone waiting. I can’t go to a store and buy something because I bought the chocolates first before ordering the pizza. I had small bulgogi pizza and spaghetti while my husband has pepperoni with cheesy crust.
Kalamay
If there’s one more thing I missed in the Philippines that is eating sweet delicacy or native food like Kalamay (rice cakes). The day I arrived in my hometown we went to town to buy rice cakes, I took chances to taste all of them. My favorite though is the kalamay made on glutinous rice with arnibal on the top.
Some of them are made from cassava flour and corn flour, I am not able to eat all the food I bought because I am too full. The next day when I look at them in our fridge they are already stale.
