The Sassy Lawyer & Pinoy Cook on food, family and home.
There are plenty of restaurants and bars at Eastwood City. For our daughter’s birthday dinner last August, we chose Super Bowl which served Chinese food.
Our meal started with steamed and fried dimsum. Well, sort of, actually. The dimsum, meant to be an appetizer, was served midway through the meal. 
The birthday noodles were great. I especially liked the colored quail eggs. Actually, most of the dishes were good. It was the service that left much to be desired.

In 2003, a time when I hadn't heard of the term "blog", I started a recipe website at cooking.houseonahill.net using a now defunct content management system that ran on ASP. Ok, never mind the geek talk, I'm sure you're not interested in that. The contents easily multiplied and, in 2004, I moved the food site to pinoycook.net. Always unhappy with the fact that the dot com versions of houseonahill and pinoycook weren't … (click here to read all »)
