In search of pinoy food

Sunday I craved for pinoy food, pinoy inasal food. 

I heard it before that there is Jollibee and Mang Inasal at Lau Pa Sat. I did not pay attention then since I don't really believe there is one, and besides I was partial to local food then and even now. Singapore is really a food haven for it's variety of choices anywhere you go.

So last Sunday I went to Lau Pa Sat in search for the filipino food. Lau Pa Sat is a historic building here, which used to be a marketplace way back and turn into a food center now. It is a cast-iron structure, think of San Sebastian Church and the used to be train station in Tutuban.

Yes there is chicken inasal here, and it was closed. Yes it is called Mack's Chicken Inasal Atbp and not Mang Inasal. This the reason why I came here. Because back home Mang Inasal chicken is my favorite. I was disappointed as I did not know they were closed on Sundays but will come back here to check the food.

 

On another wing of the food center is Jolly V. Hahah I was doped, really all along I was thinking of the real thing back home. Oh yes, they offer the same food. Chicken joy, burger steak which the one I ordered. Well it is close to the real thing tastewise so I think. 

Notice the crowd? Yes they are kabayans and they came here  for the pinoy food. 

As I am not happy of what I am having, I end up ordering chili crab on the opposite malay food stall, and boy the best chili crab I had tried so far.

Coffee somewhere, and then time to go home. 

Catching mrt at this station, Raffles Place reminds me back of how far away I am from home.

First of more to come

Today is my first, and yes I do expect more to come, baptism of fire here on my new job assignment. I was called to office this morning. I normally goes direct to jobsite when reporting to work daily and only comes to office twice in a week. Last night I received a call from my immediate boss instructing me to report to office first before proceeding to site this morning. Yes I was summoned and yes I was interrogated. The culprit was a lady who has a reputation of a consistent complainer in the neighborhood.

For the background, the 13 blocks of a housing flats here will be subjected to lift upgrading works, which will commence sometime this April. Prior to that, there are services like telecom lines, power lines, cable lines need to be relocated and rerouted, so there will be a lot of concrete breaking and excavation which will definitely create so much noise in the vicinity.  To cut the story short, this lady complains about the noise by writing with a twist to the town council which the town council forwarded it to the government housing body and end up to our office being the project consultant in charge of the construction. That is why I was subjected to a panel interrogation this morning.

Wala lang masama lang loob ko because it happened during my off day. The lady was a bit overboard, she should have not draft that letter in the first place.

Paying Post, what about?

I had a very interesting conversation earlier this morning. A long lost friend happens to read my blog and I was a bit scared and instantly my mind mentally reviewing my previous entries if I have post that mentioned her, lucky I can't recall I have one. My friend told me I have an interesting entries and asked me what motivates me to blog, I told her honestly that just like others who enjoys blogging because they get something in return, so am I. Her follow up question was how? I said I monetized my blog. That's my main motivation. To be honest I am not a good story teller but I guess not bad either. Then she asked if I heard about get paid to post? I told her I don't have idea how it works and will I be up to it. She led me to the site and I became excited reading the concept. I find it easy and seems great to join right after visiting the site and so immediately I signed in. 

Here's some interesting facts that might entice you. While you can brag products you believe in wether it is your gadget, your favorite food in your favorite restaurant to name some, you get paid in return. Isn't it exciting? There are a lot of opportunities here I must say because advertisers are abound.

Another way is by advertising your product at Paying Post. If you have product to sell, or event you want to advertise, here is what you do. Just like my friend who not just bragging her gadgets  and get paid in return, she also advertise her events and shows thru Paying Post.

Now, I have one opportunity waiting for me to brag.
