Market-ing Extreme

We can finally go home in a couple of days! I do miss going home.

Since we bought most of the contents inside our refrigerator to my Grandma's house, we were running low on supplies. We had to take pit stops in different markets to stock up.

First up, the wet market.

And look at the goodies we found!

Twin bananas

We also passed by a Korean supermarket and I saw almost all of the grocery items I bought in Korea.

Here's the Ginseng Chicken I bought.

Snacks galore

Melon ice cream

the store also came with a cute Korean kid who was playing with barley.

we also stopped by another supermarket and bought snacks.

Tostitos ;D

So many hotdogsto choose from!

My stash and impulse buy for the day.

A Korean snack which I'm unsure whether it's cheese or sausage but I still couldn't figure out which after eating the lot.

Not cheap too. Set me back Php 70 for the small stick.

I still prefer going to the supermarket where it's cleaner. Although the wet market had fresh stuff, I had people begging me for money, mud on my feet and being pushed by different people - not quite worth it for me.

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Around Manila: Exploring the streets of J.P. Rizal in Marikina

It is funny how we know the history and culture of a land we do not live in yet know so little about where we live. Thus, began our mission to explore Manila, one city at a time. DESTINATION: Marikina Starting Time: 11am End Time: 5pm How to get to J.P. Rizal in Marikina - Waze (app) and Google Maps Marikeno (native people in Marikina) are said to be the most disciplined people in the Philippines. If the cleanliness around Marikina were a testament to that, Marikenos would pass with flying colors. The streets I could say were similar to those in Singapore - free from litter and we saw people from households cleaning their own front area even if it were facing a street. SHOE CAPITAL of the Philippines Marikina produces 70% of the shoes in the country. and holds the World's Largest Pair of Shoes, recognized by the Guinness World Records.
