The Weekend

The mister got a text message on Friday from our friend, Verner for an intimate Saturday dinner invitation at their house. So, I told the mister that we'll bring two trays of cassava cake. They always request me to bring this everytime we see each other.

Broiling for 2 more minutes and it's done. #cassavacake - 1tray for @extrafunky and 1 for me. 😆😅😃 #homebaking #homebaked #homebaker #pinoyfood #kakanin

Grilled fish (pompano), grilled squid, grilled pork belly, two varieties of Palabok (one had chicken and another had shrimp), cassava cake, coffee cake, cheese, and cured and smoked meat platter, coffee, red wine, and beer. All were instagrammable, even our water.




The following day we came back at the Abella's for more. Again!? Hahaha. So, basically we spent most of our weekend at their house. We had Saturday's left overs, and Rema's (Verner's wife) steamed rice Dimsum Style for dinner.



I didn't exactly know the reason for the gathering, so I asked my friend, Yengyeng on Friday evening.

She said, "Great weather!"

I disagree. It wasn't great. It was perfect.


P.S. Yes! We finished the two trays of cassava cake.
