Margie's Kitchen in Butuan City

Shop at More Food Adventures

Finally, my sister and I were able to visit Margie's Kitchen to sample some of their delectable cakes and pastries. Every time we come here in Butuan City, we plan to drop by Margie's Kitchen, but always fail to do so. Our attempts always fail because we usually lack the time to do so. So today, after looking for liquid image summit series, we decided to go and drop by together with our cousin Grace.

We were not hungry really, we just wanted to sample some of their food. I have always wanted to try the Nelusko Cake, their house specialty. Unfortunately, it was not there today. Or maybe we were late? Anyway, I read that people love their Margie's Cookie Monster Cake as well as their Sans Rival.

That is truly yummy Margie's Cookie Monster Cake there.. Not too sweet, yet really rich chocolate.. At P 90 per slice, it truly is comforting to know that you wont feel guilty after eating a slice.. It was heavenly, I swear! Now, I find Margie's Sans Rival Cake (below) really tempting that I heard it calling our for me the moment we stepped inside the cafe.. And truth be told, it was really worth its price.  At P 95, I find it huge a portion. But well worth its price as I find myself really in cake bliss when I started taking it bit by bit..

My cousin Grace, on the other hand wanted something for early dinner, so she ordered a Thai dish which I do not exactly know the name because I forgot to ask earlier, lol.

So there-- my first time at Margie's Kitchen. And guess what? We are going back to taste other goodies, as well as linger in that cozy little cafe. I love how the decor comes overflowing with memorabilia and all that artistic touch. Reminds me of my room back in high school where graffiti and art have blended well with books and stuff. I hope to try the Margie's Kitchen Nelusko Cake on our next visit. I couldn't get over the fact that I was there.. so close to tasting it.. Hmm.. maybe tomorrow? hehehe, we'll see...

I like Margie's Kitchen in the sense that conversations there are intimate and the staff are actually really nice.. Best of all, Margie's Kitchen is a great place when you are with good company-- had a blast at Margie's Kitchen this afternoon with the two ladies above..

Hormel SPAM Oven Roasted Turkey

Shop at More Food Adventures

If you live in the United States, you wouldn't just be looking for cowgirl boots at BootCity.com, but you may have SPAM included in your everyday breakfast list, as it is after all common there. But here in the Philippines, unless you are well to do, you will not have SPAM on a regular basis. You may not have SPAM even on a monthly basis. Technically, you will find SPAM at the imported section of the grocery. And if you are running your household on a tight budget, you will not have SPAM in your grocery list.

After TS Sendong hit our city, we were running on a really tight budget. With our house and vehicles up for repairs and clean up, we knew that expenses are gonna be bumpy. Plus expenses for other things will surely arise. It was a depressing scenario but we managed to smile when my father, out of humor, brought home this Hormel SPAM Oven Roasted Turkey. A day after that, it was cooked and served during breakfast. That particular day, we were about to start cleaning up again after the Christmas holiday. That afternoon that he bought the Hormel SPAM Oven Roasted Turkey, was actually the afternoon he received his differential from his retirement fund. We asked him why he bought such a pricey canned good, and he said that with all the canned goods we have been receiving, we must at least have something that will make us want more out of life. I couldn't quite figure out what he meant, but it was like, after Sendong hit you and you have been spared, been given canned goods that actually have the same labels, you must have one that must be unique to keep you wanting for more out of life. If I am to put that in simple words, it would be "a canned good for inspiration" with a twist of my father's humor. I guess that is quite understandable...

So yeah, after that SPAM was devoured, my sister told me that we should be able to stand up after the storm that passed. Otherwise, we may not have another chance to eat SPAM again, lol.. Kidding aside, I think it worked. 

Anyway, if you wanna know more about Hormel SPAM you can find data here.
