Food at DSWD

During the height of TS Sendong relief operations and information gathering, I volunteered to encode data from all the different evacuation centers and affected areas parallel to the need of the International Organization for Migration. It was a four day volunteer-ship and we had to go to DSWD Region 10 to do our tasks. So we ate at their canteen. One of the many foods served that I find to be unforgettable was the Humba, which looked more like Adobo.

The cut were actually different, but they all looked the same, more or less. Presentation-wise, it was never appealing, but once you smell the yumminess, you will get to order a portion, which cost P 25.00, plus a cup of rice and a cold drink.

Then they had snacks served too. Above was the not so good looking Custard Cake, which was actually heavenly, and the creamy Cassava Cake that's to die for..

All these food were served on a Friday. If you go there on another day, they will have another special for that specific day. So it was not so bad to be eating in their cramped canteen, where there were just a few tables and chairs. The food was great. Ijust do not know if they cook them or they order them.. But of course, there were other viands that came after we finished lunch that were prepared and cooked there, like the Fried Chicken and all others..

Giving a Wine Gift Basket

Shop at More Food Adventures

Have you ever had a difficult time looking for something to give a boss, teacher, mentor or anyone you think is difficult to please? Well, there are absolutely many things that you can consider like age and likes and the list could go on. Add a little flair and then you can think of something. But, if it is really difficult for you to do so, here's a little suggestion. Give a gift basket instead. You can actually choose from a different variety. You can choose chocolate gift baskets, home-care gift baskets and so on and so forth. But if it is a really important occasion, wouldn't it be a great idea to give a wine gift basket? 

Wine Gift Baskets exudes a flair on its own. A classy gift given to a person who will feel important afterwards. How they are prepared now is the key. You can actually go ahead and pick up every bit and piece of your gift basket, but you can also go ahead and pick what has already been picked and packed already. So far, it is the simplest and fastest gift idea in the market.

Now, if you order online, you will see images of prepacked goodies already, and most often, a theme for the said pack. Like, the one above is a Wine Trio Picnic Set. That is suitable for giving someone who loves going to picnics, and is already conveniently filled with picnic goodies like chocolates and nuts to go with three different wines. If I'd be given this set, I would think of sharing it with my family on a picnic or a boyfriend on a picnic date. A great gift idea indeed. 

If it's for indoor use, the wine gift set above which comprise of Hickory Farms products is a lovely addition to what's been served. Again, there are many more items to choose from, depending on ones choices of course. 

So why give wine gift baskets instead of the usual gifts? Aside from what I mentioned above, the most important thing is that, wine makes every occasion more colorful. And healthwise, wine, is a very healthy option, especially the organic wines.
