Being in the food business has its perks and a few drawbacks. The biggest perk? I get to try all kinds of delicious food sent my way. The downside? I have to watch how much I eat—otherwise, it’s easy to end up on the road to obesity and health issues. Nobody wants that! So, I’m careful. I’ve been on a diet for as long as I can remember.
Inasal perfection, found here

In the early '80s, a stall with a blue-and-white chicken logo opened just across from Don Bosco in Makati. It was a barbecue chicken stall that originated in Bacolod. I’d never heard of, let alone tasted, this provincial specialty. All I saw was smoke and could smell the aroma of grilling meats. Naturally, I had to try it. It was love at first bite. I learned that this dish was called Bacolod chicken inasal. Marinated and broiled over charcoal, this dish, to me, could put the Philippines on the world culinary map.
