Spinach Tart: Something that would "Blow you down!"

Spinach Tart: Something that would "Blow you down!"

I jokingly posted in my facebook page that I was eating “paborita”, a traditional Filipino thin-layered cookies, and “laing”, a Bicolano recipe made out of taro leaves cooked in coconut milk, in Starbucks Sto.Tomas. 

It is true that their Spinach Tart really has resemblance to the said local delicacies and surely a must-order and taste when you visit the famous coffee shop.  Served as a square-shaped layered pastry enough to be a complete meal and made more appetizing by its spinach stuffing I have no idea what they put into it but one thing is for sure… it’s delicious.

Because spinach has a high nutritional value and is extremely rich in antioxidants, I recommend indulge it with a hot variety of coffee instead of their cold coffee products, it would be more appreciated.  

I enjoyed my visit to Sturbucks Sto.Tomas, Batangas not only because of the coziness of the place and good customer-service, I enjoyed it more because of the Spinach Tart.  Something you and PopEye(the cartoon character who really loves spinach) would surely enjoy too.

Prelude to the Tasting/Rating of Food

The Busy (and Hungry)Maharlika Highway

Hello.  This is my debut post regarding me, being a foodie.  According to the internet, a foodie is "a gourmet, or a person who has an ardent or refined interest in food and alcoholic beverages,  seeks new food experiences as a hobby rather than simply eating out of convenience or hunger."... 

Now that the town of Sto.Tomas in the province of Batangas, rich in history and talented people, is starting to be known as a booming rendezvous for friends and family to dine or just to hang-out, I think it is also time for someone to give feedbacks to the food being served in restos and food kiosks popping out like mushrooms in the town's vicinity especially by its Maharlika Highway.  I believe that we need critics not to destroy someone, in this case, a resto's reputation but to help in improving the quality and taste of the food they serve and eventually help the economy in general.  

So I better prepare my tummy and appetite, for sure this will be a food fight...
