Happy Coffee Day!!!

To all coffee drinkers, addicts and enthusiasts, Happy National Coffee Day to us!


National Coffee day actually falls on the 29th of September. Technically, today is still my 29th (happens to be part of the nocturnal group who answers calls),  kaya, happy coffee day pa to me.


Just a bit of Trivia: There are 111 million of coffee drinkers around the world consuming more than 440 billion cups of joe every year. And the numbers keep rising.


2nd trivia: The most expensive coffee in the world is Indonesia's Kopi Luwak, $50 per cup. This comes from coffee beans that are eaten, digested and excreted by civet (an little animal). Now, i really dont know why people pay for it, in fact pay much for it, when actually its from animal poop. I am a coffee addict but I cant bring myself to even imagine drinking something out of poop. Gross!


Anyways, I hope all coffee drinkers in the world can enjoy their favest cup of  today (yesterday for some)!


Here's my National Coffee day indulgence..

Shabu-shabu

Let me say this first... Finally, naka shabu-shabu din ako!!!

For quite sometime now, I have been making kulit the husband to try Shabu-shabu. I heard a dozen positive feedback about it plus the cooking-cooking is intriguing. 
Unexpectedly, our friends from Manila, took us to one during our trip there. Let me say, it was not just an ordinary Shabu-shabu experience, it was an EAT ALL YOU CAN! Imagine my happiness when I learned it was Eat-All-You-Can-Cook dba?! saya!!!


But ok, that's it. I promised that for this post, I will let the pictures narrate the experience. So here it is..

squid, shrimp, fish, crabs, variety of clams

chicken, pork and beef in spicy and non spicy bulgogi, terriyaki, curry, garlic marinade

There were veggies and different noodles for the Dashi and greens like Leaf Lettuce for the red meats.

There was a variety of sauces too, you can even invent your own sauce combo.


while waiting for me to get the other ingredients..

So, let the cooking begin!



 may hotdog din, ang stapple food ni Migz kaya saya rin nya!

 go Pa, cook!
 mukhang sarap ng seafood stew nila ah!
The only spoiler with this experience was that ang bilis kong nabusog! Aside from the get-all-you-can serving nila, they will serve you a hot pot with rice, stir fried mongo sprouts and beef, topped with sunnyside egg. Pinapak ko kasi yon while waiting for our soup to cook kaya bilis ko tuloy nabusog. Next time, deadma na yon food pot na yon. It was good, however there were a lot more yummy food na negligible na sya.

Must try ko din ang cookies and other ice cream flavors nila.

Next trip, mghuhunger strike ako before going there so I can enjoy more the food.

Seoul Garden is located at the 3rd floor of SM Annex,
