Twistix: Potatoes with a Twist!

I went to Robinson's Galleria today and caught a bit of the Women's World 10-ball championship. The lower floors were already filled with spectators so I just watched from the third floor balcony looking down. I chanced upon a food stall with a long line of customers. Seeing that people were lining up, I took my time and saw that it was a fairly new product [at least I haven't seen it before].



Wanting to try things out, I lined up and got the chance to see how the food was prepared. These are fresh potatoes [with the skin on, mind you] being sliced into their twisted ways and deep fried until it's nice and crispy. Flavor is added afterwards [choices include the typical potato add-ons such as cheese, barbeque, sour cream and a few others I did not bother checking out].



Awesome. It was really crunchy and had me craving for more. Too bad the queue was getting longer, and I had to go elsewhere at the moment, but this is a snack worth going to whenever I'm in the area.

Mister Donuts' Chocolate Muffins



I dropped by a nearby Mister Donuts store a few days ago with my girlfriend to have a few doughnuts and coffee for breakfast before going home. Aside from the typical holed treats that we got, I chanced upon some awesome chocolate muffins.



They are soooooooooo good. I munched on a couple of 'em and they're filled with chocolate goodness from top to bottom. Definitely not for the calorie-counters out there. But definitely worth a try, for sure!

Prologue

It's always a joy to be able to travel. If given the choice, I'd love to be able to travel at least once a quarter and experience the culture of each place through its food. Buildings, temples, and other tourist destinations have their appeal, but to me, the food is where it's at. From the street stalls to the restaurants, food has a way of defining one's culture.

This blog/journal details the places I go to, and the huge amount of food I consume along the way.
