LouieNep Food

Okay, here goes, my first meme. Funny because when I received the email from Karen I thought it was about my brother (his nickname is Me-me as in Jaime). Anyway here it is my Childhood Food Memories.

Asado de Carajay
This is my Mom’s special dish and my Dad’s favorite dish. We would have it often throughout my childhood but only on special occasions like birthdays. We always looked forward to it when my Mom would prepare it.

Cocido

We would always have Cocido every Sunday lunch. Everybody liked it and many of us liked Cocido because it turned into Ropa Bieja for dinner. We would always have it with rolls but my sister had to have her plain steamed rice. So it was always served with a choice of bread or rice. With lots of garlic-tomato sauce, olive oil and vinegar.

Dayap Popsicle

A few times a week in my early childhood I would wait for the Magnolia man with his dry ice box full of goodies. I would always get the Dayap Popsicles. Sometimes he wouldn’t have it and disappointedly I would choose anything else. I always chose the Dayap until it was no longer in production.

Robina’s Roast Rotisserie Chicken

As far as I can remember, this was the first fastfood I’ve ever had. It was chicken roasted in a Chinese sweet and sour sauce. This made the chicken have a lovely reddish tone.

Sarsi with egg (yolk only)

The first time I saw this was on Uncle Bob’s Lucky 7 Club on TV on channel 7. It made me so curious I had to try it. I would have it often for a while after that discovery.

To proceed with the meme, remove the blog at #1 from the following list and bump every one up one place; add your blog’s name in the #5 spot; link to each of the other blogs for the desired cross-pollination effect.
