Appetizing Snacks for the Week

I just want to share the photos of snacks that keeps me busy lastweek. I wanted to make BIKO but, I saw how to make LATIK in youtube video. That sweetness is all I need for the steamed MALAGKIT. I sprinkled with some nuts and boy, I was a happy camper.

While visiting Missouri and actually able to shop in an Amish Store, I was looking for macaroni salad. I bought a tiny pack but, when I tasted the food, it was not as delicious as the photo below. Last Tuesday, hubby and I went to WalMart just to buy the Amish Macaroni Salad. The taste is sweet but, not overpowering. Check it out at WalMart and this yummy macaroni salad can be found near the Deli area.

These are home baked cinnammon rolls. It is so easy to prepare and the brand is Pillsbury.

If you check out the frozen aile in any grocery stores, you can buy these yummy cheese sticks. Eat it while it is hot because it could turn into gummy when it is cold (wink)!

These snacks simply fills my growling tummy. What's yours? Share it here. I love to read it. Thanks for stopping by.

Home Cooked Meals Are Always Good

Every other afternoon when hubby and I feel like eating ribs, we are grilling and feasting food in our backyard. Having to fix dinner at home is more fun. When we live in Mississippi, we dine out every day especially breakfast and dinner. I was working on a graveyard shift so; before we hit home, we had our breakfast at Satisfaction Buffet at Hardrock casino and hotel or at The Buffet in Isle Casino and Hotel or at the Beau Rivage.

Food is always great and don't get me wrong, less than $13 for two is not bad spending. The buffet in the casinos in Biloxi Mississippi is affordable. I sleep all day and would wake up for lunch. Usually, my father-in-law would treat us for a fine dining or to a Chinese restaurant. Most of the people in that Chinese Restaurant knew us and would always direct us to our favorite area. We go home and I would go back to sleep and woke up for dinner time. Casinos are like 10 minutes away and their buffets have tons of selections to be festive so; that was our life.

At 10 PM, I go to my workplace which is also a casino. Food is free and we have our own cook so; we can request for hot meals. Though I was eating a lot, I maintain below 100 lbs. Anyway, we enjoyed our kitchen and we love to cook. We baked our foods and grilled baby back ribs a lot. Home cooked meals are always good and no worries coz we do workout (*-*). This is my entry for this week's Yummy Sunday.

Back to Grilling

I am almost done doing the DIY patio and hubby is preparing dinner from the grill. I thought I will be done in four days but, the weather halted my project. There were gusty winds yesterday and I thought, it would blow off the newly put-up canopy. Glad, it made it! When TS Isaac passes by the Florida territory, we took down the canopy for at least 3 days. Yesterday was already 91 degrees and no sign of Isaac but, there was few isolated rain bands left by Isaac. It was about 20 minutes but, nasty. Whewww, it scared me. Up to today, there are pretty decent showers from time to time. Anyway, that will not stop us from grilling!

Grilling

Hubby and I love to use our grill and when we crave for baby back ribs, we just hit Publix nearby and buy a nicely cut and fresh ribs. We usually seasoned the ribs with Chinese herbs and spices, boil it and when it's already half cook, we grill it to finish up. We have slices of grilled onions, green pepper and red tomatoes for a side dish. We usually cannot eat this in one meal. But, to make the most of the charcoal we grilled pound of ribs and sausages. Let's chow peeps! Looks like a dry rub huh? I eat mine like this and I do not need a barbecue sauce but, hubby did. The meat is so tender and most of the bones will separate from the meat. Yum!

Romano's Macaroni Grill

The other day, we went to Waterford Lakes and just roamed around the area. We visited few of the boutiques, grocery and apparel stores. By lunch, we were looking for a new place to dine in. We decided to check out ROMANO'S MACARONI GRILL. The ambiance was great and I felt the Italian feel. Here's what happened while we dine in at 315 North Alafaya Trail, Orlando Florida 32828.

Hubby ordered Eggplant Parmigiana which looks pleasant and the taste is very good. It's a huge portion too which my husband enjoyed the whole time! He hated the side pasta which is capellini, thin hair pasta. He ate the eggplant and not the pasta. He never asked for a box, it just taste awful! Our friend ordered Spaghetti Bolognes which she totally enjoyed and finished it completely. The only complain she had was the waiter never came back on us to check if we enjoyed the food and no refill for our drinks and roll. My order was Pollo Caprese which is a juicy chicken grilled with extra virgin oil served with capellini pomodoro with fresh mozzarella. My chicken was first of all NOT JUICY and it's TOUGH to slice using the table knife. I can see that it's a frozen pork and what happened when you cook a frozen meat into grill? TOUGH! I don't like thin hair pasta but, my bad it's too late to know the word behind CAPELLINI, LOL! I ate 10% of the food and i never enjoyed my tough grilled chicken with only 2 small pieces of mozarella. The presentation is bad because the chicken lay on the withered parsley. Geez! If I have to go back to this specific restaurant? NO! If I have to order this entree? NO! I might visit the other location though, check some other menu. The service we had is simply BAD!
