Several years ago, I attended the Center of Culinary Arts’ Kitchen Discovery Class, where I got an inside view of the kitchen and had a fine lunch at Cravings. I haven’t been back to Cravings since then, but last night I got to attend the grand launch of a Filipino restaurant from the same group. C2 Classic Cuisine on Missouri Street, North Greenhills used to be an events place, but they decided to include a restaurant that serves classic Filipino dishes with a contemporary twist.
C2 Classic Cuisine made me enjoy certain Filipino foods I’m normally not too crazy about. For instance, there’s lumpiang hubad – I rarely ever eat it because there’s too much vegetables and too little meat. But the semi-sweet garlic sauce was too good to resist, and I ended up wolfing down my greens and slowly picking at it after the meal was done. The fried lumpia wrapper chips also adds texture and a touch of unhealthiness to the dish, and gets delightfully mooshy when you leave it in the sauce for too long.

Candy can be so much than a kiddie treat—that is, if you take it seriously.
And for the country’s leading confectionery, candy is definitely a serious business: Candy Corner hosted a banquet in Le Soufflé Rockwell Club to showcase candy creations inspired by Jelly Belly beans, the world’s #1 gourmet jelly bean. Ms. Bubu Andres, queen of the confectionery kingdom Candy Corner, hosted the event where attendees toasted with Jelly Belly Mocktails and Cocktails, ate desserts inspired by true-to-life Jelly Belly flavors, and admired the edible table masterpieces bursting with color and texture.
Who doesn’t love chocolate crinkles? Tell me you don’t enjoy munching on these chewy chocolate cookies and I’ll tell you that there’s probably something wrong with you. Or maybe you only think that way because you haven’t sampled HungryPac’s chocolate crinkles. Whereas most chocolate crinkles are a little too crunchy on the outside and not-so-soft on the inside, HungryPac’s crinkles are moist and gooey all throughout. Each cookie is topped with a think layer of powdered sugar and has the delicious consistency of fudge. And because its chewiness takes you a while to consume one cookie, you don’t have to worry about binging on an entire box. Eating one crinkle is enough to give you your chocolate kick.
If you’re ever in the Glorietta 4 food court, drop by the HungryPac stall and grab a chocolate crinkle for dessert. Better yet, visit Trinoma Dessert Haven where Hungrypac can be bought there till March 16.
You can also find HungryPac at 1601 C. Aguila Street, Manila.
