Dining Review

Tus Clay Pots and Skillets

 
The interiors are earthy and rustic. With substantial chairs and crosscuts of different trees

View from the Top: The interiors are earthy and rustic. I like the accent wall with cross sections of different trees

My friend Jane knows all the right places to eat. I love asking her about places to go that are near by and I love visiting these recommended establishments even more so in her company. We have come to grow and nurture our friendship into more than just our first label of New Found Friends, and we have grown into a fun little circle with neighbors, Patty and Joei. We like to eat out and explore joints here in the South with each other and on occasion with our partners too.

After seeing Jane’s recent post on Instagram where she held a calzone the size of an entire cutting board from TUS (like so much bigger than anything I have ever seen before) I had to ask her where this place was and how the food was!

 

LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT CALZONE!

There is an area upstairs that is a bit more private. I imagine having a small get together in this area. Its big enough but still cozy.

She is always very quick to share information and dishes to try and through her kwentos she mentioned that Krsna and Kai had just come out with some breakfast dishes that we all might want to try together.

TUS’ means “YOURS” in Spanish. Potato Onion and Cheese Frittata served with buttered toast

 As you well know, brunch is my most favorite meal of the day, especially if it’s a leisurely brunch on a Saturday or Sunday.

OMG. This was my favorite dish of the day besides the cookie of course.

OMG. This was my favorite dish of the day besides the cookie of course. This perfectly seasoned Pulled Pork is slow cooked (as pulled pork should be) and topped with a house made slaw that complimented the flavors and spices of the pork.

 Truth: My weekends have not been leisurely approached since I have encouraged my children to involve themselves in sports. This means we are usually at sporting events bright and early leaving little time to take time out for brunch…

This Spicy Beef Gozleme had just the right bit of kick and spice balanced with cheese and garlic. Gozleme is a savory tradition pastry dish made of hand-rolled dough that is filled wi

This Spicy Beef Gozleme had just the right bit of kick and spice balanced with cheese and garlic. Gozleme is a savory traditional pastry dough that is hand-rolled and filled with different types of ingredients.

But this day, we made a point of it. And I’m so glad that we did!

Tus is right in the neighborhood and it’s easy to park. After meeting Kai Sason and Krsna Algenio, I did a little bit of research and learned that they are really from the south. This is why they knew they had to open their very first business together here in Alabang…

Egg Salad and Asparagus sandwich served with pan seared tomatoes and basil on the side

Chef Krsna sent out a bunch of breakfast and brunch dishes for us to try. I can honestly say I enjoyed all of them, but I DID enjoy a few more than others.

IMG_9933

The Hot Chicken Sandwich with Jalepenos is a pan seared chicken fillet topped with romaine lettuce, cheese, and red onions. I like that the jalepenos are served on the side so you can determine just how much kick you would like.

IMG_9952

Is there anything better than spinach and bacon together? Pictured here is the Bacon and Spinach Frittata. The word Frittata is derived from Italian and roughly translates to “egg cake.”

If all the kids were with me, I know they would enjoy the entire pitcher of this yummy Pineapple Float.

IMG_9906

Delicious as it was, I would probably give my kids a choice as I always do. I don’t like them to indulge in too many sweets at one meal. This means that I would ask them if they want the Pineapple Float OR the Chocolate Cookie…I think having both during the same meal might mean sugar overload.

IMG_9953

Bacon and Egg Skillet comes with buttered toast, a roasted tomato and a healthy serving of beans.

All breakfast skillets are served with egg, roasted tomatoes and baked beans. You have a choice of toast with butter, plain rice, or their signature steak fat fried rice. Keep in mind if you want to go for breakfast that it is only served until 10:30 am.

 

IMG_9883

These guys…I love that they have found a friendship of their own because Jane and I enjoy spending time together! Thanks guys 🙂 We love you for it!

IMG_9958

Tus’ half baked cookie is their signature dessert. Ask anyone who has had it and they will tell you it is a “MUST HAVE” when you visit.

 Tus’ Clay Pots and Skillets is a great neighborhood restaurant that I would definitely visit again. I think the next time we go back, I will be looking for that CALZONE!!!

Thank you Chef Krsna and Kai for having us! We are looking forward to bringing the whole family back real soon.

It’s December 1st! Is there anything more delic It’s December 1st!

Is there anything more delicious than the smell of Christmas and the new found freedom as we anticipate celebrating the holidays with our families again?

@festivalmall has hosted a series of musical shows since November 5th that include Ace Banzuelo and Silent Sanctuary. Check out Michael Pangilinan on December 10th, too!

With Santa visiting, Christmas parties, arts and crafts and lots of promos, you can even enter for a chance to win a Toyota Fortuner!

Best of all-I love it when the places we know give purpose to their celebrations. Thank you #FestivalMall for partnering with @dsapi1  this holiday season. 

Thank you for sharing all the different ways we can celebrate the holidays with you!

I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Th I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Through this learning exercise with @usapeecphl, I have learned a bit more about these little birds that have bigger breast parts, and thank you Chef @ivoryyat for showing me how easy it is to prepare Greek Lemon Roasted Cornish Hens with Roasted Potatoes.
 
Clean and fresh flavors are perfect for these smaller birds that are rich in protein with zero carbs. Try the recipe in the comments section. I’m sure you’d enjoy it as much as I did!
 
Interested in U.S. Cornish Hens? You can buy them in stores near you. #CornishHen #USCornishHen #PoultryPerfection #CookingWithUSPoultry #USPoultry #USAPEECPHL #ad
@gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @pura @gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @puratosph products that they sent over the other day. Ready to use Bavarian Cream made these Cream Puffs easier than ever. I think we have to figure out how to temper our couverture better…

@mommymundo always has a way of bringing together @mommymundo always has a way of bringing together just what we need, no matter the time of year. Loving these photos of my first boy that were snapped @expomom.

Anyone else thinking about #HolidayPhotos? I am not one of those moms that has it all together before Christmas. It’s usually a mad dash for us at the end of the year, but if it’s anything that the past few years has taught me, it’s that the little things are what makes the Christmas special.

Many of us haven’t been together with the extended family or even our immediate family in so long. That means it’s the perfect time to document.

@nextbymetrophoto will be hosting one last Christmas Marathon family photo shoot before the end of year. Check them out or shoot them a message. They have some cute set-ups.
****GIVEAWAY ALERT*** 10 things I LOVE about @sed ****GIVEAWAY ALERT***

10 things I LOVE about @sedahotels listed here and on FB!

1. Each property has a Signature Dish. If you can’t make it to Bacolod, you can still enjoy Chicken Inasal in any of their properties.

2. Clean Design. So easy to work and play in a space that is light, modern, and clean in design. 

3. Beautiful views. Every chance I got, I would sit outside at @straightupatseda. 

4. Spacious Rooms and Residence Stays. Staying in the Three Bedroom Premier was perfect for our family. 

5. Attentive Service. Everyone was pleasant and accommodating.

6. Centrally Located. If you are thinking of fun things to do in Makati and want a home base, Seda Residences Makati is near a few of the museums, parks, and malls.

7. Work with ease. Internet service is uninterrupted. Meeting rooms are available and easy to book.

8. Relax and Play. From mid-day tubbies with Gelli to, taking advantage of the pool, or the children’s room, the little girl had more than enough things to keep her busy!

9. #FamilyTime. Spending an extended amount of time outside our own space led to laughter, fun conversations, and opportunities to try new things. We were comfortable and rested in the space we were in, which meant more opportunities for us to connect.

10. Homegrown with a Purpose. A Filipino brand that understands the importance of both work and travel, each property is important to the city & province location. Environmentally aware by adopting Mayumi, a Philippine Bald Eagle. 🦅

Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at this time of year? Whole turkeys require serious commitment to cook. #IYKYK But because U.S. Poultry is now available here in the Philippines, that also means preparing turkey is a tad bit easier.
 
Frozen U.S. turkey products are available and ready to cook for people who want to dabble with flavors for this bigger bird but aren't sure how.
 
Thank you to Chef @ivoryyat for putting together a medley of my favorite fall flavors. This combination of apples, sweet potatoes, and maple syrup perfectly compliment  the roasted turkey leg and remind me of flavors and scenes from back in New York. 
 
@usapeecphl l has the highest standards that follow USDA requirements which are certified safe before shipping to the Philippines. Get them in stores near you.
