Pancit Molo

Pancit Molo is one of the favorite soup of my children. I think it’s the garlicky chicken flavored soup that makes it very enticing for children. The recipe is actually quite simple if you don’t make your own wanton wrapper. You can easily buy wanton wrapper at your favorite supermarket.

Filipino Christmas Carols for your Noche Buena

My daughter was mortified to know that doughnuts deep fried. Oh yes, so much fat. Whenever we buy doughnuts, we make sure it’s only done once a month. So much empty calories!
