Food Tasting at Pepper & Peppers
A food tasting event was sponsored by Avatar Media last February 17, 2011 at Pepper and Peppers, a small restaurant located at The Site, Jacinto Extension, Davao City. The Davao Bloggers were invited to take part in the activity and be acquainted with the resto’s hearty dishes. With me are blogger friends Kathy and Alma.
I am not a photographer and I only brought with a mobile phone with a crappy cam so just bear with these images I let Alma took during the event.
Pepper and Peppers served Iberian Chicken, Caesar Salad, Pumpkin Soup, Beef Salpicao, Crispy Fried Steak, Bagnet, Seafood Pasta, and Baby Back Ribs, and Brownie Ala Mode for dessert.
I am allergic to crustaceans and some seafoods so the pasta is out of my list. I was kinda intriqued with the bagnet since Kathy also told me that that dish is something I should not miss. Chef Chiqui, the store manager, then revealed to us how this recipe is done and the process is quite challenging. No wonder the taste is just exquisite. It’s deep fried pork belly with a unique kick. I am not a food critique so I don’t know the proper terms.
And on to my faves. Aside from the bagnet, I also looove the pumpkin soup. I just couldn’t get enough of it. That is probably the first thing I am gonna order when I go back to Peppers. The Iberian Chicken, Caesar Salad, and the Brownie Ala Mode were all caressing my palate in a good way. They were uber-delicious.
The activity was not just about digging in though I know we were all excited to get to that part. Ria, the VP of Davao Bloggers also shared to us some tips on how to create a kick-ass food blog. All in all, the activity was both filling to our grumbling tummies and to our hungry blogger instincts.
