I'm a food enthusiast. I love food. What you will read here are not the newest restaurants or the latest food trends. What you will find here are foods, recipes that I like, happen to eat, happen to love and would like to write about.
A self-confessed sweet tooth (choco-holic, Coke Addict and emotional eater), I'm trying to make healthier choices when it comes to eating, hence the name Salad Caper.
Read about my food trips, food loves {labs}, Tatak Pinoy foods and some occasional Food for Thought thrown in.
I hope you also join me in my weekly Q&As: Food Choices and Food For Thought.
These are the only pictures of the food I was able to take when we dined out at Dampa for my sister’s birthday. For a family of 8 (plus one toddler) we ate a feast – salmon and tuna sashimi, shrimp tempura, sinigang na baboy, inihaw na liempo, inihaw na pusit, baked tahong, [...]
And October is going to be one very busy month! We are starting off with the annual Christmas party of the MBAP mommies and their families, then the birthdays of my dad and father-in-law, a family gathering getaway on the third week of October and a lot more parties in between.

I’m not a fan of Japanese food but my family loves it so we are here (very) often. It is growing on me though. I just now need to learn how to use chopsticks!
I love love love Yellow Cab’s Charlie Chan pasta. I got curious about doing it myself since my husband told me my sister-in-law made this for them last Sunday and it tasted good. Maybe I can try cooking this too?

The last time I had a frap was three weeks ago – long gone are the days when I can have this everyday because Starbucks was just a few floors away from where I work. Now I need to travel 30 minutes with someone (since I do not drive) to be able to get [...]
Whenever we go to Starbucks so I can get my caffeine fix, my kids must get their donut fix. They absolutely love the donuts at Starbucks, especially when it is heated. They prefer the chocolate-glazed but the day the picture was taken (when we bought some moving boxes for storage of our old [...]
If we can save all the money that goes to eating at Jollibee every other weekend (and whenever the kids can cajole me into eating there), we most likely could have ordered those Naples Fl custom doors I saw online. We spend at least 500 pesos ($10) whenever we eat there [...]
If we are not eating at Jollibee or McDo (the kids’ favorites), you can find us at KFC. Honestly, I’m not really a fan of the three but my kids love fried chicken and their fries so what can I do. My husband needs rice too in every meal so it is best to [...]
