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.

I have developed such a sweet craving for anything with mangoes lately, at the forefront of it all is the mango tart from Conti’s. It’s a seasonal product of theirs so I take advantage everytime it is available. I am going to worry about fitting into my street wear costume for an upcoming show after I have fulfilled my craving.

The heat has been unbearable lately – even if we have been living in an otherwise cool place (we are up in the mountains). This has led me to snacking a lot coupled with ice-cold water and soda (particularly Coke Zero) – bad, I know. I can only imagine how hot it is in the city. Motorists going through traffic in their motorcycle helmets and clothed from head to toe is such a sore sight to see, I cannot imagine how uncomfortable they are – they are all candidates for a heat stroke!
Some of the snacks I have been enjoying:
Sweet Corn + Butter + Salt
We usually eat and hang out at Figaro once a week, simply because it’s the only available restaurant that is air-conditioned and has wi-fi when my daughter has her therapy every week. I have mastered their menu down pat, and I can order with my eyes closed already! Aside from the building housing the cheapest place to buy cigars, we usually just savor the good airconditioning of the building, particularly Figaro. Summer heat can be deadly these days.
Here are some of the stuff we usually order:
Mushroom with Cheese Bakes | Pasta Al Chorizo
