Garlic cheese focaccia

Garlic Cheese Focaccia with Checca

I was faint from hunger while waiting for my newly-married friend [and hubby] at CPK-Greenbelt.  Apparently, they were caught in a Makati traffic jam. My lifesaver was an Italian-style pizza bread topped with Mozzarella cheese, garlic and herbs, hearth-baked and served with a combination of fresh tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic and evoo. By the time the couple arrived, I already finished off four slices of focaccia!  As for the rest of our food...I got a bit shy to take photos--it was my first meeting with my friend's husband, I didn't want him to think I'm a camera-freak. *LOL*


P.S.  I'm having a hard time uploading photos.  Is it just me, or are you experiencing it as well?

Pizza perfect

I was shoe-shopping at the mall last week when the aroma of pizza hit me.  Didn't want to eat pizza alone so I called a pizza-loving friend [who swore she's on diet] to join me at CPK.  It didn't take much to tempt her and we finished off the 6 slices of Pepperoni Supremo.  It's one of CPK's thin crust pizzas with Italian pomodoro sauce, pepperoni, mozzarella, Parmesan and fresh mozzarella cheeses, topped with fresh herbs.  I am not a pizza connoisseur but this pizza was one of the best pizzas I've had in recent memory!   Or probably because I only eat pizza on rare occasions.  Pepperoni Supremo is a bit spicy [which I love], and although 2 slices are usually my maximum, I reached for the 3rd slice instead of ordering dessert.

But before pizza was shoveled into a pair of maws, we had the Original BBQ Chicken Chopped salad--a balm for a guilty conscience.

The salad and pizza gave me enough energy to chop wood.  Burned it off by walking around the mall for the next two hours and not using the escalators/elevators.  

Don't blame me, shoe shopping does make people hungry!:p
