227/365: Margherita Pizza by Burgoo
| August 15, 2010 | 7:51 pm | food photography, Project 365 | No comments

My craving for Sandy’s Pizza’s margherita pizza drove me to grab the next best thing -Margherita Pizza by Burgoo, P295. It’s cheaper all right. But nothing close to how good Sandy’s Pizza make theirs. Just writing about this makes me want to drive to their Blue Ridge/White Plains branch. What’s frustrating about Sandy’s Pizza places is that they cannot accommodate a lot of patrons. And because they have the best pizza in the world, there was never an instance that the place is not packed.

210/365: Ginataang Kuhol
| July 29, 2010 | 11:34 pm | food photography, Project 365 | 1 Comment

This is one of the shots I took during the food event I attended a couple of weeks back – Ibayo by Barrio Fiesta. My Canon S90 was then a day old and I wasn’t yet too keen on using the manual setting. I took this shot of “Ginataang Kuhol” (snails cooked in coco milk) on Auto Mode. Fair shot for a point and shoot, right? No wonder this baby is being sold in the malls for ten grand more than I had bought my entry level Nikon dslr last year.

189/365: O’sonho’s Chocolate Ganache

I am a self confessed sweet tooth and this is my runaway favorite from the Portuguese restaurant, O’sonho – chocolate ganache.

It readily took care to top our meal when we last went to O’sonho. I could easily finish one serving all by myself. Read more »

161/365: Fall off the bone ribs

Food photography has always been a frustration of mine. And as you can see, there is no way I’m getting better at it especially when I’m not using the right gadgets. I used a 10.1 MP point and shoot in this picture, which explains all the grains. I have had the slr for a year now and I confess that it can be pretty heavy to lug around with. Read more »

129/365: Porterhouse steak at Hot Rocks

While I know I suck at food photography, here I am still trying hard. But apparently, not hard enough for me to use my dslr baby Nikki for this job. I used a Sony point and shoot and color corrected it of sorts via Lightroom.

70/365: Chicken Adobo
| March 11, 2010 | 6:56 pm | food photography, Project 365 | No comments

I cooked chicken adobo for dinner today. It has been a while since I last prepared this dish. I got the chicken marinated days back for for broiling. Changed my mind the last minute and voila! Adobo it is! I prepare my adobo the usual way and then I pour fresh milk when the sauce becomes thick. It’s yummier and creamier. :-)
