Carmina informed Mom Violy that she would visit her home on Saturday, November 8, 2025. She asked if Mom Violy wanted to go out for lunch and mentioned needing to do some grocery shopping due to an upcoming big storm. Mom Violy suggested trying Crisostomo, a Filipino restaurant inside Robinsons Magnolia. Carmina forwarded the menu for her to choose what she wanted to eat, while Carmina already knew her order. I chose pork barbeque served in a set of three pieces with a vinegar dipping sauce. I skipped rice and opted for lumpiang hubad, fresh lumpia without a wrapper, topped with peanut sauce. Mom Violy initially craved the classic Pinoy paella, but when it wasn’t available, she decided on sinigang na baboy with an extra serving of rice. A family member chose sisig with garlic rice.

Two years ago my visit in California my sister was on a diet while eating our dinner with the family member. My sister's rice was different than everyone else she had introduce me to Cauliflower rice that she had purchase in Trader's Joe.
My sister asked me if they had Cauliflower rice in the Philippines. It was my first time trying it and unaware if whether in the Philippines they had it or not.
In our household family members eat white rice or brown rice but never tried Cauliflower rice before although I am not much of a rice eater.
I have other family members who have served corn rice and black rice while I was visiting their home in the Philippines other than what my sister eats.
I was looking for healthy food to eat this time around for my early dinner. I came across finding something I wanted to try Eggplant Katsu with Cauliflower Rice from Rhian Ramos' Healthy Appetite for PHP 199.00 ($3.98) not including Grab Food delivery fee and tip to the rider.
I had requested to put the tonkatsu sauce on the side away not to get the eggplant katsu soggy. I had tried the tonkatsu sauce I felt it was sweet side prefer not to eat it.
There is radish, onion and carrots kind of pickled vegetables a bit sour although maybe if you like the tonkatsu it is suppose to balance out the flavor in your eggplant katsu with cauliflower rice.
For your reference you may check out the menu of Rian Ramos' Healthy Appetite to see what you can order and try something new for a change.
Note:
Carmina is not selling or advertising for Eggplant Katsu with Cauliflower Rice from Rhian Ramos' Healthy Appetite just wanted to go back and try Cauliflower Rice that my sister had introduce me too.
