Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand. She wanted it as her main meal, but because of the mix-up and feeling hungry, she took a piece of Carmina’s Turkey Club Sandwich and asked for the bacon on the side. I didn’t expect the turkey to be just one piece, and the bread was toasted so hard that it removed one layer of the sandwich. Since ...

Bataan’s Best Tinapang Kapak or Banak and Amanda's Dried Herring Tuyo in Corn Oil



Mom Violy wasn't content with her smoked fish. There was something else she wanted to find. Mom Vioy asked her daughter to look if she can find Tinapa Kapak Fish. Mom Violy kept telling Carmina it is not dried. 

Carmina couldn't seem to understand what the fish was that mom Violy was looking for but didn't stop her to look for it.

Carmina had searched online to see what is the Tinapa Kapak was and how does it even look like to figure it out.

Mom Violy keeps telling Carmina I always purchase at the Public Market in Balanga, Bataan when we're able to go out.

Yet, Carmina still couldn't understand what Mom Violy was referring too. Carmina had shared from other sellers who have sold the fish she had mentioned.

Mom Violy kept saying that is not the one or maybe no one sells it online.

Next day came around and Carmina went ahead to dig harder to see if she can find what Tinapa Kapak was somewhere else.

Guess what?

Carmina was able to find it from a clear mind the person who sold the Tinapang Kapak or Banak is from Foodiva Online Lazada Philippines.

Reason why Carmina had a hard time finding it for one thing the name Mom Violy was incorrect. Mom Violy had to write it down for her to remember when the time comes in the future.

Foodiva Online Lazada Philippines has noted the Bataan’s Best Tinapang Kapak or Banak sold for 500 grams for PHP 250.00 ($3.00) not including shipping and handling.



The best part the Tinapang Kapak or Banak is vacuum sealed being delivered to your location.

Mom Violy wanted to purchase other items sold from Foodiva Carmina had shared it to her in Facebook Messenger to do her own shopping.

Mom Violy wanted to try the Amanda's Tuyo in corn oil that comes in a bottle sold for PHP 125.00 ($2.50).





Everything had arrived being wrapped up in newspaper to prevent smelling during the process being delivered to your location.

The best part nothing was broken during the process arriving at your location. It was well wrapped with packaging tape.

Mom Violy is happy that in the meantime she can't go out Carmina can still purchase the fish she loves to eat.
