Carmina's review on Summit Hotel in Tacloban

Last year my dad had informed me he will be getting married in Tacloban the place his wife grew up in the Philippines . My dad said he would like all of his family members to attend since they couldn't go to the one in the United States. Carmina booked her flight during Philippine Airlines ’ year-end sale at the start of 2026. I told my dad about my travel plans for a short trip from Friday, April 17 to Sunday, April 19.

Carmina's New Version Bacon Carbonara Recipe

Someone once informed me that they don't add any cream or milk in their bacon carbonara. I decided to try what I had in my kitchen. Carmina's New Version Bacon Carbonara Recipe Ingredients: Cooked Bacon (chopped up) Any type of pasta noodles (drained and cooked) Any cheese (shredded) Any brand (butter) 4 Pieces of Eggs (scrambled) Black Pepper to taste Salt to taste Cooking Instructions: Cook the pasta noodles while it was in boiling water being cooked. I went ahead and started scrambling four pieces of eggs in a bowl using a fork.  I had sprinkled some black pepper and salt to the eggs. The pasta noodles were already drained and cooked place it in a container began transferring the eggs, butter and shredded cheese together.  I add the chopped-up bacon mixing it together. It was very easy to those who didn't have that many ingredients in their home. NOT SPONSORED. Subscribe @ Carmina Lifestyle YouTube Channel  a place to look, discover and share.
