Scramble a childhood treat...

During my childhood days it was popularly known as the "iskrambol" it was usually sold in the streets usually near the schools.This is a popular street treat for kids because its cold ,colorful , sweet and its cheap.It is made up of ice shavings ,milk,vanilla extract flavoring ,sweetener and some red food coloring to obtain that pink color and usually topped with powdered milk .
Last Sunday when I'm about to go home I saw a long que inside a food court and then I saw its the "good ol' scramble" and then the next day I saw a stall inside a mall near my place so I decided to try it for reminiscin' sake.But I now I noticed that they tweak this treat a little bit by adding some chocolate and strawberry syrup,you can also add some of your toppings of choice like rice crispies,marshmallows,rainbow or choco sprinkles for a minimal fee of 4 pesos per add-on.For a price ranging from 7-17 pesos this surely a big hit for students and kids.As for the adults like me it brings back the sweet and colorful grade school memories.

As for this picture I let them put the powdered milk but for me I prefer not to have those.

Available and can be seen in SM malls.

Shin Ton Yon(Kiampong and litid)

Its already 2pm after a half day of toy and gadget window shopping last Wednesday in Greenhills I started to find a place to have lunch.Being bored with fast food and food court fare It took me a while to decide what to eat so I browsed and walked around the area and I chanced upon this Chinese deli joint named SHIN TON YON.The place has a distinct 80's Chinatown feel ,they offer Chinese deli like sausages and cold cuts as well as a variety of dishes and treats.Then I ordered a dish called as litid (tendon) to compliment the Kiampong(Chinese style rice).


I have tasted many varieties of this kind of fried rice.For me a real Kiampong must not be too sticky nor too plain and there has to be that unusual smoky flavor.Shin Ton Yon's Kiampong is filled with chopped scrambled eggs,pork and Chinese mushrooms and the taste is great and yet not too heavy nor light on the belly .Like this a lot!!

This dish reminds me of the old Chinese home style cooking ,it has julienned carrots and button mushrooms in sauce.The sauce has a very light and subtle taste but what I like about this is the texture of the tendons ,a jelly like character.Absolutely delish!
