My First Cookfest!

I will never cook for anyone (unless it's my family or if he's a special someone lol) - that's what I initially thought :p

Nag-iba ang ihip ng hangin when I suddenly felt I needed some audience for taste testing. As they say, we have to start from somewhere. There's gotta be a first time. To bring it to the next level :p

Exclusive coverage photos from my flatmate:




My own verdict: just 70% passing! I was in a hurry, in a mess due to time pressure. Most of the dishes didnt turn out the way I expected them to be, or probably I knew I did cook better on previous attempts. I guess I'm more of a leisure cooker, cooking at my own pace. Iba yun alam mong may kakain, iba yun nageexperiment lng. I suddenly applaud the hawker chefs, how did manong manage to cook that plate of prawn hokkien mee with the same taste, same quality each and everytime, hindi pumapalya.

I suddenly feel there are people with fortunate jobs wherein they can work at their own pace without external pressure. Perhaps like recording a song (recording artist) or an author of a book, or even a photographer. I mean to some extent you have your personal space, and if u didnt like the output, you can always retry and retry until your craft reaches your own perfection.

Cooking is not easy, but I guess I have the passion. :)
