Who Am I
The main aim of my blog Food Rehab is to help introduce Filipino cuisine and culture to Australia and to document my quests to find the Best Breakfast in Melbourne. I also write about the enthusiasm I have for the food community we are so fortunate to have in this country- a diverse and endless range of eateries, our passion for fresh produce that supports farmers, food charities, renowned chefs/cooks and of course, amazing food bloggers. To read more about my passion for Filipino food, click here to read my interview with SBS Food.
Thank you!
I owe you my sincere gratitude for taking the time to visit my site homeboy/girl! I do hope you’ll stick around. If you tend to drool over what you read, I hope you’ll subscribe to to receive brand spanking new articles about none other than glorious food. You’ll notice from my style of writing that I don’t take myself all too seriously.
Short BIO
Born in the Philippines, my family moved to Australia in 1984 when I was two. By day, I work full time in the crazy world of digital advertising as an Operations Manager at Australia’s No.1 Automotive website.
I’m as obsessed about comics as I am about food which is why I tend to blend the two passions together as you can see in the cartoon strip illustrated on my blog header as well as within my posts.
By night I’m writing here. You’ll find Filipino recipes from my home provence or eating myself silly during my Breakfast Indigestion or Food Battles expeditions where I’d eat in as many eateries as possible within a few days just to find the best breakfast, steak, ramen or whatever comes to mind that week! Not too mention hanging out with Creamy the cat. Oh and Cookie the Beagle!
I don’t take myself too seriously and I don’t claim to be a professional critic nor do I write in that manner- just an enthusiast who’s spent too much time in the kitchen and has eaten his way through restaurants like a sweet tsunami.
Why Food Rehab?
Food Rehab formed as a result from friends telling me that I should be in rehab over my obsession with food and encouraged me to start a blog about it. You know the friend that you ask where to eat out for dinner? Well, in my circle, it happens to be me homeboy!
I’m based in Melbourne Australia – a city with so many bloody great choices. Other parts of the world I’ve ventured are New York, Japan, Philippines, San Fransisco, Hawaii and LA.
The shortest FAQ
Likes: Loves:
Butter and anything with butter. My friends still remind me of the time when I’d made popcorn with a pound of butter. Tamarind in oxtail soup, on its own and with fish. Steak = king.
Dislikes:
Artichokes, olives. Candlelit restaurants = bad photos.
