Manila Five Eight

Manila Five Eight

A transplant from Manila to Northern California. I tap into my roots when I blog about food, people, places, and events of my here and now. I see the world through these filters: family and culture (both sides of the Pacific), food and drink, religion and education (Catholic), and livelihood (writer and PR professional).

Manila Five Eight's Blogs

East and West

I write at work and I blog at home, about the work I do, the events and things that I experience, the food and drinks I explore, my family and friends.

I just posted a recipe for Chimichurri Sauce on my East and West blog (http://manila58.wordpress.com/2011/08/19/chimichurri-sauce/). A recipe for Argentine-style beef ribs will follow very soon. Both recipes inspired by the ribs at Rustic, the Coppola winery restaurant in Geyserville. Please visit, rate, comment, and spread the word! Thanks!
