Top 5 Best Bicolano Dishes (Authentic Recipes)

Laing

1. Laing

When we visited the Caramoan Islands in Camarines Sur, as part of our itinerary, we tasted their very own and authentic dishes. I am not a chef or a cook, but according to some friends, I have good and active taste buds. Taray diba??? For the first time, I will be a food critic. First is the famous Laing. This is a spicy dish with dried taro or gabi leaves, siling labuyo, and coconut milk as the main ingredients. There's a linamanam factor, and the texture is smooth inside my mouth. To compare, my Nanay prepares young and fresh gabi leaves (grated), and adds dried tuyo to add saltiness and a unique aftertaste. Nonetheless, the Laging dish of the Bicolano is really good.

BIR: Guide to Changing or Updating Your RDO

BIR Updating RDO
I processed my employment documents that include Pag-Ibig and my tax updates (RDO and Tax Exempt). I have been working for more than five years now, and it's my first time processing these documents, and it's not a good experience. Since I previously worked for a BPO in Mandaluyong City (RDO: 041), I headed to the BIR Office in Boni to have my BIR Form 1905 stamped. Upon submitting to the clerk, he informed me that my record was already with RDO: 43A in Shaw (near SSS and Pag-Ibig), so I rode on MRT from Boni to MRT Shaw, then on Shaw Boulevard, I rode in a jeepney with “Pasig, Palengke” signboard. Get off in front of Pag-Ibig Bldg. (second Stop Light). Crossed the footbridge where BIR is located. Got the queue number from the guard and waited for my turn.

NBI Clearance Renewal Guide
I processed my  NBI Clearance yesterday, and the change just came! My original plan yesterday was just to make a payment at LBC in Robinsons Metro East.

Shin Ramyun, Best Korean Noodle in the Market

Shin Ramyun
BER months are almost here, meaning holiday is coming to town. Since it's holiday, I will be now posting foods on Sirang Lente, starting with the famous Shin Ramyun. I was influenced by the Korean dramas I've watched, from Descendants of the Sun, Doctors, W, Cinderella and the Four Knights and many more. Kimchi, Korean noodles and Soju are always part of their eating and drinking scenes, so I tried this.

Darwin Dalisay gave his hair to a progeria patient.

Darwin Dalisay gave his hair to Rochelle, a progeria patient.
Almost a year ago, I cut my precious and beautiful hair. It was a remarkable decision. I gave my hair to a young and stunning lady who turned 18. She is Rochelle, a progeria patient. According to Wikipedia, Progeria is a specific type of progeroid syndrome, also known as Hutchinson–Gilford syndrome or Hutchinson–Gilford progeroid syndrome. A single gene mutation is responsible for causing progeria. The affected gene, known as lamin A, makes a protein necessary for holding the cell nucleus together. In short, it is a rare and fatal genetic condition in children that causes rapid aging.
