Kusinang Calambeno

I'm back!

Captured Chuy's first cooking competition outside the school on June 10, 2024 at the Rizal Coliseum. STI College Calamba was invited by the local municipality to compete for a main dish out of yamang dagat of the Laguna de Bay and a gourmet dessert. Chuy and his bestfriend Cy created the Gourmet Bilo bilo. Bilo Bilo is a traditional sweet dessert which originated from the Visayas province, it is made out of glutinous rice balls cooked in coconut milk. What made their dish gourmet is that the different ingredients were made into layers like sapin sapin, another local kakanin in the Philippines. They were coach by their very talented teacher, Mr. Francis Pine.

Kusinang Calambeno was an experience, think about it and learn about it, my son. My heartfelt gratitude also to Kuya Kim and Kuya Allan, Chuy's senior schoolmates that helped them too. I used here assorted scraps of patterned papers, DCWV patterned paper, ribbons, buttons, metal and cloth covered brads, DMC threads, stickers and washi tapes. 

Thanks for looking... as always.
