🇦🇹HELLO VIENNA | GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE AT TACO MEXICAN RESTAURANT AT SHOPPING CITY SÜD

👩‍🍳Coming back to Vienna after six weeks’ vacation from the Philippines. We had our Breakfast at Le Crobag. Because I landed at the airport at seven in the morning. Then we went shopping until the afternoon. After shopping, we had our dinner at Taco Mexican Restaurant in Shopping City Süd. Large selection of food and drinks. The dishes are prepared quickly and are of good quality. Value for money is absolutely fine. A visit can be recommended with a clear conscience. Another Gastronomic Adventure the whole day.

🇨🇳SWEET & VINEGAR SPARERIBS alla CHINESE PROVINCIAL CUISINE 👩🏼‍🍳iCook

👩‍🍳The vinegar helps to tenderize the spareribs. It may also improve the flavor but not soaking the ribs straight in vinegar too long. It can give the ribs an indulgent texture that keeps me coming back for more to eat. For color contrast, I added carrot and green chili. Turn out not a dry bit of sauce and the meat is tender and juicy. Hubby loves it. Fried trout is an additional viand for today because hubby is leaving for a vacation to the Philippines. So I’m not gonna cook for lunch whatever left will be for tonight’s dinner then.

YOU NEED…….

some Olive Oil or any vegetable oil

a thumb-sized Ginger

5 cloves Garlic

1 Carrot

1kg Spareribs

half a cup of Water

1 piece of Green Chili, spicy or not spicy

some Salt

1 pouch of Sweet and Sour Vinegar for Spareribs, sauce alla Chinese Provencial Cuisine

Scallions

FOR FRIED TROUT:

2 pieces Trout

Salt

🌏🇵🇭TEMPURA STUFF AND VEGGIES WITH SHRIMP👩🏻‍🍳iCook

👩‍🍳Tempura batter is very easy and versatile for dipping and deep-frying fruits, meats, and vegetables. Just like here, using tempura for chicken spam and surimi. Surimi is a solid mass of minced fish. About 900 years ago it was discovered in Japan that minced fish, cooked and jellied with sugar, has a longer shelf life. More info about surimi, the basic substance for seafood imitations is surimi, a protein mass made from fish. This is salted and solidified by heat with the addition of egg white or starch. Anyway, I also cooked vegetables with shrimp. I was complaining all the way while cooking because the vegetables produce liquid but it turned out good.

YOU NEED…….

1 pack Surimi, Crab Sticks

1 Can Chicken Spam

1 pack of Roasted Seaweeds

Tempura Batter

4 cakes of Tofu

Vegetable Oil for frying

FOR SHRIMP VEGGIES:

100g Beans Sprout, Togue

1 Sweet Potato, small purple

Napa Cabbage

1/4 head Cabbage

300g Shrimps

4 cloves Garlic

2tbsps. Soy Sauce

2tbsps. Oyster Sauce

1tbsp. Linseed Oil

🇵🇭HAPUNAN-DINNER-ABENDESSEN WITH MY HOME PREP MEAL

HOW TO…….

👩‍🍳The best time for dinner is between 5pm and 7pm. This gives the stomach and intestines enough time to digest the food they eat before the metabolism switches to sleep mode at night. The stress of the day is over, and the work is done. But in our case, if you are working from 11:30 before noontime until 10pm then you travel on the way home we need almost 30 minutes. Arrive at home almost half an hour before 11 pm then I have to cook for dinner. But luckily tonight I was already at around 6 pm so I have enough time to prepare our meal. So for tonight’s meal every Filipino, sinigang with Sea Bream and Shrimps, and fried squid. For dessert, I made a fruit cocktail with sour cream and grapes. Hubby is happy and of course my tummy too. I love the vegetables that it goes with this viand. happy prepping everyone.

YOU NEED…….

1 Sea Bream

2oog Shrimp

a bunch of Spinach

3 Chilis

2 pieces of eggplant, small

some Water

2 tbsps. Sinigang Seasoning

Salt to taste

FOR DESSERT:

1 can of Fruit Cocktail

🇪🇺PERCH FISH 🐟 AND BROCCOLI 🥦 – 👩🏻‍🍳iCookiTravel-Dolly

Perch fish and Broccoli

👩‍🍳Perch is great to eat. Fish tastes good and it’s healthy. Experts say, eating seafood more than twice a week, for most people, can be healthful. “For most individuals, it’s fine to eat fish every day,” Perch is a common name for fish of the genus Perca, freshwater gamefish belonging to the family Percidae. Because many of these fish live in cold waters, the meat has a high-fat content and is rich in fatty acids—healthy polyunsaturated fats. But, they’re low in saturated fat and high in protein. These fish are also good sources of vitamin D, selenium, phosphorus, iron, and iodine.

YOU NEED…….

2pieces Perch Fish

Rosemary

Salt and Pepper

Chili Flakes

1 whole head Broccoli

some Olive Oil

some water

Rice for those who loves it as side dish

🇦🇹DINNER AT MOCHORITSCH GRIFFEN-RAST

👩‍🍳Mochoritsch – is not a conventional restaurant. It is a family-run inn with a heart, with products from their own fields. It forms a bridge to the south, where you can enjoy the alpine-Adriatic food culture. Coming back home from Tuscany, Italy we dropped by here to have our late lunch and dinner in one. I got my perch fish with potatoes and salad, while hubby had pork fillet with fries and salad too.

My hubby who meatatarian got this pork fillet with fries and salad as side dish. For him meat tastes really good than fish and vegetables. It provides precious protein, and it’s packed with fatty calories, an important consideration when food sources were precarious.

Perch fish and potatoes

Me the fish, seafoods and vegetables lover. I got perch fish again. eating this fish 5 days in a row.😅 I am a pescatarian, meaning term pescatarian was coined in the early 1990s and is a combination of the Italian word for fish, “Pesce,” and the word “vegetarian.”
