It was delicious!

Kimchi fried rice is my standard order when I eat at the Japanese-Korean stall in the UP Shopping Center. It's one of the places in the campus which is vegetarian-friendly.
To be vegetarian in the Philippines can simplify one's life because usually you only have very few choices if you eat out. If you cook your own food, you have to be creative otherwise you'll end up getting sick of what you eat.
I had dinner with two UP Filipiniana alumni friends and one commented that being vegetarian is boring. I begged to disagree of course. We were in the produce section of the supermarket when he said that.
"Look at all these vegetables," I said while pointing to all the fresh produce. I get excited whenever I'm in Hong Kong because of the abundance of fresh vegetables and the wide variety of seasonings available in the market. Unfortunately, one week is the longest time that I've stayed here so buying big bottles of vegetarian stir fry and chilli-garlic sauces is unwise.
