Flavors of Asia Davao

I had an Asian gustatory journey at this new resto in town called the Flavors of Asia. I am lucky enough to join the exclusive dining experience with my friends from the Davao Bloggers Society last July 15. Chef Tatung Sarthou, a celebrity chef, author, and a culinary heritage advocate, showcased their dishes and that did not disappoint me. I've never been to Asia, but I think I already traveled to Korea, Malaysia, and Thailand without even leaving the country or shall I say, my seat.

Here are the dishes they prepared on our first visit.

Flavors of Asia Davao - Chicken Satay
Chicken Satay P210
Flavors of Asia Davao - Shrimp Cakes

Flavors of Asia Davao - Bagoong Fried Rice

Flavors of Asia Davao - Kimchi Fried Rice
Kimchi Fried Rice P190
Flavors of Asia Davao - Pandan Wrapped Fried Chicken
Pandan Wrapped Fried Chicken P240

Flavors of Asia Davao - Red Chicken Curry
Red Chicken Curry P290
Flavors of Asia Davao - Stir Fried Clams with Bean Sprouts

Flavors of Asia Davao - Sticky Pork Riblets with Lychee

Flavors of Asia Davao - Korean Beef Stew

Each food they served was delicious. My top three favorites were Nasi Goreng, Bagoong Fried Rice, and Kimchi Fried Rice. I would also recommend the Pad Thai and Korean Beef Stew. Thinking about it makes me hungry. I have friends who already traveled to different countries in Asia and I would love to bring them here so they can eat Asian dishes again without even leaving the country.

2017 Starbucks Pilipinas Card

I know that summer just ended but Starbucks is giving us an indulgent and refreshing spin with their newest Frappuccino® flavors - Açai Mixed Berry Yogurt Frappuccino® blended beverage and Granola Dark Mocha Frappuccino® blended beverage. These handcrafted beverages will surely delight us with frothy milk foam over fruity and chocolaty yum!

The Açai Mixed Berry Yogurt Frappuccino® blended beverage combines Açai berry-infused yogurt with bursting pearls that will delight you with the distinct and refreshing notes of mixed berry, finished with a light and creamy milk foam.

Meanwhile, the Granola Dark Mocha Frappuccino® blended beverage is a marriage of Starbucks Coffee Frappuccino® with rich, chocolate flavors and a tasty blend of hearty cereal. It is topped with creamy milk foam and then sprinkled with a generous topping of crunchy granola and chunks of mixed fruits.

These two handcrafted beverages are so colorful and good for your #SelfieGoals and #FeedGoals.

“Our customers can look forward to refreshing new tastes and ingredients that haven’t been featured before such as the crunchy granola toppings and Açai berry-infused yogurt. These two new Frappuccino® blended beverages are artfully handcrafted with its fun layers and textures making it the perfect beverages to have this season,”
said Keith Cole, head of marketing for Starbucks Philippines.

Starbucks also has new blends that deliver the flavors of the world in each cup. Starbucks Africa Kitamu® gives a wonderful introduction to the bright and juicy flavors that define coffee from Africa. This blend is perfect whether served hot or over ice and is made by combining East African beans that are known for their refreshing citrus and floral flavors. Starbucks Reserve® Guatemala Santa Isabel, on the other hand, is distinguished by fragrant aromas and pronounced sweetness with notes of tamarind, caramel, and chocolate. For those looking for coffee with sweet herbal spice notes, Starbucks Reserve® Eastern D.R. Congo Lake Kivu is the one you’re looking for. Its orange acidity, also makes each cup more compelling.

       


To complement your favorite handcrafted beverages, Starbucks also has a new line of delectable and filling meals. With hearty tuna flakes, mozzarella cheese and sliced hard-boiled eggs served on whole wheat bread, Tuna Dill on Whole Wheat Bread, is the perfect option for a quick lunch or snack.


For a savory take on crepe, you’ll surely enjoy Bacon and Mushroom on Dutch Crepe—soft, chewy, and sweet Dutch crepe filled with honey cured bacon and sliced mushrooms. 


For those with a sweet tooth, the Belgian Chocolate Chip Cake is the best way to satiate your chocolate craving. This returning favorite is made with layers of vanilla sponge cake with chocolate chips, milk chocolate ganache, and frosted Belgian milk chocolate with mini chocolate chip cookies on the sides. Starbucks is also serving up a beloved Italian dessert with its own take on Tiramisu, sponge cake soaked in Starbucks Coffee, layered with a light and airy filling made from mascarpone, egg yolks, and cream.


To have a taste of these new and limited offerings, visit any Starbucks store near you starting July 25.

Starbucks has since won the hearts of the Filipinos. The opening of the 6750 Ayala store marked an important milestone in our history – the Philippines became the third market to open outside North America.
