You feel like cooking. What do you make?: Depends on what I have in the pantry. Tonight, it was chicken kiev.

Do any foods remind you of someone?: One of my most favorite memories of my maternal grandmother is watching her (as a very young child) make chorizo in her kitchen. Freshly made piaya or roasted corn sa uma (at the farm). My first sushi experience at 12 which I hated. Smoked, grilled fish at the beach, Ling Nam noodles with my brother and sister, Dulcinea lattes on lazy sundays with my dad, my mom's paella dinners, my sister's homemade pizza, fresh oysters with my brother on our impulsive let's-go-to-the-beach brunches, violet crumble with AL, Tricia's cookies and Tita Au's chocolate cake (which brings joy --and pleas for the recipe-- to EVERYONE who eats it)

What was your favorite food as a child? roasted chicken, roasted eggplant, a lot of veggies, usually in soups or grilled/roasted
