		<description><![CDATA[<p>Panna Cotta is an Italian Dessert which means "cooked cream" according to wiki, the free encyclopedia.</p>
<p><img align="left" title="Panna Cotta" alt="Panna Cotta" src="http://images.maydiwa.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SNckugoKCGcAAGx2Lqw1/DSC-0020.JPG?et=xPb9qg1kpK9UH0nxwItfaA&#38;nmid=0" />Whenever we dine out especially at Italian restaurants I make sure I have room for dessert especially for Panna Cotta. So far there are only two restaurants in Makati that I love their Panna Cotta; Nielsens at Manila Peninsula and Carpaccio Ristorante in Yakal St.. I love their Panna Cotta simply because the texture and taste is perfect for me.</p>
<p>That is the challenge of making the Panna Cotta, achieving the perfect blend of cream, milk, and gelatin making it not too soft and not too hard.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<P><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2319/2058913170_fe5681d5c9_m.jpg" width="240" height="159" alt="Cotta Native Lechon Lucena Quezon" align=left border=0 hspace=5 />Lechon is arguably one of the favorite specialty foods for Filipinos in and outside of the Philippines. If the sight and smell of a whole pig roasted to perfection brings pleasure, what more the taste of it? I have tasted many types and variants of lechon from different places in the Philippines - from North to South - but last week it was my first time to taste the Native Lechon made by the Cotta family in Lucena City, Quezon Province.</p>
<P>Inside, read my attempt to describe the taste of the Cotta Native Lechon.  Crispy outside. Tender and juicy inside. Sounds like a commercial huh? I dare you to try Cotta Native Lechon and tell me if you think otherwise. Just take a look at the pictures of the lechon inside I guarantee you will want to taste this lechon, too.</p>]]></description>

<p align="justify"><img align="left" alt="Microwave popcorn" src="http://www.tsibog.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/popcorn.thumbnail.jpg" id="image111" title="Microwave popcorn" />Watching movies in your favorite  theatres is considered more enjoyable than viewing a pile of the  latest DVD series of your much-awaited shows and anthologies in your  pad.</p>
<p align="justify">Alas! It is movie theatre popcorn—the  missing ingredient for the ultimate satisfaction of movie viewing at  home. You miss the crunch and the buttery taste it fills your mouth  in every crunch. Due to the large market for fast, convenient, and  instant meals and snacks, anyone can enjoy movie theatre popcorn in  minutes.</p>

Tea is the next most popular drink to water. Just  like morning or mid-afternoon coffee breaks, drinking tea is usually  associated with healthy and satisfying rituals or get-togethers.</p>
<p align="justify">Different researches show that drinking approximately two to four  cups of tea per day may cut down the risk of developing cancers and  heart disease, and at the same time increase the level of antioxidants  in the body. In addition, a cup of tea can lessen the cravings for high  fat and sugar laden foods.</p>

Making crepes can utilize those leftovers in the refrigerator and transform them into another dish. Crepes vary according to their fillings. Fillings may be a dessert-like treat glazed with caramel, chocolate, or your choice of sauce or a sumptuous savory lunch/dinner packed with protein-rich meat and vegetables.<br />

How about  the merienda of cuchinta and coffee?</p>
