Red Ribbon’s Creamy Carbonara

Carbonara is one of the absolute favorite dishes at home that I love to cook for my family. Whether we are celebrating a special occasion or we are just having something light for dinner, this is one dish that is on top of our list of favorites to have.

I have, in fact, been using the same recipe I got for years and I feel its time to do some modifications with the dish. I am not sure how the children and/or the hubby will react if I do so.

When I have tasted the new Red Ribbon‘s Creamy Carbonara though, I knew this is one dish that we should try as soon as the children get back from their vacation: this carbonara and the other newly improved meal being offered.

The creamy carbonara has, as a side dish, a slice of bread with herbs. The smell alone of this bread is reaaaally good.Yes, I smelled the bread before biting it 😀

The carbonara, on the other hand has chicken, mushrooms, bacon, and cheese. It is also topped with parsley.

I will try to do this creamy carbonara and I hope I will come close to the taste that they have developed. If not, we will just hie off to the nearest branch which is just a stone throw away from where we are, lol!.

I love the creamy goodness of the new Red Ribbon Creamy Carbonara! 🙂

KFC Kung Pao Chicken Pasta

I am fond of spicy food and this one tickled my fancy. It tastes good enough though the sauce should have been “thicker” instead of being a bit watery. It could be better when served paired with garlic buttered toast or a slice of pizza.
