Mirsbin’s Kitchen

And I’m super late with this Lasang Pinoy on Breakfast. I’m so late it’s almost “brunch” (past breakfast but not yet lunch) just like what I’ve been having these past few days. I was waiting for my sister who promised to bring home breakfast from a restaurant in Tomas Morato named Heaven and Eggs she was super late I ended up eating my order during lunch. While waiting, our dear cook served me champorado and two pieces of tuyo.

Days before I was trying to write this article I was thinking of a good breakfast to write about. Then I remembered how I loved champorado with milk and sugar. My original article was supposed to be entitled “Ado at Away”. “Ado” in our house means champorado and “away” is sugar. I grew up hearing this story again and again. My eldest sister could not pronounce champorado when she was just 3 years old thus the reason for “Ado” then “Away” well they just couldn’t understand why hehe. The story is now being retold again and again for the amusement of my niece and nephews who have started to like champorado.

As a child I loved champorado but I usually pair it with salami. My sisters found me weird since they ate it with tuyo. I like pairing food especially if it’s sweet, I then pair it with something salty. One thing I also love when I eat champorado is when I still feel the grains of the sugar. I don’t mix it too well so that the sugar won’t be dissolved. Sometimes I eat the champorado with milk sometimes I like it without. I also sometimes like it cold compared to the steaming hot. And it’s definitely a must during rainy days when you wished you can just stay at home.
