Stand-Out Dishes from Junior Master Chefs Philippines Now Served at Pancake House



Time must really flies so fast. It was just a few months ago since JUNIOR MASTERCHEFS had first aired at Top t.v. Station, ABS-CBN.  Being a fan of cooking shows and a foodie newbie, I started to add Junior MasterChefs to my list of my favorite shows. It has been my favorite because it brings smile on my face whenever I see the kiddie cooks face each cooking challenge. It was amazing to see these kids (which some of them are near my son’s age, btw my eldest son is already 7 years old.) cook like a pro! It is one of those shows close to my heart because it was a family favorite. My kids watch it with me all the time. I guess the foodie in us runs in the blood.

And now with only eight of them left in the competition, kiddie cooks are showing what cuisine they excel at. But it is no doubt that all of the remaining participants have what it takes to vie for the Ultimate title of “Junior MasterChef” Philippines.

From L-R: Miko Manzano, Caitlin Taluban, Jobim Balbuena and Kyle Imao

And proof to this is some of their masterpiece dishes are now being served at the country’s most trusted restaurants, PANCAKE HOUSE.

And to have a taste of these “masterpiece” dishes, I had been invited by Junior Masterchef Philippines and Pancake House last January 11, 2012 at Pancake House Trinoma. 

 This is Chef Adrian Azurin, the Senior Product Development at Pancake House.
He was asked during the Q&A if who's the kiddie cook who resembles his cooking style. He said it  was Miko.

I was thrilled and excited to meet the kiddie cooks . And the kiddie cooks present are Caitlin Taluban, Kyle, Jobim, and Miko.  And it was a privilege to meet also the Chef for the R&D Dept. of Pancake house who was so proud to introduce to us the the dishes that these kids had made.
