FISH SPA IN MANILA OCEAN PARK

The photo below is when my friend and I went to Manila Ocean Park last year. We attract the Fish spa which is the number one attraction of this place. We try to a unique and truly exciting spa experience; we pay Fish spa service for the cost of P120 per person, additional to manila ocean park entrance fee.

Fist step, be sure that your feet will be washed to make it sure that they are clean before you dip them into the clean water. Then after a few second, the hundreds of fish called Doctor Fish or Nibble Fish surrounded our feet and start nibbling. It’s just very tickling at first, causing we laugh and twitch (haha ang gilawgaw parang kinikiliti :-)). We really enjoy the treatment of this fish. We love to watch the fish every time we go to our feet.

After a few minutes we feel our feet was very clean, it’s because the fish gently away our dead skin on our feet and leaving the healthy skin to grow. Anyway, the experiences were very fun and relax.

Leche plan is a perfect dessert during wedding or any occasions. Yesterday has no occasions but I was surprised because my hubby makes a leche plan for me just because this is my favorite dessert. According to him he tried to make a leche plan, and this is the first time to make this. He search the online how to make a leche plan, according to my hubby making leche plan was very easy. Here are the ingredients, 10pcs of egg yolk, vanilla, 1 big can alaska condensed milk, and 1 small can alaska evaporated milk, then he started mixed. In a llanera, caramelize about 2 tbsps. of refined brown sugar over direct heat, moving the llanera around with a tong to prevent the sugar from burning. Watch this process because the sugar can burn in less than a minute if it stays in one place for too long.

When the sugar has melted and has turned brown, remove from heat. Then prepare the steaming, this is the traditional method for cooking leche flan, and is usually prepared in an oval-shaped metal pans called Llanera and steamed over moderate heat until set.

These ingredients are for three llanera only. Just very simple to prepared leche plan.

We are all heavy feelings in our heart going to every next station. Because the statue of Jesus Christ are look realistic.

Some areas here in the Philippines today are affected because of this climate. Manila is the number one affected area in the Philippines.
