How to Prepare Matcha Green Tea with Feelings

The process of making matcha tea is an art. It needs patience, focus and gives you a sense of zen..parang pag-ibig.. XD

WHAT YOU'LL NEED

1. 1/2 - 1 tsp of Matcha Powder

2. 1 cup of Warm Water

3. 1 tbsp of Honey (optional)

Step 1: Put a small amount of warm water in a cup enough to dissolve the matcha powder. Warm lang ha hindi boiling hot, kasi nakakapaso pag masyadong mainit parang pagibig..

Step 2: Sift 1/2 - 1 teaspoon of Matcha powder into the cup with warm water to avoid clumps. Depende kung gano ka kabitter. Unti unti, dahan dahan kasi pag ganyang mga bagay hindi dapat binibigla parang pag-ibig..

Step 3: Put a tablespoon of honey. Syempre hindi masarap kung puro pait lang dapat may konting tamis din parang pag-ibig..

Step 4: Use a milk frother or a whisk to mix and let it froth. Haluin mo ng haluin..paikot ikot parang ginawa sayo ng ex mo..

Step 5: Add the rest of the warm water and mix again. Enjoy you bitter sweet Matcha Tea! :)

Benefits of Matcha:
As research suggests, drinking 5 cups of green tea will help you lose weight. 1 cup of Matcha tea is equivalent to 10 cups of regular green tea.
It grows in a shade so it contains more amino acids that gives you extra alertness.
It contains a lot of antioxidants that fights free radicals that causes cancer.
It increases thermogenesis (calorie burning) without doing anything.

So yeah long story short, Matcha is good for you. You can buy it at thehealthygrocery.com for PHP795 per 1/4 lbs. I know it's expensive for such a small quantity but remember that you'll only need 1/2tsp per cup so it lasts long. Mas matagal kesa sa isang linggo mong pag-ibig. :)

Leann's Tea House

Leann's Tea House Casual Dining is located at Mother Ignacia St., Quezon City (near Big Brother's house).

The ambiance is simple and the grill is not built in the tables like the usual Korean BBQ dining places.

THE MENU

We ordered 3 sets of unlimited Samgyeopsal (Pork Belly) and Woosamgyup (Beef) for PHP449 per set.

 It comes with 4 side dishes (banchan?)

 rice

lettuce

Samgyeopsal (Pork Belly)

Woosamgyup (Beef)

Samgyeopsal and Woosamgyup (not really sure which one is which XD) but they are both good but I prefer the thinly cut one (UPDATE: it's the woosamgyup that I liked better).

 Cooking was really fun especially if you're not the one cooking XD

that oil though.. there was soo much oil that the floor even felt slippery after we finished.

 Be sure to ask for the sauce because they forgot to serve it. And it's not like there are a lot of customers.

Acapulco PHP140 and Yakult Soju PHP120

We were so full.. and the food was good.. ^_^
