Craving Restaurant and Bakeshop was owned by Annie and Badjie Guerrero. On their testimony, they said;

All my life I have been fascinated by food, its aroma and appearance, its texture
And taste.

Among my pleasant childhood memories are those spent in the warmth of the kitchen at our home in Malabon watching a pot bubbling gently on our Hotpoint stove, counting aloud our cook Tikyo’s strokes as he mixed the vanilla cake batter, punching down braided roll dough and then watching with utter amazement as it slowly grew in size.

As a child, nothing pleased me more than to be my mother’s side, watching her cook for our family of eight. (This probably why, without intending to, I have standardized all my mother all my mother has been of much influence in my life, certainly in my choice of a career in food service.

So now, here is CRAVINGS Restaurant and Bakeshop who truly serve for you.

Historical Background Cravings opened its door on October16, 1988 at Katipunan Avenue across Ateneo de Manila University. The initial concept of Cravings was takeout restaurant and bakeshop. But due to the insistent demands of customers for a dining area Cravings was led to put up bistro right beside the kitchen. Within one year of operation, the dining is had to undergo two renovations to accommodate the growing number of customers. Blessed with luck and success with the turnout of Cravings, the Guerrero family (who owns and runs the business) felt the need to expand. And so, a second cravings was established on December 18, 1990 at Wilson St.., san Juan, M.M… Since then, one branch per year was

Over the years as I indulge in the consistent, irresistible tastes of food, I am always reminded of where my love for food originated. As I scroll back in time to find where this unknown passion for food sparked, I am always taken back to my grandmother’s Thanksgiving meal.

    The practicum learning agreement created between the masters of Science in nursing (MSN) student and the instructor was approved for the goal to perform in the role of a nurse educator at the Domiciliary Rehabilitation Program at the Orlando Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC). The population of the Domiciliary Residential Rehabilitation Program is veterans with multiple and severe medical conditions, mental illness, addiction, or psychosocial deficits. Military-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can negatively affect the veteran’s well-being (Health Services Administration, 2010). The care needs of the nursing staff were assessed to identify the need for the educational program in the rehabilitation program. Further development, implementation and evaluation of a program to improve the veteran’s quality-of-life were the objectives to provide the best outcomes of a teaching/learning program. The learning agreement included the strategies to accomplish the objective with an established time-line and self-reflective journal to meet the best outcomes. Professional relationships were established with a mentor and networking with the organization improved professional advancement capabilities at the Orlando VAMC. Evaluation of the effectiveness of the project produced positive outcomes to improve the veterans’ quality of life. The role of a leader used evidence-based decision-making and applied ethical standards. The importance of nursing theory provided the principles to generate nursing knowledge and create practices to help the veterans who are affected by PTSD. The practicum experience enhanced the role as a nurse educator to improve cost-effective nursing practices for the veterans at the VA Medical Center.…

    Food provokes lively, warm, jovial feelings for me; this is especially true during the holidays. Baked goods still sparks my olfactory sense and makes me reminisce of Christmas. When I recall these memories I am at my grandmother’s house as a young child. It starts when the oven door opens, vapors of brown sugar waft through the kitchen and the caramelized, buttery aroma with lingering scents of cinnamon. For me, these memories fill me with joy and always evoke a grin. This feeling are even stronger when I recall, in particular, baguettes. My interest in bread became irrepressible at the beginning of my cooking career, and developed into a obsessive urge to create perfection the more I focused on it.…

    “There is no sincerer love than the love of food”, said George Bernard Shaw. Some people say that Nigel Slater’s emotional stories of his childhood remembered through food which is represented in his book Toast was not an autobiography and some say it was an autobiography. I say it was a Memoir in the predictable sense. It covers a period between mid-childhood and mid-adolescence, but neither dates nor autobiographical details are laid out in chronological order. Events and people emerge almost at random through the sequence of short stories. “One of my early childhood memories was my grandmother always having a bowl of Nestle chocolate bars at her house. My sister and I would argue over who could eat the chocolate bars. Looking back, I don't know why we just didn't share. We could have split them”, said Carla Hall. With the quote above it is simple to identify that children will only remember the main events that happened in life when they grow older and they won’t remember things in order, explaining Nigel Slater’s way of writing.…

    Back in my days my brother, sisters and I was always fortunate to have a two parent household. What was even better, a stay at home mom who cater to our every needs. Whether its school meetings, recitals and any of our game, she was always there. What was even better about having a stay at home mom, was something we didn’t realize, something that I could probably say that kept me growing healthy, strong and in shape and that was, she always made sure we had a good home cook meals. From breakfast, lunch, snacks and dinner, my mother made sure we were not swept away from what I call today the “fast food life.”…

    Mead & Hampson (1996) developed a study involving the divided visual field paradigm and a phonological rhyme/non-rhyme task to test the speed and accurateness of either side of the brain. This study was used to investigate functional asymmetry between the left and right hemispheres in phonological processing. The research was taken out equally on 15 male and 15 females London Metropolitan University students ranging from ages 18 – 35 years old. They were all specifically chosen to be right–handed and had English as their first language thus providing a fair experiment to see whether our left hemisphere (left side of the brain) or the right hemisphere is faster and more accurate. In conclusion using the mean and standard deviation to determine our hypothesis, it was calculated that the left hemisphere had a higher mean and standard deviation score compared to the right hemisphere.…
