Bacon, glorious bacon!

Homemade bacon is really good and there aren’t that many places where you can buy it. Usually when everyone gets wind of it, the products begin to lose quality and the prices begin to go sky high. I hope Memi’s doesn’t go this way when it becomes big. Here’s my take on some homemade bacon.



This is Memi’s bacon before the frying. A friend of mine said it reminded her of prosciutto ham. According to Memi’s, you need to cook it without oil on a non-stick frying pan, as you would do with supermarket bacon. How wonderful was the aroma that filled the room! I noticed while I was frying it, the oil was really flowing out of the bacon but the meat didn’t shrink as most bacon slices would.


Behold, Memi’s Delight Homemade Bacon when cooked! The smell just enveloped the entire floor, to a point that my next-door neighbor came up to me in the parking lot and asked me what I had for dinner. Compared to commercial bacon, the slices of Memi’s are rather thick and are mostly lean meat. This is why I am not left with a pan of shriveled bacon bits after 5 minutes on the frying pan. There is very minimal fat, just enough to grease the plate a little. One pack is enough for three people with normal appetites. Give Memi’s a call and bring home the bacon. Call 0918-571-5747 for your orders. It’s only P75.00 per pack of 1/4 kilo, as seen here.

I seems Reposo Street is getting busier now. I havent visited the place after I left Philippines few years ago. I remember there is a Quezon (Lucban) based restaurant fronting the Makati Cemetery which offers authentic food.
