We usually think that for Lent, we need to sacrifice and usually we do it on our food. For some, they do not eat as an act of sacrifice this holy season. However, for Filipinos, we usually do it by refraining from eating meat products. When I was a child, I usually think of Lent as a lonely season not only because of the sacrifice Jesus have to do but also of the food we usually eat. It's good thing though that Max's prepared 3 new amazing meals to still make this Lent happy as we reflect this Lenten season.
Here are the 3 dishes from Max's that you can enjoy:
Max’s Sizzling Seafood in Honey Bagoong Sauce is a harmony of breaded cream dory, shrimps and squid rings that are deep-fried until light, golden brown, sprinkled with julienned red bell peppers and chopped spring onions, and splashed with a special sauce that brings together sweet honey and piquant bagoong. Served in a sizzling hot plate, this sensational dish is a guaranteed must-try for seafood aficionados.
Max’s Adobong Kangkong Stuffed Tofu (Php 150) is an inventive and mouthwatering twist to the quintessential adobo. Fresh kangkong leaves, shiitake and button mushrooms drizzled in sweet adobo sauce stuffed in deep-fried tofu blocks. The harmony of greens and earthy colors lend a refreshing vibe that appeals to both vegetable and non-vegetable eaters.
Max’s Cauliflower Puffs (Php 160) is the perfect dish for very picky young diners and self-confessed meat-lovers. Crisp cauliflowers are dipped in a special batter, deep-fried and tossed in a special sauce. Fun and vibrant colors of finely sliced carrots and spring onions also brighten up the plate. Every crunchy bite of this palatable dish makes diners forget that they are actually eating cauliflowers!
Recommendation: My personal favorite among the three is the Max's Cauliflower Puffs. If you knew me, I'm not really a veggie lover and to taste the cauliflower puff is really a new way to enjoy it. I liked it because it has this sweet and spicy tasty sauce. One would not easily guess that it is made of cauliflower. When we tasted it during the event, we even dissected it just to ensure they didn't failed to serve the right food as it still tastes like meat. It is a sure hit even for kids since it is really that good plus it is budget friendly.
Max’s will be serving up its Lenten offerings in all of its branches nationwide starting March 1, 2012. Discover the most awe-inspiring dishes from Max’s. Log on to www.maxschicken.com or visit www.facebook.com/maxsrestaurant to be a Max’s Restaurant Facebook fan
