Assorted Pandesal Box from La Meryenda | Magkasama Christmas Market 2021

Pandesal is the most famous bread from the Philippines. Ask any Filipino about pandesal, and they would know precisely the soft bread you're referring to.

For Magkasama Christmas Market 2021, I ordered the Assorted Box from La Meryenda. It included three Cheesy Spamdesal, Cheesy Corned Beef, Ube Cheese Pandesal, and Cheese Bread.

Row 1: Cheese Bread
Row 2: Cheesy Spamdesak
Row 3: Cheesy Corned Beef
Row 4: Ube Cheese Pandesal

We reheated the pandesal for 30-seconds in the microwave. 

I love the Cheese Bread the most. The spam was cheesier than the corned beef, and somehow the ube tasted saltier than the rest.

We'll reheat it using the air fryer tomorrow to see if it'll be a better way to reheat than a microwave.

December 6, 2021 Update
Reheating in the air fryer for 5 minutes at 350 Fahrenheit made all the pandesal oh so delicious. You can change the time depending on your oven toaster. The bonus of using this than a microwave is the house smells like baked pandesal and top is crispy while the inside is soft.

I love the corned and spam pandesal and will gladly order both again for breakfast.

Taho from Sago To Go | Magkasama Christmas Market 2021

The Christmas season is truly here! We picked up our Magkasama Christmas Market haul at Shameless Buns today. We ordered many items from many different vendors, and the first one we enjoyed was Taho from Sago Togo.

Sago Togo has been on my "radar" for a year now, but they're all the way in New Westminster, so I am incredibly pleased to have the chance to enjoy their taho.

Two 20 oz-cup of Taho

Growing up, taho is served warm, perfect for breakfast. I even remember buying taho from the manong before heading to the office in Makati when I was working at the RCBC building. Because I want my taho warm, I decided to put it in a microwaveable bowl and reheat it for one and a half minutes.

Taho from Sago Togo

It was not as sweet as the one from the Philippines, and I think that's awesome for health reasons. Hubby was looking for more arnibal (syrup). It might be fun to get each component in separate containers and have us (customers) "assemble" it, like how ramen is delivered with noodles and soup in individual packaging when delivered.
