"Promoting Steem Engagement: Food Photography Contest [ROUND 3] + (ANNOUNCEMENT OF ROUND 2 WINNERS)"


Hello everyone! Thank you for all your efforts in sharing with me your food photography! There are 22 entries for this round and I do really hope that the number of participants will increase as we continue our food photography contest 2 to 3 times a week.

Congratulations to all of us as nobody loses here, we all win in this contest! While most of you might not have won SBDs, the time you invested in engaging with other people, successfully making friends is much bigger reward especially in the long run.

My purpose in hosting this contest is to encourage you to socialize with other people. The most important thing in becoming successful in this platform starts with engaging with other people! I think I don't need to explain that to you.

Round 3

So for Round 3, I want you TO NOT just share us your food but also, TO COMMENT on other's food. Well, you don't necessarily need to comment on all the entries, just comment on the photos that you find very delightful or the foods that you really like!

Again 5 people will be declared winners at the end of the contest. Winners will receive 1 SBD each. It isn't too much so take this as an opportunity to really make friends. Think of your long term investment in the platform!

The Rules of the Contest

First, you must upvote this post to increase the prizepool. I will not require you to resteem this but I would really encourage you to do so. This is to gather more people to interact with! Again all you have to do is to upvote, you don’t need to resteem!

Next, comment your photo below with a short description of your entry food and explain why you liked it. Just make it short, at least 2 to 3 sentences. This will act as your conversation starter.

You are only allowed to submit one entry. Again, I will pick 5 winners for 1 SBD each, this time after 3 days. AGAIN, prizes will increase depending on the success of the event. The prizes are really cheap but if you actively participate and engage with other people, you will build a strong network of followers.

The event will end on January 31, Wednesday at 1PM (Philippine Time). Winners will be announced 2 to 3 hours after.


Winners of Round 2

I really had a hard time picking just 5 winners. So in no particular order, here are the 5 winners of Round 2. Each of them will receive 1 SBD. Congratulations everyone!

This picture made me smile. I thought I was the only one eating "bahaw". Apir!

APIR!!! heheheh

Same here! My breakfast was last nights left over dinner XD All i ate was "bahaw."

The secret to a tasty and successful paella negra dish is the squid ink. It creates the distinct and eponymous coloration. This is the main source of flavor.
C252369B-E620-497A-9229-FEB20D65F88B.jpeg

This one looks interesting.. If im not mistaken, is this a sort of a pizza?

No man. That’s Paella Negra. It is made with squid ink, which is added to the rice in the cooking broth and gives the dish the color and it’s name. That’s close enough to pizza thou :)

Thanks for the info man! Haven’t tried one. Maybe soon! Im craving now hahah

Try now! 😄

Love the spirals!

You should try it thou! :)

Now, this one is interesting. I really, really want to taste this, much more learn how to cook it.

It is basically composed of rice, squid and lots of squid or cuttlefish ink. It’s really a delicious meal my friend. :)

I thought it was a Roti first or a chamorado here in the Philippines but upon reading it not. I guessed it wrong. I am looking forward to taste some food like this, I can smell some weirdness due to the squid ink but i think this taste like heaven!

Yes bro, it may looks like dirty, unpleasant because of it’s color, but I’m telling you, this is superb! 👍

Wooohh this is the first time that I see this food. Lemme search this in google or youtube.

Yes bro. The color of it will give you it’s own mystery! Try it bro.😊

Ginisang Gulay with Pork

This by far one of my favourite food. Aside from being a healthy food, it will not fail you with its mouth watering taste. I cooked this one for my family for dinner. Home cooked food are the best!

Healthy one. I like the idea of local veggies... and I agree, home-cooked foods are still the best.

Agreed, home-coked foods are the best!

Budget friendly and really tasty. Uhm, well, if you are a good cook. Lol.

Yeah, it's really budget friendly food. I bet you will be amaze if you try to cook it yourself even if its your first time, it will still taste good.

Hahahaha I always cook when im at home

Because I am a pork lover this my entry too! Crispy pork sided with acharang papaya. food.png

Grilled pork and achara is a perf combination :)

yes! add some soy sauce, vinegar, and lot of chili with lemon. perf! try that at home it can boosts your appetite. :) @alyciakiss

Crispy pork! My favorite!

Magluto gd ni siya unya ba. Ang pangutan na ba kahay papaya pickles dra? @ruel.cedeno

The pork really looks crispy.

absolutely right! you can cook it at home and dip in a gravy! @yadah04

But it is a challenge to make it crispy. So i am just feasting my eyes on your picture, allowing myself to salivate some more. Lol.

Where can I try this one?

Cagayan de Oro City, the famous High Ridge with an overlooking view to the city of friendship.

thanks for @asbonclz I did not expect me to be a champion, this time I want to show other Indonesian typical food, can say this food comes from my place of Aceh, all people of Aceh familiar with this food and I happen to cook myself because a little hard to find the material here, good fortune there though simple , but it tastes delicious, the name of the food "sayur pliek" is full of vegetables such as young corn, melinjo,eggplant, sweet potatoes, peanuts, pliek, and others, a special of this food is pliek (patarana) that only exist in Aceh.

Looks delicious. I'm planning to visit Indonesia soon. What food do you recommend?

Hehe..there are many regional foods in Indonesia, because in Indonesia there are many ethnic and diverse cultures as well as the cuisine, so it depends on which region of Indonesia you will visit, if in Aceh "sayur pliek" most famous, different regions are also typical food a little hard for me to recommend which meal the most delicious?so if you go to Indonesia later, you tell me which part, let me tell you what special food? 😅

This is something to note. "Sayur Pliek" I need to try this when we visit Indonesia sometime this year. Is this spicy though?

Not spicy, this is good for people who like vegetables and coincidentally I also like vegetables☺️

I liked that you "coincidentally" like vegetables, and so am I. Sayuk pliek it is, noted and must try it.

Great coz I love veggies.

In my city Sfax ( tunisia) we call it "Jwejem" Very tasteful

We take transparent crystal cups with a beautiful shape for presentation. Garnish in each cup with caramel sauce, then sprinkle a few crispy chips and broken fruits, then set a little yogurt and sprinkle with nuts and crispy chips. Then add another layer of yoghurt and put a little honey and fruits on top. Then sprinkle with cherries, bananas and strawberries and cover with dry fruits, then sprinkle with a teaspoon of concentrated pomegranate juice.

Wow! This is heaven! Makes me wanna visit Tunisia asap.

Eggs Benedict

A traditional American breakfast or brunch dish that consists of two halves of an English muffin each of which is topped with ham or sometimes bacon, a poached egg, and hollandaise sauce.

669C48A3-3C46-4BB0-8E2E-6C1A7A403FD0.jpeg

The hollandaise sauce is mouthwatering, 😋😋
Maybe I should try that one for my breakfast. 😊😊

Yes! I highly suggest that you try it! But I’m not sure if its available in some resto’s here in iligan. Maybe in Cdo though

May I know what particular resto is that? Perhaps I could try that in Manila.
Thank you. 😊😊

This was in Cambodia at Khéma. It’s a resto that offers only breakfast and brunch. But i think if you’re in Manila you could try at Resorts World Manila coz they have a perfect breakfast also for the record haha

Oh thank you for the info. You're rigth they have great foods, but maybe i should plan my budget again for that. Hahaha!

Wow. I'm salivating over this! Awesome shot!

Thanks ruel! This one is my favorite breakfast but I couldn’t afford this everyday hahha

Looks heavenly. I always wanted to make eggs benedict at home but always failed. So, I only get to have a taste of this whenever we go on a holiday at the hotels.

Same with me too. I cant eat this everyday nor try to make it myself. hahaha Its way too expensive for daily breakfast haha. Maybe i’ll just try to cook some scrambled egg?

Scrambled egg could be a good substitute for eggs benedict. we just have to close our eyes and imagine we are eating one. lol.

Ohhw I would love to try this one! Perfect! Both you and @bluesapphire06 share the best foods! Maybe we should give chance to others :D hehe

What i love in this competition you’ve made is that I get to have small yet cool conversations with everyone. yay!

Hello fellow Steemians,

Anyways, here is my entry for the 3rd round.

"Chowking King's Special", composed of fried rice, beef tapa, chinese longganisa and sunny side up.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so I always eat heavy. Haha!
It is my favorite breakfast meal in that fastfood coz' I do love how they cook the egg and thier vinegar dipping for the beef tapa. The longganisa and fried is also delicious! 😋😋

Photo captured by my Samsung S7edge.

I miss chowking.. no chowking in Thailand :(

Aw how sad, but they have great food on the contrary,rigth?
And your entry is awesome by the way. 😊😊

Also love this :) their vinegar is one of the best!

Yes you're rigth and I always ask an extra vinegar for my meal even its not included. 😂😂

Thank you.
Yes youre right, but they dont have bread in that fastfood. Siopao is the only one they got.

Never knew there was something like this in chowking! It makes me wanna grab one hahah. Thanks!

Vietnamese Cuisine

20170805_134026~2.jpg

Visiting Vietnam wouldn't be complete without enjoying their delectable cuisine which usually includes vegetables with grinded meat wrapped in thin film of starch, sweet and sour sausages, spicy papaya shrimp salad, crispy pork, and all sorts of spices. These unique combination of mouth-watering flavors and aroma will definitely make you want for more. Photo taken by Samsung J7+.

Damn perfect! Love this Don @ruel.cedeno! Thanks for sharing.

Chirashizushi =ちらし寿司
DSC_0973.JPG

This is Chirashizushi, a type of sushi in Japan where the sushi is scattered rather than rolled, the word “Chirashi” itself means “scatter”. I ate this for the first time in Japan 3 weeks ago. It's a must try Japanese food similar to sushi! :)

Love it! Especially the shrimp!

Yes! you should try this in any Japanese restaurants here in the Philippines ^_^ I haven't seen this in the japanese restaurants here in cebu though, maybe it's not that common :D

Wow! Looks really delightful, want to try this!

This is new, chirashi. Must put that on my must eat list. I love sushi, every bite of it. Do you pair this with wasabi too?

I love Japanese food, this is the first time I heard of "Chirashi" - I have to try this. Hahaha

Checking on a new nearby cafe in our place ^_^

Wow! Is that sardines on top?

Interesting "sauce" for a pasta. what is it though?

Hmmm looks yummy. I love this one!

a plate of Russian pies with cabbage and eggs (мамины пирожки с капустой и яйцами)

It is a typical Russian pirogok (pie). Pirogok is a dish of Russian and European cuisine from dough with filling, which are baked or fried. It can has any filling (meat. eggs, vegetables, jam).

You love pie? Thanks for sharing this brother :)

I love not all kinds of pies

Sounds like there is a local counterpart for this russian dish. We call it the empanada.

Pirogki (Russian pies ) have the symmetrical form
empanada is similar in shape to chebureki (https://steemit.com/dailyfoodphotography/@yura81/20180120t080011066z-post) or fried dumplings

oh I see. right, chebureki's shape is like an empanada. nice food photography you have there too.

I am pleased that you like it. I'm going to start photographing my food)

You really know me as a Korean enthusiast, so here is one of my favorite Korean Cuisine. Samgyeopsal, Chili Pickled Cabbage, and Naengmyeon.
Samgyeopsal is a grilled pork belly in Korean cuisine. It is commonly served as an evening meal. It consists of thick, fatty slices of pork belly meat and is usually cooked on a grill at the diners' table.
Chili Pickled Cabbage is just a cabbage with chili pickled. Haha
And lastly, Naenghmyeon is a Korean noodle dish of long and thin handmade noodles made from the flour and starch of various ingredients, including buckwheat, potatoes, sweet potatoes, arrowroot starch, and kudzu.

korean.jpg

I love Korean foods too. Not just because of the taste, but I thought Samgyeopsal is not "boring" as you get to bond and chat with whoever you are dining with.

i agree with you @yadah04 ")
it's the people whom you eat together makes it special every time.

couldn't say more. No rush in eating. just having fun doing grilling and all while chatting and chilling.

Naenghmyeon is made from the flour and starch of various ingredients, including buckwheat, potatoes, sweet potatoes, arrowroot starch, and kudzu.

I want to share the delicacy of Calasiao, Pangasinan. This rice cake is known as "Puto Calasiao" and popular because of its taste - sweet, moist and chewy puto. There was one guy who always gave me this rice cake whenever he went in our house (courting stage) and he is now my husband :) If you plan to visit Pangasinan, you can drop by in Calasiao and buy this tasty rice cake. You wont regret it!

do they have the same flavor? ")

They have different flavors. The yellow one is mango flavor, the green is pandan flavor, violet is ube flavor and the white one is just plain rice cake :)

wow. never tried eating puto with different flavors. hehe
anyways, where are you base from?

From Calasiao :) if you happen to visit pangasinan, don't forget to buy this. Truly the best puto.
