Gng. Bukid’s Best Maja Blanca. This is indeed one of the best maja blancas around. Not too sweet and not too soft.

BELGIAN lace cookies, chocolate chips, Ginang Bukid cookies (the Mrs. Fields brand name translated into Tagalog) – these are what can be found in bakeshops, groceries and weekend markets.

Of course the Salcedo Village market wouldn’t be complete if it didn’t have a stall or two that sold desserts. This is Ginang Bukid stall that claims to sell the best maja blanca in town.

Went to Salcedo Market with C. Got organic veggies and homemade bread from Gng. Bukid. Discovered their coffee blend and it was sooo smooth I had a second cup. Black. That's how I try coffee... black first so I'll know if it's good. If I can enjoy it black, it's definitely something I'll have again.

Ice Cream Saturdays

...but for now, here I am, all snug and cozy in bed, almost ready to call it a night, except that I can’t just yet because I am dreaming of freshly-baked Challah bread from a lady I know only as Gng. Bukid.
I want to dunk toasted strips of that in my imaginary Horlicks drink. Oh my, oh my, please allow me to tell you how good her bread is. Too good, my hips may start protesting soon. I have been gorging on it for over a week now. It tastes like brioche, delicious and soft but deceptively light — that is, until you catch yourself eating too much of it. My aunt lives so near this home baker (she was in fact the one who turned me on to it) and she has just told me that about two hours, 11 p.m. to be exact, Gng. Bukid will be done with a fresh batch of assorted breads because she has a weekend market to bring it to tomorrow.
I think it is a little drop of blessing in this big busy city, catching bread while it’s hot, something that is quite normal in small provinces like the one I am from. So yes, God bless bread, and ladies like Gng. Bukid who bake them with hand and heart late into the night. Especially on a rainy Saturday like this. She also makes an earthy Honey Whole Wheat that I love eating as a sandwich for breakfast (when I am up early enough for that) or just about any other time of the day actually — two slabs of it toasted and with a messy plop of egg salad in between. I can seriously taste it already and at the rate I am going I think I will most likely wait for 11 p.m. to come.

P.S. If I have, in any way, sent you off craving Gng. Bukid’s Challah bread or her Honey Whole Wheat, I am sharing with you her contact numbers. I have never met her yet, but I do love her bread. If only for that I know I like her already. Call 815-4552 or 474-2600.

A tiny retail outpost of the popular San Lo-based bakery, Panaderya ni Gng. Bukid was created with non-Makati residents in mind, says owner Mike Policarpio. Get their famous “Best Maja Blanca”, whole wheat pandesitos, challah, bagels, organic sugar, and other home-baked goodies without having to drive through the Makati CBD traffic.
