As she charms us with her unmistakable beauty and impressive on-screen performances in the 2018 horror flick “Eerie” as Erika and in the on-going digital BL (boy love) series “Hello Stranger” as Krystal, fast-rising actress Gillian Vicencio recently amazed us with her kitchen skills as she presented her Barkada Street Food Platter in the latest episode of “Caldero Files”!
The Rise Artist Studio talent didn’t only show us one or two recipes, but three snacks that we can prepare and enjoy with our family and friends now that we’re stuck in our homes due to the community quarantine. However, these aren’t the simple street food we used to munch on in the pre-COVID days as she made sure to put fantastic twists on our favorite kwek-kwek, “dynamite”, and breaded hotdog!
Below are the ingredients and processes of cooking rainbow kwek-kwek, tuna dynamite, and hotdog in a blanket. You may also click on the video to see how each step was done and Gillian’s admirable enthusiasm and genuineness as well.
