Bizu Patisserie

My family went to cake heaven. There’s no other way to describe the experience. We love cakes and pastries and we have learned to be very discriminating.

Easy hors d’œuvre: fish, ham and cheese spring rolls

These dishes — two rather eclectic spring rolls (lumpia) and fish sticks — can be served as hors d’œuvre (appetizers) or as main entrees. It all depends on the occasion. If you’re serving them for cocktails, [...]
