Halo-halo  is a popular Philippine dessert consisting of shaved ice and a delicious combination of young shredded coconut, beans, steamed banana, macapuno, sago, kaong (sugar palm fruit), nato de coco (coconut jelly) and topped with crispy toasted rice, ice cream and leche flan (creme caramel). But why a halo-halo themed post? Halo-halo means “mix-mix”. This will be a monthly mix of my favourite sites, tools and ideas.
