Carbonara is the new comfort food! Just like the sweet-style Pinoy spaghetti, we have our own way of appreciating carbonara in these islands: saucy, milky, and flavorful. No egg yolk required! :) Yesterday was a special day. I told the nanny not to cook for lunch because something special would be arriving in our doorstep. And out came the friendly delivery guy bringing a whole pan of Creamy Carbonara from Greenwich Pizza! The kids were thrilled because they love this pasta. Greenwich makes an excellent version that is generously mixed with ham, bacon, cheese ... Continue Reading...
Shizen charcoal soap & new products to try
I know of some people who have used the same skin care products for decades, but not me. Considering the slew of new inventions and technologies in beauty,it would be a disservice to yourself not to try the array of offerings now flooding the market. It is always worthwhile to discover something new each time (and thankfully, my face hasn't experienced breakouts from being too adventurous). For the past few months, I've been using this manuka honey soap I bought at a stall in the mall.Love the fact that it smells great and is made from all-natural ingredients. ... Continue Reading...
The ALL-NEW Duty Free Philippines!
Only me and my gay friends will know what duty-free means. Because when a guy is duty-free, avoid at all cost, hahaha. Kidding aside, Philippine duty free shops used to be this depressing place with bad lighting and sad-looking merchandise. That is why it was nice to receive the piece of good news that they are levelling up in terms of design and product offerings. Duty Free Philippines COO Lorenzo Formoso announced that they will be opening a huge 11,000 square meter space in Terminal 3 by the end of 2015. This will be a 'mini mall' near the airport carpark that ... Continue Reading...

Union Jack Tavern & a Full English Pizza recipe
Our recent staycation in Alabang was very productive. I was able to discover new places and food haunts. One of these is the Union Jack Tavern on the second level of Festival Mall. It's a spacious and homey British pub that one doesn't expect to find in a mall. The ambiance is nice, service is friendly and they serve great Indian & British food... definitely a must-visit if you are like me who gets sentimental about Europe! ;) The place appears to be popular with the foreign community in this part of Manila. That Sunday, it was full of diners who were there for ... Continue Reading...
