The Genting Star Tourism Academy is the hospitality training school of Travellers International which operates Resorts World in the Philippines. Late last year, we had the chance to visit their facilities in Newport City in Pasay. Ms. Dyan Fernandez, senior manager for business development, led our media group through a tour of the institution which is located on the second floor of the Star Cruises Center. I was thinking it's a good study option for those who are not keen on taking up traditional college or university courses. Genting Star Tourism Academy ... Continue Reading...
Blue Bay Walk restaurants: Hot Star Large Fried Chicken
Blue Bay Walk is the newest resto & shopping strip developed by Federal Land along Macapagal Avenue in Pasay City. It's across the street from Blue Wave and the best thing is there's no parking fee (yet!) when you hang around the area. Blue Bay Walk gained repute because of its two most popular restos, The Food Club buffet and Project Pie. But there are other establishments as well like BonChon, Army Navy, Papa John's Pizza, Angel N Kiss (a Korean bakery), Chef J. Tesoro's Mini Pies & Tarts, Curry Bee, Kimono Ken and others. Hot Star Large Fried Chicken, a ... Continue Reading...

Vom Fass … I heart this store!
Strolling around SM Aura last Saturday, I was happy to find that Vom Fass has opened on the second floor. It is a Germany-based specialty store selling artisanal oils as well as the finest wines, liqueurs, spirits and vinegars which they produce on their own or get from premium suppliers around the world. Knowing how difficult it is to sometimes source high-quality products in Manila, this place is a gourmet lovers' delight! (..and the prices aren't bad too) I like the whole idea of Vom Fass being a filling station. All I have to do is buy a glass bottle ... Continue Reading...
Trick art museums in the Philippines
I didn't really know there are a growing number of trick eye (or trick art) museums in the Philippines. But it's not hard to understand in a country which is the texting and selfie capital of the world! Trick art is clever, is perfect for photography and I love the imagination behind it. I certainly had fun when I tried it in Seoul (see photo, with a representation of Van Gogh's 'Starry Night') Anyway, I forgot to mention in my last post that the trick eye gallery at Banzai Japanese buffet is the latest to open in Manila. There's a section in the sprawling resto ... Continue Reading...
