Samsung Philippines launched last night its super smartphone Galaxy S3 at the NBC Tent in Bonifacio Global City . I've already discussed before some of its features but just to give you an idea of its pricing, unlocked units will be sold at P32, 990 ( cheaper if bought in the gray market). Smart telecoms will offer the unit for free with Smart Unli Data Plan 2000 while for Globe, the Galaxy S3 is free with UnliSurf Plan 2499. Photo shows my old Galaxy S2 (left) with the new Galaxy S3 (in white). There's not much difference in size but the functions and ... Continue Reading...
Crumpler Dry Red No. 7 review
Am no stranger to Crumpler laptop bags. It's really worth it to shell out a little more than $100 for these bags because they're well made and can stand being so ruggedly used (like being placed in the luggage compartment of a bus or thrown around the airport scanner, for example). This Crumpler briefcase from the Dry Red series was my companion for weeks (too bad it's a review unit only). I often wear a black suit to the office but I felt confident enough to lug it around. Maybe because it was a beautiful red color. I used it mostly as a handbag, but there was ... Continue Reading...
‘Cue Modern Barbecue in Bonifacio High Street Central
'Cue is one of the successful restaurants in BHS Central at the moment. It gets packed, even on weekdays. We hear it from sources that 'Cue is owned by first-time restaurateurs. This convinces me of the fact that great-tasting food & good menu selection is the key! Warning! Don't go to 'Cue if you're a vegetarian or just starting your Cohen diet. You'll definitely suffer :) 'Cue is for die-hard carnivores (read: can't live without meat) and families or big groups who want to relish their comfort food like finger-lickin' ribs and more! Proof of the fact that ... Continue Reading...
SLICE in Bonifacio High Street Central
My week has been busy with lunches and dinners. And it seems most of them are centered on the newest place in town to explore your culinary palate further ... Bonifacio High Street Central in Bonifacio Global City (just across the huge store of R.O.X.) For a product launch, I was glad to dine at SLICE - the resto of Sen. Pia Cayetano. Ambiance was, overall, bright and cheery. The prices aren't bad either - you can enjoy coffee and cake for a little less than P200. Our friend Franco told me not to miss the yema chocolate cupcake (P70 each). The condensada/dulce de ... Continue Reading...
The Cake Club: not just about cakes
I had my trepidation the first time I heard about The Cake Club. First, I thought it was so generic-sounding for a dessert place and held no appeal for someone like me who's trying to a) lose weight and b) avoid diabetes. I was certainly glad to find that the place offered more than desserts. Although you're highly encouraged to clinch your meal with a sweet, happy ending...more on that later. We started our meal with a highly-indulgent appetizer called the foie gras macaron (P150 each), fashioned by the Diamond Hotel's executive chef Nick Stoyanov from a French ... Continue Reading...
