I was never quite prepared for the thrill that I encountered using Samsung's flagship 60 inch LED 3D Smart TV (model UA60D8000). From its posh metallic stand to ultra-thin body and trailblazing 5mm bezel, its appearance shouts AWESOME! at first glance (and we're not even talking about its other features yet!) Samsung Philippines had asked me to test their Smart TV back to back with their latest 3-D capable, wi-fi ready blu-ray player (model BDD5500). It was only for a record 24 hours but I realized there's so much to enjoy in that short span of time when you ... Continue Reading...

These words were uttered by no less than Malaysia's Minister of Tourism, YB Dato’ Sri Dr. Ng Yen Yen, who met with the ... Continue Reading...
Kushiten: the best yakitori in BF Homes Paranaque
Last week, I was glad to find my Little Tokyo in the culinary wonderland that is the South of Manila. It was even good enough to transport me back to our time in Osaka where okonomiyaki and simple things like skewered asparagus with pesto sauce all tasted divine. Kushiten Yakitori and Kushiage is a cozy nook (almost like a hole in the wall) along President's Avenue, just a few steps away from my other favorite Japanese place, Kenji Tei.

Christmas gift idea: personalized wine labels
Pardon these successive posts about Christmas gift ideas. The truth is, Christmas is coming sooner than we think.I do know that some of us, even the big companies, are already doing their Christmas shopping this early. My rule on gift-giving is that it has to be something that impresses, and if you can add your personal touch, the better. How many times have we been put off by a person who gave tacky gifts? Christmas only comes once a year and we should take the extra effort to make it special ...not necessarily costly, but "tasteful." I highly recommend these ... Continue Reading...
