If you're a student of De La Salle University and DLSU-College of St. Benilde starting in 2009, you'd probably relate to this place. Perched atop the Tapa King on Taft Avenue (Manila), Cafe Noriter is a favorite hang-out of La Sallians. And for good reason, it's simply one of the most wonderfully-designed places I've seen. Cool, laid-back and casual..it perfectly epitomizes the phrase "kick back and relax!" The regulars call Noriter their playground where they can unwind after school, pore over books or stoop doing their assignments. You can even sit on the ... Continue Reading...
Endless possibiliTEAS with Lipton
I love the idea of a tea party! I just attended one at the cozy Paul Calvin's Deli in the Fort last Saturday. Aside from the delicious munchies that was served, it was a great learning experience to discover the many ways by which one can serve one of the healthiest drinks around: tea. Take a bag of Lipton and one can have a cinnamon chai latte, or a Hong Kong-style milk tea, or a hot apple tea.Easy-to-prepare recipes were shared to us by Rosebud Benitez, the pretty chef and host of Quickfire on GMA News TV. In a table neatly laid out with ingredients, she ... Continue Reading...

Emphasis is on long marination (overnight), using less sauce and choosing a meat cut (pork tenderloin) that can be sauteed for only ... Continue Reading...

Yay! Kobe Bryant is coming to Manila in two days, 23 hours and 7 minutes as I write this. Commotion in motion, I must say.

Nike Philippines is making the Kobe Bryant tour possible. In the main event at the Araneta Coliseum on July 13,Kobe will meet players from Nike-sponsored FEU Tamaraws, DLSU Green Archers, ADMU Blue Eagles and Smart Gilas Pilipinas. ... Continue Reading...
Le Bistro d’Agathe: a French restaurant in Makati
We've been eating out a lot lately. Blame it on the fact that I have a long list of restaurants I'd like to try out before 2011 closes. I know I am already writing a lot about food as it is, but the Manila resto landscape seems to changing and ever-expanding that it's hard to keep tabs on the developments. Anyway, the past week saw me and hubby scouting for furniture and knick-knacks in Bangkal, Makati City.If you don't know Bangkal, this area is best known as a haven for second-hand car parts, thrift shops and flea market finds. We had a great time touring the ... Continue Reading...
