Getting older and being a mother again has made me very conscious about my health. I am still coping with post-partum weight gain (20 more punds to go, LOL) but am glad I am not experiencing post-pregnancy after effects like hair loss and loosened teeth (ouch!) Most of these I attribute to a well-balanced diet and iron supplementation during and after pregnancy. I thought I was already eating enough, but attending a talk sponsored by Amway-Nutrilite recently on how to "color your diet" made me realize how much still needs to be done. For starters, think about the ... Continue Reading...
Dayrit’s : revisiting an old favorite
Our baby is now two months old! We regularly visit her pedia and it's good that the clinic is located in a little-known foodie destination called Paseo de Magallanes. We tried Bob's in Paseo before and this time around, it was my turn to revisit the familiar old tastes of Dayrit's - one of Manila's original burger joints. Dayrit's only now has two remaining branches - Magallanes and The Fort (see end of this post for the complete address). Their main branch in Magallanes is supremely no-frills. However, it easily gets filled during peak hours with people craving ... Continue Reading...
Chris Tiu joins public health advocacy against HPV
We admire basketball star and barangay kagawad (of Urdaneta Village, Makati) Chris Tiu for being the face of a new campaign to raise public awareness against sexually-transmitted infection dubbed " Help Fight HPV." For him, it's not a multi-million peso endorsement for a mobile phone or power drink. Still, the benefits are priceless since it will warn the public, especially the young and carefree, about the health risks of contracting the human papilloma virus or HPV. Sure, HPV is not the same as HIV or AIDS, but the effects are equally menacing. Most people with ... Continue Reading...
Amoroma : best Italian resto in Tagaytay
I was never able to visit the much-acclaimed Italian resto Amoroma all the time it was in Alabang. That old place is closed, and now am glad this "best-kept secret resto" has permanently settled in Tagaytay. You'll see it if you use the Sta. Rosa Road. It now even boasts of a bed and breakfast! ... Continue Reading...
Summit Ridge Hotel & Promenade, Tagaytay City
I sorely missed travelling the whole time I was pregnant. That is why our short trip to Tagaytay City last weekend was memorable. It was also our first time to tag along our barely two month-old baby Lucia. We stayed at the Summit Ridge Hotel which was kind enough to invite us for an overnight stay to try their facilities and amenities. Summit Ridge, owned by the Robinsons Group, is the newest luxury hotel to rise in the city. I must say its direct competition is the Taal Vista Hotel controlled by taipan Henry Sy of SM. In fact, the SM and Robinsons malls will ... Continue Reading...
