The Cafe 5845 launch was hosted by local actress Dimples Romana who we found to be articulate and refreshing. Of course we see her in Agua Bendita where she plays the role of Criselda Barrameda. But believe me, she is lovelier in person. Anyway,my fellow bloggers were gushing about how Dimples lost so much weight from the last event they saw her. It's not the kind of weight loss where one looks anorexic though. So I asked her about her diet secret and she said: " I only eat one full meal a day and that happens at three o'clock in the afternoon." By that she means ... Continue Reading...
Cafe 5845: Manila’s first cheese restaurant set to open
It's time to literally "say cheese!" With the date to be announced, Manila is set to open the first cheese-themed restaurant at the SM Mall of Asia soon. It is inspired by the country's recent feat of being in the Guinness Book of World Records for coming up with 5,845 cheese-based dishes in one day last December 14, 2009 - beating India's previous record of 4,668 dishes made in 2007. The forthcoming cafe will thus be called Cafe 5845 and will be made possible by the same team who collaborated for the Guinness world record, namely Kraft Foods Philippines (in ...

Campus Belle de Jour (Campus BDJ) planner giveaway
Update: will announce the winner before the end of the week. I am just SO busy... bear with me :P The kind folks of Viviamo Inc., publisher of the Belle de Jour power planner, and now the Campus Belle de Jour graciously sent me a copy of the Campus BDJ.

Too bad none of my kids are in the planner mode yet so am giving the Campus BDJ (P350 value) to one lucky reader who'd make better use of the planner and doodle in its ... Continue Reading...
Weekend F & B: Serenitea + Sentosa food + buffalo wings
The joys of living in southern Metro Manila, and I can very well say that after two years of relocating here. I still have to make my list of best dining places in Paranaque (where we live) but in the meantime, it's good to discover little exciting places here and there. Let's start with the usual suspect: the resto row in the long stretch of Aguirre Avenue in BF Homes, Paranaque. After hearing gushing reviews from my netizen friends, trying out Serenitea with its wide variety of teas was inevitable. I certainly saw a steady stream of customers, enticed perhaps ...

Xocolat : for all things chocolatey
Sigh! Chocolate places are sprouting in Manila. This can only be bad for the diet but it's also good since who can resist a heavenly thing like chocolate? There's nothing like choco to tickle our taste buds, boost our energy and rescue us from the doldrums. Now that rainy days are here in this side of the globe, a cup of hot chocolate (or even coffee infused with cocoa) is the ultimate comfort drink. Xocolat is one of the original places in Manila where you can get your chocolate fix. It must be five years old, and I just discovered it recently! Must be because ... Continue Reading...
