You read it on the net and all beauty-conscious ladies are talking about it: the latest make-up bag must-have called BB cream (BB is short for blemish base/blemish balm). It's the latest phenomenon from the country which brought us chap chae, Kim Bum, and Boys Over Flowers. Really now, there's no stopping the Korean invasion - from the shows we watch, the food we eat, the clothes we dress up in and how to look good.

The resto is a sentimental favorite for my friends from Bacolod, and having been to Cafe Bob's in the City of Smiles, I don't have to wonder why. Bob's serves down-home comfort food, mostly American favorites like barbecue, baby back ribs and burgers. The only thing about Bob's lone branch (so far) in Manila is the location.
