I’m really happy that one of my favorite Japanese fast food chain here in Manila opens a new store at 2nd level of Glorieta 1. Whenever I’m craving for GYUDON (Beef Bowl), I always look for a Yoshinoya outlet around my area because what they have is affordable and delicious. Gyudon (Beef Bowl) is one of Yoshinoya’s best sellers, and I’m very happy that they haven’t taken them off to their menu. Gyudon is one of Japan’s most favorite fast meal since 1899 and now is the world’s best selling Japanese meal. In the mid of the 1900s, Son of the founder of Yoshinoya...

Recently, we had a Singaporean restaurant food tasting event in SM Mega Mall at Orchard Road in Mandaluyong City. SM Mega Mall is not really hard to find and it’s really accessible to all commuters. I have been to Singapore twice already, and I’ve been eating on food hawker places. I’ve tried several dishes from noodles to pan fried delicacies. And now you can enjoy the replica of Singaporean hawker dishes here in the Metro in Orchard Road Restaurant. There are lots of Singaporean restaurants here in Metro Manila but most of them are very expensive. Now you can experience Singaporean...

Then: Luneta is one of the known parks that Manila has up to now. As I can remember, the first time I went there was 1983 when my balikbayan cousins made a visit here in Manila. I really enjoyed the place, walking, playing with my cousins as if the place was so safe for us back then. But, when I went back in the early 90s, the place was so unsafe. Lots of bystanders, beggars and street children that who would always ask for alms that they look like the own the place too. Lots of litters can be seen because of un-systematized street vendors and un-disciplined people around they tend to throw their...

I know we’re already at the trend of losing weight and most of us wants to be physically lean and fit. But living a healthy lifestyle can be really hard, like finding a restaurant or cafe in Manila that serves lite, healthy or diabetic-friendly food. In the Philippines, it’s part of our culture to eat and eat. We can eat a total of 6 times a day! Three minor meals or snacks and three major meals! We are really fond of eating. And it’s “the deadlier the better” for some! But Manileños nowadays, are getting into the trend of losing weight and being physically fit! We are...

Before, whenever I’m hungry and craving for roasted chicken, Kenny Rogers Roasters always come to my mind first. I can’t help it because they’re really different. I think they’re the only fast food restaurant that serves really good roast chicken; not to mention the corn muffins that I really love. For the past few months, I’ve tried to be really cautious of what I eat and you know how hard it can be to find a fast-food restaurant that serves healthy food. If you want to eat healthy, then you have to go to those expensive specialty restaurants. Good thing that...
