On my eighth month with Gold’s Gym Philippines, let me just vent out some frustrations I encountered on the way.

Jack Meets Kaldi Specialty Coffee
Built under the banner of passion, promise and excellence, Jack Meets Kaldi, a quaint coffee shop in the City of Tarlac, promises to deliver quality specialty coffee to consumers, and educate locals to the idea of specialty coffee, by supporting and empowering local growers and artisans.
Island Cove Hotel and Leisure Park, Taste Cavite
Cavite is not usually part of any “gastronomic trail”. Cavite is often overlooked by people going to Batangas, which is known for its Bulalo, Lomi, Coffee, and travelers bound for Laguna, for its Puto.
However, a lunch at Island Cove Fishing Village completely changed my mind about Cavite and its cuisine. This province has more to offer to visitors than just their Annatto tinted food products.
The Shangri-La International Festival of Gastronomy 2016 @ Samba, Shangri-La Fort
It is not everyday one can say that he has been cooked food by the World’s Best Chef, more so TWO of Latin America’s Best Chefs in one night.
The Shangri-La International Festival of Gastronomy comes to Manila for the very first time at Samba in Shangri-La Fort with Chef Mitsuharu Tsumura of Maido, and for one night only cooks together with Chef Virgilio Martinez of Central.
The Power of Pen, Visayas Tour
This November 19, the Power of Pen will be touring the Visayas region with the University of San Carlos as its co-presentor and official venue for POP Visayas. The one day forum will gather distinguished personalities from the writing industry composed of editors, authors, culinary and heritage workers and news writers.
Burger King, Chicken Fries
I’m so in love with Burger King’s Limited Edition Chicken Fries that I decided to adopt a little chick, and name him Cutie Pie (not in anyway pertaining to any person alive or otherwise). ;p
Wolfgang’s Steakhouse Prime Rib Weekend
Tokyo Tokyo, Makirrito
Most often than not, I am hungry. But let’s face it… It is very difficult to find good food on-the-go. Especially when you only have few minutes to spare for lunch or snack break, it is quite hard to find the perfect food that you can bring around in the car, while walking, or even while on the desk working.
Thankfully, Tokyo Tokyo introduced a Makirrito line that features a combination of the two most popular dishes in the world—maki and burrito.
Milkier Pigs & Violet Gold
I’m not sure if this is still a “secret”, but I must confess… I am a huge lover of cookbooks!!! 🙂 Last I counted there were at least 150 to 200 titles in my collection, majority of which are from award-winning authors. One author is a Singaporean named Bryan Koh, who decided to take on the daunting task of compiling recipes from the 7,107 islands of the Philippines.
Gold’s Gym Philippines: Seventh Month
On my seventh month with Gold’s Gym Philippines, I did a lot of first… If not first, then maybe I consider them as achievements. 🙂
