Everything at Steak! Everything Cheap! Everything Yummy!

Posted: February 17th, 2010 | No Comments »

Wilson street in Greenhills area has been one of my favorite stop-over for delicious food.  Once we went to Luna and enjoyed the Filipino-Spanish fusion cuisine there.  Fran, a foodie, recommended us to visit “Everything at Steak” for a very delicious experience at a very affordable price, without the quality of taste being compromised. (Now that is unique!)
One day, we searched for this place along P. Guevarra street in San Juan.  It was traffic.  Good thing it was, for if not, we would have missed this restaurant, situated at a gas station!
Directions
Coming from Greenhills shopping mall, make your way to Wilson street.  Turn right at P. Guevarra and look for Petron station at the left side.  There you’ll see Everything at Steak situated.  In front of the restaurant is North Park.

The Place and the Ambiance
The restaurant is pretty small and chic.  The theme of the place is Pastel colors of […]

The First International Pyromusical Competition in SM MAll of Asia 2010

Posted: February 17th, 2010 | No Comments »

Thanks to Winston of batangyagit.com for honoring me VIP tickets to the first ever International Pyromusical Competition held at SM Mall of Asia.  I swear!  The traffic was really bad!  Not only cars, but people!  It’s traffic everywhere… It was Valentine’s Day and Chinese New Year at the same time and people were off to the mall to celebrate.
I just parked at the middle of the street where other cars were parked as well.  I asked the police politely if it is okay to park it there since everyone is parked anywhere! He was like… “andjan na yan eh, sige maam, lock nyo nalang po ng maayos ang kotse” (make sure to lock the doors properly).
Anyway, I rushed to Giligans to meet Winston and Mica.  I missed the Philippine’s exhibition.  I was there to capture US’ show though.  Here are the pictures taken from my Nikon D40.  Click on […]

NesVita Cereal Milk Drink: Choco Malt Flavor

Posted: February 16th, 2010 | No Comments »

I passed on drinking coffee for breakfast the other morning to try the NesVita Cereal Milk drink which my mother bought from the grocery the other day.
I’m a chocolate lover and seeing the Choco Malt flavor was enough to convince me to give NesVita a chance.
NesVita Cereal Milk drink boasts of having both calcium and […]

SAWI: Single Awareness Weekend Internalization

Posted: February 16th, 2010 | No Comments »

While most of the single ladies ended up weeping in their homes while watching romantic movies or reading romance novels, I ended up being busy on the so-called ‘Valentine Weekend’.

Laging Bigo, Laging SAWI sa Pag-Ibig… Charot!

Let’s start with Friday. Unlike most people of the corporate work force, I consider Friday as my rest day. I ended up waking up at 3pm and I eventually went to Makati to claim the Ayala GC I won from a contest late last year. I took advantage of the fact that I am already in Glorietta. I ended up spending the credits of the GC. I bought items from Bench and… yeah, i spent it all at Bench LOL.

I went home right away to work on the pre-cut of my project. From Makati, I went back home to San Juan then off to Cubao and back home again. I wasn’t able to take a […]

It was worth missing my 16-hour weekend sleep. Last weekend’s Hot Air Balloon Fiesta in Clark, Pampanga is one of the most exhausting, yet one of the most enjoyable weekend trips I had.  We (Mica, Allan, Kuya Erik and Fritz) left Cubao at around 3 a.m. […]

The Singapore Chicken Rice in the Philippines

Posted: February 16th, 2010 | No Comments »

You know why I’m travelling around asia… It’s because it’s fun, it’s awesome and best of all I love the food!  I have been and out of Singapore and I keep coming back because I miss the street food and hawker centers!  Of course, how can I forget the milk tea?
Sometimes, I am just craving for authentic Singaporean street food but I could just not find my satisfaction here in the Philippines.
When I heard that there’s a Singapore Chicken Rice blogger event, I begged him to drag me there with him!

As we arrived, I almost ignored the other bloggers I was so excited that when I entered I immediately looked at the menu! Nasi Lemak, White Chicken Rice, Laksa and that Dinosaur drink looked very very luring!  When I realized that I was not the only person there in the restaurant, I said “hi” and mingled with the […]

Microsoft Bloggers Event – Manila

Posted: February 16th, 2010 | No Comments »

A lot of bloggers attended this event and it’s Tech Time for Gadget Candy!  It’s the first time that Kristel and I are together on a blog event.  I introduced her to all of the bloggers and the other bloggers thought we were sisters.  I told her before that she has some bit of similarity with my sister Snow.
Anyway, the event was one of the most organized events I ever attended.  They introduced Microsoft Office 2010 (beta) and distributed CDs for us to test the new and latest spankin’ Office!
I am a heavy user of PowerPoint, Excel and Word.  Those tools I used everyday for my previous job at the bank.  I knew every single detail about them and I consider myself as an expert   I really appreciated the upgrades of the 2010 and will blog about it soon.  For now, satisfy yourselves with a sneak peek of […]

Caramello Latte by Bo’s Coffee

Posted: February 15th, 2010 | No Comments »

Bo’s Coffee is a Filipino owned coffee shop which originates from Cebu. Their very first branch was in Ayala Center Cebu back in 1996.
Interestingly, I remember drinking there back in 1998 when I had the opportunity to visit the region. And more than a decade after, you can see that they’ve really grown – with […]
