Refillable Drinks and More at Ristorante Bigoli

Posted: March 15th, 2010 | No Comments »

At SM North Annex in Quezon City, another branch of Ristorante Bigoli just opened and I was finally able to try their food and of course, their refillable drinks!
I first thought of getting soda that day but I was thirsty from the travel (I came from Paranaque) – and when you’re thirsty I believe it’s […]

Pacquiao Fight at Greenhills Promenade Theater

Posted: March 15th, 2010 | No Comments »

Yesterday, it was my first time watching a Pacquiao fight – EVER!  I don’t watch it even on TV at home nor the replays or whatever.  It’s not that I don’t care, of course I do!  It’s just that I only want to know if Pacquiao won the fight and how it went.  I don’t like to see people fighting and even if this is a sport, I still am hesitant to watch.
But, since I’ve matured over years, I decided to watch the game and be one with the hype.  I watched it with friends at the Greenhills Promenade theater.  I didn’t like the fact that I can’t blog *snif* *snif* but at least it’s good to have the company of friends.  The whole experience makes it much more fun!
Anyway, for the next Pacquiao fights, take note of this before booking any reservations.

Quick Update on Maribago Beach Resort and Sumilon Island Trip

Posted: March 14th, 2010 | No Comments »

I am writing this quick post while I am stuck with three bloggers at the lobby of a hotel somewhere in Dumaguete City. Why? The plane bound for Manila left us, but there are no regrets. Of course, I was worried awhile ago, but there are some things that we can’t really control. I guess this is one of them.

Instead of feeling bad for not catching that flight, I am taking this chance to make a simple “Thank You” post to the staff and crew of Maribago Beach Resort and Sumilon Island for the very grand vacation treat and of course, Geiser-Maclang team especially to Anika and Charl for making everything possible.

Dinner at The Cove, Maribago Beach Resort

Last year, my Cebu-based blogger friends blogged about their stay at Maribago Beach Resort and how they were pampered as guests. At the back of my mind, I have this wish that I’d […]

Results of the F1 Bahrain 2010 Grand Prix

Posted: March 14th, 2010 | No Comments »

I’m sorry guys, I’m am a very vary hardcore F1 fan and I have been updating LIVE everything that’s happening on Bahrain… Expect my blog to be F1 heavy every weekends where there is an F1 event!
Here are the preliminary results of the F1 Bahrain 2010 Grand Prix as I watched it live (See previous post)
#1 Fernando Alonso – Ferrari #2 Felipe Massa – Ferrari #3 Lewis Hamilton – McLaren Mercedes

Will update with the official results of the rankings but let me just give you a piece of my mind regarding the race
The Ferraris are back! Did they make a right decision of replacing Kimi Raikkonen with Fernando Alonso? It looks like it… But really, I think the Ferraris improved their cars better this season. Massa was struggling with the car as well last year. They should have given Kimi a chance […]

Iced Moroccan Mint Tea by Cafe Mediterannean

Posted: March 13th, 2010 | No Comments »

A few weeks ago, I found myself hanging out at The Cafe Mediterannean in SM Mall of Asia. I was not really hungry but I did order some bread and tzatziki.
And with it, I ordered an Iced Moroccan Mint Tea – which is actually not on their menu.
What do they have in their menu is […]

Sarimanok Wine Bottle Stopper From Portugal

Posted: March 13th, 2010 | No Comments »

Just wanted to share today this interesting wine bottle stopper from Portugal that looks like a Sarimanok for me.
When I saw it, I thought it was a souvenir from a local tourist destination in the country, but my friend said it was a pasalubong from his aunt who went to Portugal.
If Filipinos were wine drinkers, […]

Big Better Burgers – SM Araneta Cubao Center

Posted: March 13th, 2010 | No Comments »

After we watched the movie Alice in Wonderland in the new movie theaters of Ali Mall, we strolled around the Araneta Center and found this Burger Place.  I have not eaten a burger since the new year because I was constantly on a diet for my photo shoots! >.<  Anyway, here are pictures.  Burger was so-so for the price, I liked the fries though.  We’d love to try the different burgers next time if they invite us.  Here are screen shots of our dining experience ^_^  BTW, I only used my Sony Ericsson W760i (without flash) to take these photos.  So bear with if it is not too clear or what
 

The menu

Being silly lol

Nice Interior

3 Cheese Burger (my mobile phone’s camera can’t do macro shots and does not focus well T__T)

I love fries!

Watching Alice in Wonderland in Ali Mall

Posted: March 13th, 2010 | No Comments »

After Vince got done with his deejay-ing, we planned to use the tickets that Globe gave to us and watch Alice in Wonderland in Ali mall   We were supposed to watch it in 3D.  So, I went to SM MOA’s IMAX Movie Theater at around 10 am to buy our tickets for Alice in Wonderland 3D.  I was disappointed because they did not have Alice in Wonderland in IMAX. T___T They said Alice in Wonderland is just in digital 3D.  I don’t know the difference  between digital 3D and IMAX but anyway I just went back home and we decided to just watch it on the normal movie screen.

I was live blogging on my other blog earlier when we were eating at Signapore Chicken Rice – AGAIN!  It’s yummyliscious!  One of our friends visit Singapore Chicken Rice restaurant 3 times a week!  Imagine that… the Chicken Rice […]

F1 Bahrain 2010 Qualifying Top 10 and Pole Position

Posted: March 13th, 2010 | No Comments »

It’s Saturday and Qualifying runs for F1 happens on this day!  It’s the first qualifying ever for the year 2010 and the drivers and teams battle for the Pole position.
To make the long story short, Sebastian Vettel grabbed the pole position at 1′54.101.  He is then followed by two Ferraris Felipe Massa and Fernando Alonso.  Seems like the Ferrari team is back!  Could this year be theirs?  It was obvious that last year was definitely a bad year and a struggle for them.  We’ll only find out tomorrow as tomorrow’s game and positioning is what counts.
Again, another highlight on Schumacher.  The legend’s comeback only grabbed him 7th place on the grid.  I’d say he’s 42 (or 41? not sure) and we should not really expect him to bag it up again like he did before… But 7th place should not be a bad place to start… There’s always a room […]

Seattle’s Best Java Chip Javakula

I mentioned before that I had an alone time session in Ayala terraces Seattle’s Best Coffee.
I also mentioned that the next time I return to Ayala’s Seattle’s Best Coffee I’ll be ordering a cool drink instead of a meal.
So I ordered a Large Java Chip Javakula. I enjoyed the nice cream topped on the drink with […]
