    Easy Grilled Salmon with Honey Mustard Sauce

    A few nights ago, we had the most amazing salmon dinner at home! We all think that having a salmon meal is quite expensive – and it is, if you have it at a good restaurant. But you can easily make a quick salmon dinner at home yourself, and feed your entire family, for less…

    Pablo’s Pub and Restaurant is a good place to try if you are in the BGC area. It is located at the second floor of the Forum, on 7th Avenue cor. Federacion Drive. The Forum has actually been opened for more than a year now, and we have been to the Fort Strip several times…

    Vask Modern Tapas & Gastronomic Cuisine

    The other night, I was invited to a Zomato foodie meetup at Vask Modern Tapas and Gastronomic Cuisine. It is located at the Clipp Center along 11th Avenue in Taguig, in what I call the “other side” of BGC. It’s on the other side of 32nd St from where all the usual BGC haunts are.…

    World Poker Tour 2016 at Solaire, Jan. 2-8, 2016

    I am not a big gambler, (obviously! kasi barat, haha!), but I do enjoy playing an occasional game and having fun at the casino. One time, I think we spent a record 18 hours inside one! J and I were there at Solaire the next day it opened, and I really enjoy the nice amenities…

    Cheapest Legit Internet 1GB for P70 – Smart Big Bytes 70

This is apparently Smart’s counter to Globe’s popular Gotscombodd70. Smart’s Big Bytes 70: 1 GB open access volume no text…

  • Snow Non-Dairy Whipping Cream

    Snow Non-Dairy Whipping Cream

    Have you ever wondered how some bakers are able to keep their whipped cream frostings in shape even after hours at room temperature? The secret could very well be Snow – Tebeemini Corporation’s Non-Dairy Whipping Cream. It is a non-dairy whipping cream that is very stable when whipped, and will not melt even if left…

  • UnliSurf 50 is Back Again?

    UnliSurf 50 is Back Again?

    I’ve been getting some reports that Unlisurf 50 is back. This is not confirmed, though. However, a quick scan of the local telco discussion hangouts and social media showed that some people claimed to have been able to register to Unlisurf 50, particularly using Smart Bro. Apparently, it’s a try-and-try-until-you-succeed sort of thing. From Smart’s…

  • Lucky’s Burger & Bar Review

    Lucky’s Burger & Bar Review

    I had been meaning to try Lucky’s ever since I heard of it. It is located at the Tuscany in McKinley Hill. It was getting some buzz when it opened late last year, but bars are not typically my venue of choice, so we just never got round to it. Fortunately, I was invited to…

  • Smart Promo Auto Renewal Problems

    Smart Promo Auto Renewal Problems

    I have been a happy user of Smart’s postpaid Freedom Plan since it first came out in 2012. I didn’t have any problems with it and even convinced my immediate circle to switch to the Freedom Plan. This was the moment when I changed how I looked at Smart. Before that, I always thought of…
