  • Benjarong @Dusit_Manila – Still My Favorite Thai Restaurant

    Benjarong @Dusit_Manila – Still My Favorite Thai Restaurant

    Benjarong is my favorite Thai restaurant, although, to be honest, I don’t dine there as often as I should because it’s a bit out of the way, and the Dusit’s location is kind of tucked away in the corner of Ayala Center that I often forget about it. BENJARONG AT DUSIT THANI MANILA I first discovered…

    Franzia Chillable Red – Everyday, Easy Drinking Wine

    I’m on a health kick right now, and, having slight alcoholic tendencies, of course I gravitated towards the “drinking red wine is healthy” camp.  And it’s true. Drinking a glass of red wine every night is supposed to reduce the risk of everything – from heart disease to diabetes, to cancer. I mean, seriously, have you…

  • Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass

    I’ve been seeing Easy Pha-Max Wheatgrass for a while now in malls and supermarkets, and I have actually tried it several times when they offer samples at the mall.
