Firehouse Pizza at the Crimson Hotel Alabang


I think when you tried so many restaurants , the standard of your taste gets higher and you consider a lot of things in choosing the best one. Like  the uniqueness of taste , presentation of the food, the customer service ,  of course the restaurant appearance . accessibility of the location . and the value of money . These preferences are very important in deciding where to dine in. and wishing that you will never make any mistakes after.



First  is the uniqueness of the taste -  i think having it cooked in a wood fire brick oven makes a big difference, it is not that oily, saves the freshness of all the toppings , perfectly crispy. Everytime I visit a new restaurant , The number one I look forward is it's uniqueness. The usual pizza you have , cheese will be grated or melted , and with other restaurant  they make it spiral candy toppings but here in Firehouse Pizza ,  they have a very explosive surprise in your Pizza and Salad. It is their very own Buratta Cheese. I thought it's a big mallows at first look  but to my surprise it's a Mozarella Cheese Ball with a Cream inside that adds up a kick in their Pizza,  I super loved it! They also have their very own made chili sauce , not too hot so it can help balance the taste of the pizza. I also love their Pure Nectar Buko Pandan Bottle, taste so good. Their starter plates are also a good combination, and the salad taste superb!




The presentation is delicately and meticulously prepared, very detailed. Their presentation speaks to your cravings even just by looking at it  to want it more after the first bite and as you taste they delivered what they have presented.Some food only looks good but doesn't taste good . But this one , they are really into make sure to satisfy your gastronomic experience. Great job.



They have excellent customer service - very kind and accommodating staff. You will never get annoyed waiting for your order because they will definitely serve your food fresh and on time. and one thing I hate also when I talk to restaurant staff if when they answer " I don't know" not even making an effort an effort to find out the correct answer for you. But not here in Firehouse Pizza, they all answer professionally and well trained. Great Job!



The restaurant appearance is very Instagram worthy. Those who loves to pose and very particular with  the interior look of a restaurant , this place is best for you. It has  a wooden touch  design , not too flashy, just fair enough to set a mood of comfort , peace and good vibes. Surely a great place to escape toxic schedule and unwind while having your favorite cocktail drinks .




Next is accessibility of the location . This for me is very important because like whenever I go out with my family , it is a big hassle finding where to eat specially during Lunch and Dinner Time , if you want to avoid crowded and long line counter in ordering your food better visit  Firehouse Pizza  located at Crimson Hotel Alabang  Civic Drive Filinvest City. Parking is no longer a problem , so South peeps, hang out with your friends, colleagues, family or even a date with your love ones , and enjoy great food  together into a new level of dining experience.



Next is value of  Money. Definitely worth it. Because they meet all your expectations on food taste, service , facilities so for sure it's not a waste of money to come here. You will bring home happy tummy plus happy memories with your love ones.

Discover what’s standing between you and your success in preventing hair loss

There comes a time in your life that you have to stand up and say, “Enough is enough.” And that’s the day when you decide to change your life for the better. Who doesn’t want to become accomplished? Even the “gifted” and brilliant ones have to pay the price so as to realize their goals in life.

When we fail to eat on time, get enough exercise or sleep between seven to nine hours a day, we’re compromising our health and wellness as we reduce the maximum extent that our body must function. Consequently, the effects in our body may extend and manifest as early warning signs of hair loss.

Take it from celebrity beauty and salon expert Fanny “TF” Serrano, who once personally experienced such an ordeal.  For him, avoiding harsh synthetic solutions and choosing to use the right products with natural ingredients is a must and still the best way to deal with mane problems like losing or thinning of the hair.



With this in mind, embracing natural healthy lifestyle is so important to achieve optimal health, best physical condition and healthy full head of hair. Health products made out of natural ingredients are way effective for better healing and maintaining our body’s lifelong function than those of synthetic ones. Rather than investing in those branded shampoos or other hair treatments, there’s a natural way to help arrest hair loss and help remedy its four early symptoms, namely, excessive hair shedding, thinning hair, receding hair line, and bald patches. This is none other than NOVUHAIR, nature’s answer to hair loss.


 Great news! Here’s a special promo exclusive at all participating Watsons stores nationwide. For every purchase of NOVUHAIR 3-in-1 pack at P5,280, you’ll get one 200ml. bottle of NOVUHAIR Herbal Shampoo worth P1,100 for FREE! That’s 21% savings! The suggested retail price of NOVUHAIR 3-in-1 pack is P5,280.

Teng Roma High End Salon in the South

 I am very picky in choosing a salon for my hair, had so many bad experiences make me more choosy, to make sure, whatever I try would be worth it. When I saw Teng Roma Salon’s FB Page , I got so excited right away by the arrive of it’s cozy interior. That is why I really aimed to visit the salon. On my first visit, I got impressed how luxurious it looked like in person – now that I see it face to face. The black and white motif makes it more elegant. It brings me to Europe. I was greeted warmly with a welcoming smile. And escorted in my seat and offered a drink. Wow! Just like a celebrity in a movie . I felt so special. As I watched all the hairstylists attend to their guests, they all felt like VIPs and served delicately.


The common scenes I see in a salon? Everyone's rushing, when you get shampooed, you will feel rain showers all over your face, get distracted by chatting hairstylists, but not here at Teng Roma. They handle every client gently, keenly diagnosed the condition of your hair , genuine concern is felt even to the extent of caring also with guest health. Wow! Isn't it extremely extraordinary?


We all left with smiles. It's worth every single penny you spend. Bringing home not just beauty but also health knowledge. I can't wait and look forward for my time to experience the services soon. For sure I will get more than satisfaction beyond my expectations. So wait for my next blog about how my own experience goes... Great job Teng Roma Festival Alabang.

24 Manila Chicken Delivery a Korean Chicken Fusion

Chicken has always been everyone's favorite,  the same with Filipino loving Korean Food that's why when I saw the owner's of 24 Chicken Delivery Manila interview with Chinoy TV, I got interested when the owner said they used 100 authentic Korean spices in making the special sauce for their take out chicken.


Then we visited their branch in Taft Avenue,  just across my Alma Mater Philippine Christian University.  Their concept is good for take out but they also provide a small space for dining - it was clean and simple.  Those who will dine in must follow their signages like "clean as you go". Dining area capacity is 20 head. They have a very accommodating staff and we witnessed how  they prepared their chicken and  it's a sure clean food.


Their chicken - the flavor I tried were spicy and the one with a kojujang taste. I love both. Because I love kimchi that's why the spiciness is just fine with me. This flavor is best with a bowl of rice, for sure you will forget your diet when you have this in your meal. I love how they serve their chicken in a box with foil which will save it's freshness for take out. These will definitely be included in my favorite chicken and would love to try other flavors in my next visit . So those students from Philippine Christian University and Philippine Womans University and even nearby Universities visit them now and try their chicken, it's very affordable with huge serving.  If you are a lover of Korean food, this one is a sure hit for you!


They also have other branches in

The Seashore Beach Club

Indeed, Jesus speaks to us in many amazing ways beyond our plans and yet, still His perfect time reveals how faithful He is. Sometimes we thought He is not listening or maybe He already forgot our request or maybe simply He ignores us. But the word said His answers are Yes and Amen. and all we have to practice is more patience and to exercise your faith in Him . No matter how long it takes, surely He will give it to you. The same thing with the mighty man of God Mr. Arnel Mindanao who happened to be the President of The Seashore Beach Club located in Calubcub San Juan Batangas where the soft opening was launched for their newest adrenalin rush outdoor activity -The AquaPlay.

He shared how he started in the realstate world, just like others, the journey was not that easy. During our interview with him he remembered donating gallons of water in his church outreach program during the time that he had nothing much on his pocket but still he never hesitated to be part of that program - as he believesbin the power of sowing and reaping. That as you plant in a good ground surely it will bear fruit in seasons....Years have passed, and he had this hectares of land and thinking the best way to make use of ot it, he kept on studying, learning, researching untill he remembered the golf club so he birth in into this idea of having the Seashore Beach Club and stayed in faith until exactly 10 years after, God gave Him The Seashore Beach Club and had a quick revelation of God answers from what's he's been praying for "as soon as there is water in the ocean, my blessings for you wont stop"....and amazingly abundantly overflowing outpouring blessings started and He indeed put all the glory of where he is right now to the one who makes the promise into completion and that is Jesus - our creator.


During that moment even my prayers has been reaffirmed and surely i know and believe that His time is always the best and no wasted time in waiting so long as you know who made a promise that it will definitely come to pass. I always believe that whereever we go and whoever we meet , there is always greater purpose than just attending that event and just meeting that people - there's always divine purpose for everything. He will definitely connect us with the right people, provide you with all the resources.God uses all the ways just to remind us how much He loves us and He can make all the way for us even for us there seems to be no way . Just like with Sir Arnel Mindanao .

So for those who are in their seasons of waiting, never get tired, stay in faith - keep trusting HIs - He is indeed faithful.

Now in his heart, he is praying that for 10 Seashore Beach Club would be on 10 Top Tourist destinations and right now he has his Seashore Beach Club in San Juan , also have in Romblon, Bohol, El Nido Palawan and also Ilocos Norte. Above all with God's guidance plus the support of all the members and soon to be members, and God's divine connections and resources all this 10 Seashore Beach Club will definitely come to pass because it is God who placed the desire n the heart of Mr. Arnel Mindanao and surely He will supply everything as Mr. Mindanao continue to walk in obedience and stay in faith.

Dewi Sri Farm Bali Inspired Haven

I am always a nature lover .Anything about trees, plants, flowers, in different shapes, sizes, colors, textures. Just by looking at them give me peace and serenity . The perfection of its form showcases the greatness of God's awesome creation. Travel can bring you to a new perspective - it makes you see the vastness of God's divine power to create such an incomparable beauty. God’s  infinite greatness is seen in nature.and it reminds me of one verse in the bible "You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore". Psalms 16:11

One uniqueness from Dewi Sri Farm, in Hotels and other resorts - guards, staff , front desk greets guest , here in Dewi Sri Farm, as you enter their gated facility, you will be welcomed by their astounding nature - tall, short trees - waving , cool fresh breeze kiss, smiles of the flowers, wow! this is a sure excellent way to welcome a guest.

As we approach nearly the next entry to their pavilion, a man in his bike greeted us with a beautiful smile and assisted us promptly. As we enter the main entrance , the beautiful swimming pool is very inviting, its teasing us right away to get a quick splash in that very hot approaching summer heat. Then as we have our seat, another staff is coming with a smile and greets us with a glass of fresh Red Dragon Fruit coolers. This taste superb and extremely refreshing. Plus they also offered us with Crispy Spinach with garlic mayo dips- tastes so good, plain and perfect partner with our coolers. Their staff are very friendly and so accommodating that makes you feel so homey comfortable.
One more thing that excites me everytime I have my getaway is to try new dishes. Specially if it speaks also their culture. Dewi Sri Farm is a Bali inspired resort and I am so excited to try Indonesian cuisines. These are the food that they served - Spinach Egg Drop Soup, Beef Rendang, Ayam Kuning(Yellow Chicken), Nasi Kuning ( Yellow Rice) Mie Goreng (Indonesian Fried Noodles.) And ofcourse their dessert Mango Tapioca,

These are all new to me and I am so excited to taste them.
First is their Spinach Egg Drop Soup - its taste so good, the blending of spinach and egg is perfectly fine. It gives your tummy a smooth tap that appetizes you for their main course. I love it.

Then their Beef Rendang - this looks similar to our Pinoy Morcon, the taste also almost the same the difference is it has coconut milk and spiciness taste which gives more kick in its uniqueness, I love it so much. Promise you will surely love it too.
Nasi Kuning ( Yellow Rice) it has a curry powder taste, the texture of rice is so perfectly cooked , it can easily make you burp fast so I suggest you have to eat just some so that you won't feel bloated.

Mie Goreng (Indonesian Fried Noodles) as they served it , I recalled my favorite korean food Bibimbop, presentation is somewhat similar though Bibimbop has more toppings and it's a rice meal, Mie Goreng has egg, spinach and chicken toppings, then a very flavourful stir fry noodles - this one taste really good , for me this is similar taste with my favorite Korean Chapchae.

All in all, my Indonesian cuisine experience was superb - from presentation, servings and taste , everything were uniquely special and gives an awesome gastronomic kick.
Then let's move to the next part that all travelers looks forward to in their getaway is the accommodation and facilities. Travelers want an accommodation which can give comfort and security during the stay. What we had was their Java Hut Main – these were 3 air conditioned rooms with 4 bedrooms each and it has attic area that has 3 beds. It has dining room, living room, kitchen and a veranda. This was  like a whole homey stay for us. The place was very private and safe.

We stayed in the masters bedroom. I am so particular everytime I stayed in any hotel is their restrooms and I was so satisfied - specially this is the first time I see a uniquely nature designed shower room - wow this area is very instagrammable ha ha and for me it's a plus factor .

Okay now I want to share my most favorite moment of my stay here was during our dinner time in their Pavilion - they set an awesome mood wherein our team had  our bonding time so special -they played a very good music that is so perfect with the ambiance, very fine breeze of freshness of air at night surrounded by trees and the pavilion just beside the pool area - with a cup of coffee and tea, really sets an awesome mood for us and makes us our sharing moments more special - talking about past travel/events with extraordinary challenges that brought tears, learning and end up with laughs - fun stories, celebrating together each other praise reports - new blessings opportunities that happened, sharing joys. This was made perfect with the atmosphere set before us by Dewi Sri Farm, thank you so much for this unforgettable experience.

These huge property has the following Facilities that will surely suit your needs, Bali Villa, Bali Villa Loft, Java Hut extension , The Bungalow, Granary and Sunda Dorm. Package inclusions in their overnight accommodation are welcome drinks and snack upon check in, Dinner and Breakfast, the morning snack is serve before check out, there's also free coffee or tea for the duration of stay, pool and pavilion access, guided farm tour and fish and fowl feeding. Other activities to expect is harvesting of their seasoned fruit trees.

You can have your special occasions here like wedding, birthday or even just intimate getaway with our family and love ones and even school and organizations educational trips and learn in their farm. Dewi Sri Farm is located in Purok 1 San Antonio, Pila Laguna .

Merzci indeed best Pasalubong

I super love sweets, one of the reasons why I indulged into baking and came up with my “Eunnies Sweet Delights.”

I am a big fan of pastries and TARTS are among my favorites... Before I receive this box of pasalubong from MERZCI, I am hundred percent sure it taste great because it comes from no less than the original maker in Bacolod.

"WOW". First I tried their Butterscotch, the taste is just perfect not too sweet. It tastes so good. Each pack contains 5. I finished it so fast. Then I tried the Biscocho, this is very different from the other biscochos I tried from other stores , it’s so creamy, not too toasted, good to the bite. Best to partner with hot coffee, chocolate or tea. Simply the best!

And the TARTS…. Caramel, Cheese and Mango flavored, they are all equally delicious!!! But of course, I have my favorite… the Caramel Tart. The taste is so fabulous, I so loved it... Super! The sweetness lingers on my taste buds, it makes me crave for more.

I will definitely order Merzci products and share it with my loved ones, they will surely love it. Thanks again Merzci Pasalubong , from now on , your products will be on my favorites list ...

The M. BUTTERFLY National Tour 2019



“M. BUTTERFLY” NATIONAL TOUR 2019 ALL SET FOR SIX-CITY RUN FROM FEBRUARY TO JUNE

The M. BUTTERFLY National Tour 2019 is all set to spread its wings even wider to reach major cities namely Iloilo, Dumaguete, Cebu, Davao, Manila and Baguio.


 Presented by Tony and Grammy award winning producer Jhett Tolentino and FRONTROW Entertainment (producer of highly-acclaimed independent films Bhoy Intsik and Bwaya), the M. BUTTERFLY National Tour 2019 was decided upon by the producers to bring this world-class masterpiece to those who did not have the opportunity to catch its 2018 Manila run. After all, location should not limit one’s exposure to the arts and culture.

Most theater companies in our country whose successful productions in Manila are often hindered from bringing their projects to other key cities because of the many challenges and technical details involved. And this is why Jhett Tolentino and FRONTROW Entertainment are taking this bolder step to carry on their mission and advocacy in the performing arts and to further enhance audience development throughout the Philippine archipelago.

  This revival production of David Henry Hwang’s M. BUTTERFLY is the winner of the 2018 ALIW AWARDS for Best Play, Best Actor and Best Director. It was also nominated for two  Best Featured Actresses in a Play and Best Ensemble.

M. Butterfly, which tells the story originally premiered on Broadway in 1998 and won 3 Tony Awards for Best Play, Best Feature Actor and Best Director.

Synopsis: RenƩ Gallimard is a member of the French embassy in China. RenƩ is mild mannered and considers himself to be poor with women. He meets and falls in love with Chinese opera star Song Liling, a woman whom he considers to be the embodiment of the perfect woman, Madame Butterfly. But when West meets East, everything is not what it seems..

Targeting audiences between ages 18 and beyond, the producers are hoping that this classic drama, inspired by Giaccomo Puccini's opera Madame Butterfly’, will likewise resonate to theater audiences from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao that “ love, power and deception holds no boundaries – whether this be in a rural or urban setting.”

RS FRANCISCO, the 2018 Aliw Awards Best Actor for M. Butterfly shall reprise his iconic portrayal of Song Liling, the Chinese opera singer who is Gallimard’s object of affection and seduces him through his biases of the East then exploits their intimacy to collect classified information for agents of the Chinese Communist Party.

​RS first essayed this role in May 1990 for Dulaang UP, opposite veteran actor, writer and critic Behn Cervantes. On its debut, M. Butterfly immediately rose to critical acclaim with packed houses and box office success in over 100 performances throughout the Philippines.

In the many years thereafter, RS Francisco’s theater credits in numerous productions and variety of roles continued to hone his craft as a compleat artist. In films, his most recent awards include the SINAG MAYNILA Best Actor, the STAR AWARDS Movie Actor of the Year and the SUBIC BAY INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL Best Actor.

When M. BUTTERFLY was revived recently on Broadway, RS had thought of bringing it to life once again to the new theater audiences of today. After all, this is the only ‘one’ role that continues to remain as closest to his heart.

To add a diverse twist to the M. Butterfly National Tour 2019, young actor AIRA IGARTA will step into the role of Song Liling as alternate in certain performances. As an original member of the Kurogo ensemble of the play’s 2018 Manila run, Aira is a stage and film actor from the Theatre Arts Program of UP Diliman where he took part in several Dulaang UP and Dulaang Labortoryo productions. Trained by the likes of Tony Fabella and Luther Perez, Aira was originally a dance and voice scholar at Quezon City Performing Arts Foundation (QCPADFI).

French actor OLIVIER BORTEN shall essay the role of Rene Gallimard, a former French diplomat, who relates the story of his passionate, disastrous affair with Song Liling from his cell in a Paris prison, where he is serving a long sentence for treason.

Philippine theater royalty JENINE DESIDERIO, who among many other theater, film, television and recording credits, assumed the lead role as Kim in the West End’s original Miss Saigon, will portray Gallimard’s wife – Helga. The pair married as a matter of convenience; Helga’s father had diplomatic connections that helped Gallimard ascend in his career.

After 25 years of stage acting experience in the United Kingdom, Scottish NORM MCLEOD has stepped in the Philippine stage as Manuel Toulon, the French Ambassador to China who also happens to be the dominant and strong-willed superior of Gallimard at the embassy in Beijing. Toulon promotes Gallimard to vice-consul and charges him with collecting information to aid the American war in Vietnam.

Trilingual American actor LEE O’BRIAN will once more personify Marc, the sexually unapologetic best friend of Gallimard. He encourages Gallimard to take sexual advantage of the women around him without regard for their feelings or even their consent. Although M. Butterfly was Lee’s first theatrical endeavor, his acting skills have already been tried and tested in international films Edsa Woolworth and Forgive Me Father. O’Brian also portrays Sharpless in M. Butterfly for a brief while.

Portraying the different roles of Suzuki, Comrade Chin and Shu Fang is powerful and well-rounded artist MAYEN ESTAƑERO. Her impressive performance in the 2018 run of M. Butterfly landed her an Aliw Awards nomination for Best Featured Actress. Mayen’s previous theater credits include Dalanghita Production’s Corazon Negro, An Operetta as Maestra, Virgin Labfest’s Mula sa Kulimliman as Leila and Sugid Production’s Buwan at Baril as Asawa. Comrade Chin is a member of the Red Guards, a paramilitary arm of the Communist Party in China. Song communicates with Comrade Chin often, to pass on the classified information he gathers from Gallimard.

Twice a finalist as Best Actress for the Aliw Awards, MAYA ENCILA receives her third nomination as Best Featured Actress for her unique characterization of Renee and Pin-Up Girl in M. Butterfly. The stunning Arizona native plays a young, sexually liberated Danish woman with whom Gallimard has an affair. Renee’s boldness presents a stark contrast to Song’s modesty, which Gallimard finds both exciting and obnoxious. A true expert in performing arts, Maya has taken the stage countless times as Mary Lennox for The Secret Garden, as Belle for Repertory Philippines’ Beauty and the Beast musical and as Lara for Philippine Stagers’ KATIPS, to name a few.

Rising soprano star JASMIN SALVO will be the new Opera Singer for the national tour.
The members of the ensemble playing the role of Kurogo are as follows: PHEITH IENA BALLUG, ULLYSES BASA, SASA CABALQUINTO, FRANCO FERRER and JOHN PAUL ORTENERO.

The artistic team of M. Butterfly are as follows: Jhett Tolentino and RS Francisco (Producers), Ohm David (Set), Eric Pineda (Costume), John Batalla (Lighting), Jethro Joaquin (Sound), Joed Balsamo (Music) and Carissa Adea (Choreography).
The M. BUTTERFLY NATIONAL TOUR 2019 will benefit 10 charitable institutions namely: Iloilo Prima Galaw, Philippine National Red Cross Iloilo Chapter, The Children of Cebu Fou
ndation, Silliman University Culture and Arts Council, the Arts Council of Cebu Foundation, Love the Children Foundation, House of Hope Foundation, Halfway Home for the Boys and St. Louis University Culture and Arts Center.

UBP 3rd Thanksgiving Day 2019

I was so excited in organizing this event because I've been to a lot of events for months and missed being part of those. So I asked God to lead me, strengthen , empower and manifest His divine provisions all throughout the preparation and truly, He is absolutely good. Because from the day I started planning up to the very moment of our Thanksgiving day, I felt His goodness. His divine intervention is fully present.


He orchestrate every details of it from connecting me to the perfect and right sponsors down to the actual event - His grace and faithfulness was indeed amazing. Though there might be some unnecessary delays within the preparation trying to ruin the celebration, still His divine control overruled and He's been with us and never left our side. Everyone was cooperative,  professional,  humble, generous in sharing their journey in blogging. With my almost 15 years in the corporate world, I must say blogging world is one of the exciting journey I ever had. My learning was enlarged,  stretched and challenged meeting all the very competent veteran bloggers, vloggers, writters, youtubers, media spiced it up.


I was so happy to see sponsors enjoying meeting the awesome team of United Bloggers Philippines including all the freelancers, travel and our so faithful team who travelled all the way to Tagaytay beating the long commuting period , having all of you made this celebration into completion. Just knowing and seeing the smiles of our team makes the whole tiring preparation all worth it. In addition, so happy that I got to share this event with my mom and my family gave me inspiration.  And ofcourse my bestfriend Adae Ang , who never failed to include me whenever she has new projects. In behalf of us, we are overwhelmed and I owe everything to our creator who is the source,  main root of all of these- we offer all the glory and all the honor to our Lord Jesus Christ.

In behalf of United Bloggers Philippines see you all on our 4th Thanksgiving Day!

I Love You, LC!

“I Love You, LC!” is a story about an obese Filipina (Patty Sandoval) who is in love with a hot guy (Lloyd Corpuz). Accidentally, an incident revealed that Lloyd is not interested with Patty because she is too fat.

Hurt, Patty embarked on a journey of losing weight through an unconventional weight loss method, that does not require any supplement, surgery nor exercise and without ever feeling hungry, called the low carb and intermittent fasting. This unconventional method helped her transition from “yucky” to “yummy” in a matter of few months. All her friends, including Lloyd, are shocked with her transformation!

Now armed with a sexy body, Patty is more determined than ever to win Lloyd’s heart! Will Lloyd now finally be interested with the new and yummy Patty? Or is there a deeper reason why Lloyd isn’t interested with Patty? Will Patty now have him happily ever after? Find out soon in Philippine cinemas starting February 27, 2019!

“I Love You, LC!” (ILYLC) is a full-length Filipino independent romantic comedy movie by Alma D. Roxas-Aguila of Aguila Media Productions and Services.

It is a movie conceptualized by Dave Aguila, founder of Low Carb and Intermittent Fasting Philippines (www.facebook.com/groups/lcifph), the largest, most interactive and fastest growing online low carb community in the country today. This group aims to spread awareness that obesity can be reversed without any supplement, surgery nor exercise and without feeling hungry.

ILYLC is a result of Dave Aguila’s realization about the need to step up in spreading awareness about the dangers of obesity and how it can be reversed or prevented via low carb and intermittent fasting when the membership of his online low carb community grew phenomenally from January 07, 2018 to more than 350,000 members after a year!

Globally, we are now at the highest rate of obesity. In the Philippines alone, there are about 18 million Filipinos who are suffering from being overweight or obese. Obesity is a very serious subject as this is a precursor to a lot of serious illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, cancer, etc. which is why Dave Aguila, with his wife Alma Roxas-Aguila, decided to produce a movie that will help spread awareness of LCIF.

ILYLC is written by Dave Cecilio and directed by Dave Aguila and Dave Cecilio.

Chateau Royale Hotel can make a grand experience happen

Most of us, of course needs an escape from a busy world and would love to have a relaxing getaway in a place that could offer a whole bunch of happiness to make you regain your strength from a toxic week and definitely, they have it all here in Chateau Royale Nasugbo Batangas - they can make great experience possible for you.

As you enter their reception area, what caught my attention was their very huggable bear. They bring out the kiddie spirit in me ha ha . Then i got astounded with their veranda where you can see their swimming pool that will tempt you to have a splash immediately to have a quick freshen up. A good welcome view for the guest to get even more excited to whats in store for them in their staycation .

As i checked in, we were assisted by their very kind staff Ms. Rachel Vidal, thank you so much for such as an awesome assistance.

As she lead us to our room with their very pinoy service jeepney, this is a so cute idea to have their driver wear a formal uniform , this is really totally a thumbs up!

Then as we reached our room accomodation for this exciting getaway we stayed In a cabin family with 3 bedroom great enough for our family, it had a wood sofa where you can watch tv. As soon as I entered their room, me and my mom had our back rest in their very homey feel bed with a very comfortable pillows. Their purely white painted room made me and my mom so relaxed and gave us such a good sleep. The room also have a cabinets, welcome toiletries kit.

As we walked and looked around the vicinity we saw a big field which I think is used for outdoor events like weddings and on the side, it has obstacle courses best for those who loved physical activities and also good for team buildings for groups of company outings.

Then we saw their wave pool that was so huge and surely it wil make your swimming experience into a more intense level..

There are so much to enjoy here like zipline, archery, forest trekking,rock climbing and so much more, camping - which they have during the day we stayed, surely! it was a blast, all campers enjoyed their night with the sky watching the stars on a very cool breeze weather, and earlier they also celebrated Chinese New Year celebration as they enjoyed dragon dancing with dimsum buffet to complete the celebration.

Just another successful event of Chateau Royale!

God's infinite power is felt here at LifePlace Retreat and Event Center

Engaging yourself in nature brings you to an intimate reflection of the goodness of our Creator Jesus Christ. When I saw this place in their Facebook page, I got so amazed on how were they able to preserve the beauty of God's creation. This place showcases God's perfect masterpiece and in His masterpiece there's life.

Today is the day where I can witness how beautiful this place is. That's why I am so excited. Every turn I take , at any angles, all I see is perfection. Such an awesome feeling to be just surrounded by the greens, the colorful flowers brings more life and happiness in me. The air so fresh, clean. Words are not enough to describe how beautiful, perfect this place is.
 
When I get off our ride, the cool fresh breeze of air welcome and kisses my cheeks that makes me feel more excited. My eyes cant get off looking around , all the area were clean and well maintained. They make the natural beauty of nature outstand everything. The design of their cabana is very beautiful- very pinoy style. This place awakens my inner spirit that leads me to worship and thankgiving for the countless blessings we have. Being here in the middle is like getting soak in the presence of God that rest my heart with fullness the fullness joy.

I never regret choosing this place to be our venue for our Annual Thanksgiving Day of United Bloggers Philippines. The place didn't just give an awesome getaway but it gives a direct message in our hearts how blessed we are and always remember God's awesome faithfulness throughout the generation.

There's no doubt that seeing this beautiful nature is an obvious expression of how awesome our God is. You can see Him through the greatness of His creation and how great our God is. The perfect curvings softness of trees ,flowers show how God with His mighty hands created everything with so much love, the calmness freshness of the air we breathe makes us feel God's comforting us, embracing us. The grandness of the beautiful sky at night and sparkling stars declared how perfectly God can do far beyond our wildest imaginations and also convinced us Gods infinite greatness - its beyond words, and it’s even beyond the word ‘perfect’. Totally, that's the meaning behind this place was created, the name itself tells it all indeed It's a "LIFE place" because each and everything we see speaks life to us directly - about Gods compassion and mastery.

I truly thank God for His divine connection and His provisions that lead us to the right places, there may be rough roads along the way but nothing, no one can hinder God's purpose in our lives, there may be interruption but still God will bring you there to what He has prepared for you. Thank you LifePlace Retreat and Event Center for a wonderful meaningful weekend experience.

You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore Psalms 16:11

HICC

When we understand our purpose, it is a moment of epiphany. It dawned on me that health should be everybody's concern and top priority.









A recent visit to a one-of-a-kind clinic in Makati City opened a whole new perspective. A question popped up in my mind "Why should we settle for the traditional approach in medicine when we can also reap the benefits of alternative therapies at the same time?"

According to Dr. Imelda S. Edodollon, Medical Director of HICC, "Integrative Medicine is healing-oriented medicine that takes account of the whole person, including all aspects of lifestyle. It emphasizes the therapeutic relationship between practitioner and patient, is informed by evidence, and makes use of all appropriate therapies. It isn’t just medicine. Your care team may also design a plan to help you build healthy behaviors and skills -- like smart eating habits and stress-busting activities. These things can keep you healthy for the long term."

Non-invasive whole-body scan results were astounding as Dr. Meddie discussed the findings. It was accurate enough to reveal issues with my gut and respiratory concerns. What I loved about it is it did not require blood sample, there was no need for Radiography, and most of all it was painless. The rest of the services they offer are: Therapy Services, Beauty & Wellness, Glutathione Therapy, Hyperthermia, Coffee Enema, Chelation Therapy, Immune System Boost, Mineral Repletion, Photon Therapy, and Ozone Therapy.










Rarely do we see such institutions which focus on the patient's wellness instead of profit. In fact, only a maximum of five patients are accommodated in a day as the treatment is almost a whole day process. It is vital that patients are accompanied by relatives for them to truly understand their medical conditions, how to take care of them, understand the root causes of their condition and how to make the patient’s life more bearable since after care is as important as treatment itself.

Part of the treatment is consideration of our diet. Chef Arlene Aquino Clemente is certified as a holistic raw food chef in Bali, Indonesia. I had the opportunity to consult her regarding my diet and I was enlightened on the importance of what we eat.











































Slots are limited, and advance reservation is advised.

Merzci Pasalubong

MERZCI is the trade name of CM & SONS FOOD PRODUCTS, INC. It is the leading bread and food
 pasalubong producer in Bacolod City and the island of Negros. It carries a wide array of product
lines, namely, BAKESHOP, FAST FOOD, PASALUBONG, and PURIFIED WATER.

The company maintains optimum standards in its manufacturing processes and is constantly updating
 and improving its product lines. Along with its constant improvements, it strives to deliver customer
 satisfaction by bringing the highest “Value for Money” to its customers.

In 2014, following its trademark application with the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPO)
, the trade name got updated from Merci to Merzci. With the update in the name, came the upgrades
and improvements of the company to produce better products and services to its customers. Thus,
 launching the brand in October 2014 as “The New and Improved MERZCI”. The addition of the letter
Z in the name signifies that the company has been gearing up and focusing on targeting the
GENERATION Z as the main market of its products and services. Customers can expect more from
the company in the succeeding years – new products, more branches, improved customer service,
and new ways to experience, share, and be part of MERZCI.

As of Jan 2018, the company is manned by a 1, 600-strong workforce more or less, with each
department effectively working together to produce and maintain quality products for its customers.


CORPORATE VISION
Merzci will be a TOP LEADING BRAND in the Philippine Bakery Industry in Bakeshop and Pasalubong
that is aggressively present NATIONWIDE serving quality and reasonably-priced products.

COMPANY MISSION
The company aims to continually provide its consumers with the highest quality products and services
 to maximize their money’s worth:


· By opening outlets and satellites hubs in key towns and cities in the Philippines.
· By hiring and training qualified and competent employees.
· By delivering high quality products with the best value for money.
· By using state-of-the-art technology and manufacturing equipment and practices.
· By being innovative with current trends in the national and global markets.
· By broadening reach through traditional and non-traditional channels.

COMPANY ROOTS

CM & Sons Food Products, Inc. was established as a family enterprise in 1995 in Bacolod City,
Negros Occidental. Its products are marketed under the trade name “Merci” a French word meaning
“thank you”. Though the trade name is undergoing a rebranding process from Merci to Merzci, the
company still believes that it will remain competitive in the food market.

Merzci started as a small bakery, supplying breads to a single store at the Libertad Market. Eventually,
 its popularity became undeniable due to a growing satisfied customer pool. With its high quality
breads at affordable prices, combined with aggressive marketing strategies and the ingenuity of youth,
 it did not take long for the company to establish its own branches around the city and supply products
 to satellite dealers all over the province.

Merzci also evolved into a fast food restaurant serving scrumptious and affordable snacks and
short-order meals for people on the go.

Complementing its food line, it diversified its business interests in 2003 with the introduction of its
bottled purified water brands distributed around Negros Island, namely MERCI PURIFIED DRINKING
WATER and VITALIFE PURIFIED DRINKING WATER. Despite competition from national brands, the
two brands successfully sliced a big share in the province’s purified water market in only a few
months’ time and up to present. The water brand is also expected to follow suit in the rebranding of its
 trade name.

The success of CM & Sons Food Products, Inc. may very well be attributed to its ability to cope with
the emergence of new markets and opportunities.

In January 2005, CM & Sons launched its newest line – MERZCI PASALUBONG TREATS, to cater to
 the growing tourist and balikbayan crowd that regularly come to the province. The pasalubong treats
 have gained a massive “suki” consumer crowd that prompted the company to open its first pasalubong
 center in Singcang, Bacolod City in September 2005. This branch is only about five minutes away
from the old Bacolod Airport which, at that time, gained a wide acceptance among the locals and
travelers alike. Seven months later, a second pasalubong center emerged in Mandalagan in April 2006,
 which now caters mainly to travelers leaving the city on the way to the north of the island. In 2008,
 when the New Bacolod-Silay Airport was opened to the public a new branch conveniently located at the
 Departure Area was opened for its customers who are always on the go. And, most recently last
February of 2013, BREDCO Branch was established to cater to Iloilo-Panay travelers making it a point
 that, indeed, Merzci will always be a part of a traveler’s Bacolod experience.

For more than two decades, the company has produced quality products from breads to pastries to
 Visayan delicacies to short order meals and even purified water. Products are made available in the
different branches and dealers in the Negros Island, Panay, even reaching as far as Tuguegarao City in
the North, Zamboanga City, Manila, and Cebu. Some products are also exported by distributors to
Canada, the USA, and other parts of the world.

Believing in the power of advertising and promotions, the company employs various media exposures
such as television, radio, print, and even social media to reach its varied target markets. Special events
 such as concerts, tourism and sports events, and other special activities are also considered by the
company as avenues to reach new markets.

A Sea of Zs: Sino may Z? MERZCI!
A sea of “Zs” exploded at the 35th Masskara Festival at Bacolod’s Lacson Tourism Strip last October
16-19, 2014.

Launching the New and Improved MERZCI, Bacolod’s favorite pasalubong center, bakeshop, and fast
food brought four nights of hyperfun – live band music, games, prizes, and dances – to festival guests
through nightly live shows.

A giant mirror ball, red and yellow confetti, and two sky dancers ushered in guests to the MERZCI stage.
 The unveiling of the Z in MERZCI was performed by the mysterious yellow MERZCI Man and assisted
 by CM and Sons Marketing Manager for PR & Events Femmy Lee Magbanua and Branding Officer
Lovelle Bellocillo.

Hosts Gerhard Krystoppher Pagunsan and John Gilbert Arceo, ably assisted by MERZCI Marketing
Manager Femmy Lee Magbanua and the MERZCI Dancers, led contestants in the iconic games Siopao
 Eating Contest and Barquillos Relay. More contestants won MERZCI treats in pasalubong boxes with
games like Bring Me, Pinaka-, and the Longest Z. Members from the dancing audience who did the
MERZCI SIGN with their hands won customized MERZCI t-shirts. Those who had the letter Z in their
names went home with customized MERZCI golf umbrellas.

Festival guests grooved to live music from Batukada de Negros, Aire Band, and 11th hour Band as
freebies were tossed to the audience. The last night of the show was graced by 2014 Masskara Queen
1st Runner-up and Miss Merzci Riah Angelica De Ocampo. Right beside the MERZCI stage, the biggest
 Masskara Festival PHOTOWALL offered FREE photo-taking to locals and tourists.

Meanwhile, the mysterious yellow MERZCI Man cavorted along Lacson Street, gamely posed with locals
 and tourists and did a surprise appearance at the Masskara Love Dance.

Complementing its food line, Merzci diversified its business interests in 2003 with the introduction of its
bottled water brands distributed around Negros Island.

 Reverse Osmosis, Carbon and Micron Filtration, UV Light Treatment, and Ozonation to ensure clean
and safe drinking water to its consumers.

 and achieve a more efficient workflow during production.


The company follows strict implementation of hygienic practices among its workforce and sanitary
practices in the workplace, living up to its FDA-approved status. Every product is diligently packed and
checked for safe storage and consumption.

Robin Catalan Leans On Consistency, Versatility To Triumph In Jakarta

Coming off one of the most productive years in his ONE Championship career, strawweight standout Robin “The Ilonggo” Catalan is certainly turning over a new leaf in high spirits.
Catalan won two of his three fights in The Home Of Martial Arts in 2018, including an impressive submission win over Adrian “Papua Badboy” Matheis at ONE: BATTLE FOR THE HEAVENS back in July.

Though his momentum was halted with a submission loss to veteran martial artist Hayato Suzuki at ONE: KINGDOM OF HEROES last October, that only made him realize the things that he needs to work on moving forward.
“I still want to improve my grappling and wrestling. That is one of our main goals this 2019,” said Catalan.“Those are areas that we, as a team, feel that we lack and needs major improvement, so we will focus more on that for this year,” he added.

Catalan looks to showcase his continuous development in his grappling when he takes on hometown favorite Stefer “The Lion” Rahardian at ONE: ETERNAL GLORY  in Jakarta, Indonesia at 19 January. With five of his nine wins via submission, Rahardian is known for his slick grappling skills - something that is not lost on Catalan.
Catalan witnessed his older brother Rene prepare for - and eventually beat - the erstwhile undefeated Indonesian in a strawweight clash at ONE: REIGN OF KINGS last July.

Catalan, an IFMA Muay Thai World Champion, knows that he has a huge advantage on the feet but he insists that he is not taking this match for granted.
“The Ilonggo” knows Rahardian has his own set of advantages, that is why he is working double time to try and neutralize it“I think he’s a good grappler, but his striking is not as a threat as he is on the ground,” said Catalan. I’ll study his match against my brother to see how Rene was able to get the win, and maybe add some of the things I have been working on as well.”At the end of the day, Catalan is confident that his hands will be raised after the contest.

“I just need to follow the game plan that we have. Regardless if it’s a decision or a knockout, my hand will be raised after the match.”If things go his way against Rahardian, he believes that it’s only a matter of time before he gets catapulted to contendership status.
“I’d like to have more wins. I know the continuous developments in my game will lead me there,” a confident Catalan said.

“Of course, a World Title shot would be great, but I think I need to work on getting more wins to earn it.”
