At five years old, my son has started to develop his own taste preferences and I am taking note of them because it gives me joy seeing him enjoy the food he likes.   I try to veer away from restaurants that I know he won’t like even if I like those places.

This weekend, we tried Sumosam for lunch for the first time and I was hoping my son’s Japanese blood will enable him to appreciate the dishes there. True enough, he liked his beef gyudon big time, making its expensive price forgivable.

With this I really need to buy fitness equipment now.

A month after we’ve been through a kansi (beef broth) feast during our last vacation in Negros, my wife discovered that there’s a resrtaurant in Allgero Center along Pasong Tamo extension who also offered kansi. Pat-Pat’s is a well known restaurant for its kansi in Ilo-Ilo City. It also has branches in Roxas until we realized that it also has two branches here in Metro Manila: one in Vizayan Avenue and another here in Makati.

After having our regular grocery time one weekend and as the cashier was printing our bill on tm-t88iv I asked my wife where we’d have our lunch and there she told me about the Kansi house she recently discovered.

For someone who’s exposed to the cosmopolitan lifestyle but is missing the provincial life in Ilo-ilo, Pat-Pat’s Kansi house will help bring you back that feeling because of this Kani’s distinct taste that’s unique to people in Ilo-ilo.

I was shocked when I learned that I gained seven pounds last December. I know this is due to the sudden halt of jogging routine and because of “kansi” or beef marrow stock that I feasted on during our vacation in the province.

Now I’m planning to go back to my usual routines via small exercise and jogging. I hope to go back in shape without the need for slimming pills.

Health insurance is a thriving business these days because people have been very concerned about their health. No one can blame them from behaving this way. With the high cost of hospitalization and doctors’ fees, being sick is very expensive.

I’m thankful for having HMO. Nevertheless, still looking for health insurance leads so I am assured that I’d have the best deal one can ever have.

It’s been two years that I’ve been using my Paypal account for my online transactions and I never had a bad experience with it. I even recommend it to my friends who wanted to have transactions online. If you want to monetize your blogs, that’s what will make my uncle ask me how to open Paypal account in the Philippines since he doesn’t have Credit Card. Maybe he had a bad reaction about credit card fraud and other identity theft protection cases online.

If you have credit card like me, you can also use Debit Cards to make payments for the registration. You can open an EON account a debit card account like in Union Bank.

Chateau Royale is a 15-hectare prime real estate that offers great accommodation and amenities. It is located in Batulao in Nasugbo, Batangas and it is very near Tagaytay. If you want a climate like that of Tagaytay but you prefer more peace and quiet location for your family, I think Chateau Royale Sports and Country Club will fit your needs.

We happened to visit the place and was able to experience its amenities when we spent another long holiday at the Evercrest Golf Club and Resort close by. If you stayed in this hotel, you also have a privilege to use some of the amenities of Chateau like the swimming pool since both resort and country club are owned by one company, the Ever Gotesco Group.

The place is ideal for family activity or relaxation. It is also for company outings, retreats, team-building activities, weddings, business seminars and similar gatherings.

Aside from hotel rooms, it also has log cabins, glass and metal buildings which may be best for retreats or seminars for large groups. There are theaters rooms, swimming pools, restaurants, fishing lake, wall climbing, paint ball, horse back riding trails and obstacle courses.

We really had a great holiday in Nasugbu, Batagas and I am hoping to visit the place again.

Every time we go to Tagaytay, it has been habitual for us to drop by Taal Vista Hotel either to have something to eat or have coffee. We cannot let Tagaytay pass by without seeing the most beautiful view of Taal lake and the volcano. It is really a nice place to relax and have a break after more than an hour’s trip from Manila. It is nice to have yourself refreshed on its American Standard toilet Dine in their cool and elegant lobby really and it can take you far beyond the plate.

Aside from this, the most preferred place to be visited by tourists is Tagaytay because this place is almost historical and cultural among Filipinos.

That’s why I aspire to stay in Taal Vista Hotel one of these days. I hope that with the new discount scheme, I can now experience the elegance and the luxury of this hotel.
