One week to go and Globe Telecoms will be making available the iPhone 3G S to its postpaid and prepaid subscribers. Am making special mention of Globe because the last time I asked at the cellphone tiangge in Robinsons Manila, they gave no indication that they'll have it handy before Globe's July 31 release to the public. Am certainly very interested in getting the new iPhone and studying my options at the moment. That is, do I subscribe to a Globe plan or just buy an unlocked unit? I've remained a prepaid subscriber all these years because I hate paying monthly ... Continue Reading...
Airport security: how safe are we?
Call me a paranoid traveller. It's not just plane claustrophobia that gets to me when I fly. I also get to be very observant of fellow passengers. And I try hard to notice my surroundings closely, yes.:D It helped that me and my officemates flew six times to three Philippine cities this month, which is quite a record for someone like me who prefers land trips. Okay, we flew Cebu Pacific and the time helped me get acquainted with operations at a few of the country's airports, including the Cebu Pacific terminal in NAIA 3. My rating: HG. Hoy Gising! (hey, wake ... Continue Reading...

Kusina Selera: Davao City’s best new restaurant
Travelling to Davao City is such a pain for me. I figure I can already go to either Hong Kong or Taipei with the one hour and forty five minutes it would take me to get there. But there was something during my last trip that made me excited to go to Davao again. And the reason is this cozy little new restaurant called Kusina Selera. In a city filled with seafood and grilled (ihaw-ihaw) places, the new resto comes like a breath of fresh air. It was opened only last May and seeks to specialize in Filipino fusion dishes. It forms part of a compound which includes a ... Continue Reading...
Crabstick omelette bento
I've gotten a few bento stuff from the only full-fledged Saizen store in the Philippines in Robinson's Galleria, where everything is P85 pesos. This somehow inspired me to make a Crab stick Omelette bento a few weeks back, even though am a Lazy Susan on most days and too busy to make a bento. This omelette was easy to make, as it only entailed slicing carrots, peppers, onions and of course some crabstick, while mixing them in egg batter to form little round shapes. I added rice to the box, Chinese dumplings, a small apple and peanut butter puffs. My angel twins ... Continue Reading...
