Product Review: Aura Skin Nutrition System


The girly girl in me loves discovering new beauty products, and I recently got a chance to try out a couple of products from the Aura Skin Nutrition System. From a product line for complete face care to various soaps (they're famous for their stem cell soap), there's something to suit everyone's needs, but what got my interest were their Radiant White and Honey Butter Soap.

Den in the Kitchen: Using my French Press


I'm very passionate about drinking coffee. I honestly couldn't last a day without drinking at least a cup. As much as I appreciate the craft of making really good coffee, I am guilty of drinking instant coffee (there are good ones out in the market) on most days just because it's so much easier to make. While we do have a coffee maker, I'm usually (try all the time) too lazy to use it. However, ever since I got myself a French Press, I've been finding it so much easier to enjoy brewed coffee. It's so simple to use and clean, and it's not even that expensive.

Food Find: BeOPA at Quezon City Memorial Circle


My family seems to have made it a ritual to go to the Quezon City Memorial Circle on weekends. And no, it's not to have a cliche family picnic nor to rent one of those cheesy swan paddle boats. We go there for the incredibly fresh Benguet organic vegetables!

Antiteasis: Books and Brews Part II


When I love a certain restaurant or food place, I definitely come back to it. One of those places for me has to be Antiteasis Books & Brews. My boyfriend, Martin, and I love it so much that we've gone back there several times, and even brought family and friends along. Since my first post on Antiteasis was a big hit with you guys (you can read it here), I thought I'd do another one and share a couple of new drinks I've tried and liked.

Product Review: Usana Essentials


Growing up, I never took daily vitamins religiously just because I felt like it wasn't really doing anything for me. My family always encouraged me to take vitamins to help me stay healthy despite long days and sleepless nights in school, but I usually don't feel any effects on me (either that or I have very high expectations when it comes to vitamins). Recently, I was given the opportunity to try the Usana Essentials, and it may have changed the way I feel about vitamins.

Bite Size: Tea Rock Cafe's Beef Noodle Soup


It's very hard for me to resist a big bowl of noodles. So much so that even though I was technically at a milk tea place, I still ordered beef noodles (Seriously, who orders noodles at a tea place?). Anyway, lucky for me, the Beef Noodle Soup at Tea Rock Cafe was surprisingly really good!

Den in the Kitchen: Strawberry Mango Iced Tea


I've talked about many times in my blog entries that I don't drink powdered iced teas and juices anymore because simply put, sugar is just bad for you. However, that doesn't mean that I don't crave for a refreshing iced tea drink once in a while. My solution has been making my own iced tea at home from tea bags! It's easy to make, cheaper and a lot healthier than iced teas they usually serve in restaurants!

Señor Pollo


I've heard a lot of raves about the Latin restaurant, El Chupacabra, and I've always wanted to try it but I just don't find myself in Makati very often. When I found out that the guys behind it opened a Latin restaurant in Tomas Morato, I couldn't be more thrilled since that area is very accessible to me. If your idea of Latin cuisine is simply nachos or hard shell tacos topped with ground beef and loads of commercial melted cheddar cheese, then you better hit this place up and get things straight.

Bite Size: Pho Hoa's Flank,Tendon and Meatballs Pho


Gray skies and rain showers seem to be making more appearances these days as we enter the rainy season, and one of my favorite comfort food during rainy days is a big, steaming bowl of noodles. With so many different versions of noodle dishes (ramen, laksa, etc.), my all-time favorite has to be Pho which is Vietnamese Noodle Soup.
