Events Archive

I usually don’t attend events at night..unless if it is a sponsored event or I really love the agency inviting me to attend the said event..or if the venue is really near.. well in the case of Savor Bloggers Night, I have two reasons to attend: I love the agency and the venue is really near me.. isang kembot lang!

As promised, it was a night of amazing food, fun games, prizes and more..

Let’s start with the food..

“SAVOR Filipino Cuisine was born out of a shared desire amongst its founders to brings classic recipes to a young generation of Pinoy-food-loving diners. Partners Mel Dumlao, Racquel Estrella, Owen Gan and Executive Chef Trina Tiaoqui-Imperial were inspired not just by their love of Filipino food but also their love of making, sharing and celebrating our local cuisine.”  -Mr. Owen Gang (one of the owners)

Boneless Chicken Inasal

Smoked Sardine Efuven

Crab and Shrimp Relleno

Cowboy Sisig.. that’s cow + baboy sisig.. this dish really stands out, well for me.. because I love sisig and I never thought that beef and pork would make a good sisig together. This dish alone, makes me want to bring my family to Savor and let them experience Cowboy sisig.

Crispy Binagoongan is also good.. the bagoong is not that salty..Savor makes their own bagoong for this dish. It’s my first time to eat crispy binagoongan and I really like it..feels like eating lechon kawali and binagoongan.

Sa pula sa puti is a combination of chicken meat and pork meat, cooked as adobo without the soy sauce.

 For desserts, we had these two treats.. sans rival and miruya with ice cream (not sure with the name)..Miruya with ice cream is really good..I can’t wait to order this when I bring the kids here.

FUN GAMES!

because Savor is a Filipino Cuisine restaurant, our games was all about Pinoy movies… we also got to try some of their specialty dish and we have to list down the ingredients that we tasted..

wagas talaga ang tawa ko no.. at serious sa food tasting test LOL

SM Kids’ Fashion launches their summer collection at Dusit Hotel in Makati City. This season’s collection is all about bright and colorful ensembles. Joy Dy Juanco, Vice President of SM Kids’ Fashion, shares, “Our summer 2013 collection is bigger and brighter than ever before-brilliant hues, bold prints, breezy fabric. Throw a big pool into the mix and you have the perfect summer party.” The event includes a summer fashion talk with image consultant Ms. Patty Betita with her team of junior stylists. And the fashion talk does not end there as SM Fashion Kids’ brings Style Lab, Fashion Styling Workshop to SM Mall near you. Check out the photo for details: 

 Head on to the nearest SM mall near you to see the newest collection from SM Kids’ Fashion.. just a warning though.. everything is too cute not to buy! hahaha The last time I was there, I almost bought everything! But since I can’t do that, I managed to grab a few shirts for the boys and a few cute outfit for the princess.. look! 

Sati adores her yellow top and wants to wear it every time  While Chico loves his hooded muscle shirt.. and now they’re asking for more summer clothes! Even the bigger boys want a hooded muscle shirt.. oh well, summer is still a long way to go.. we’ll definitely buy a few more summer clothes from SM Kids’ Fashion.

I can say this gotta be the most fun run I joined since we started last year.. I ran with one of my closest friend, Mommy Levy. It was my first time to run 5k.. was really nervous and thought of backing out hehehe good thing, when we arrived at MOA, I spotted Levy and we run together (15 minutes late!). It was super fun pala running with a friend.. specially if that friend is Madamme Levy.. Our 5k run was like, jog, walk, talk then laugh.. at natapos namin ang 5k in less than an hour with that formula! We could have walked the whole 5k stretch, pero mga teh, inspired kame to jog or run whenever there’s a camera, so thank you to the cameramen, you made our 5k run shorter.

finish line, at last!

at hindi pa din naubos ang iyak nya after 500m hahaha

We were not able to go around the active health village..sayang as there were so many activities for the kids pa naman. Our whole RU1 experience was great but I hope they can improve more in terms of handling the 500m dash event:

• It would have been better if the daycare is near the starting line. It was such a hassle bringing the kids from the day care to the starting line.. Another thing, since they also have a holding area near the starting line, they could save a lot of man power if the daycare is near and will also serve as a holding area. Also, since the starting line is also the same area as the finish line for other events, parents with kids on the day care wouldn’t have a hard time going to their kids (to prepare them for the 500mdash) if the daycare is near the area.
• I also noticed that the security was more relaxed. In the last few runs we attended, you cannot easily fetch your kid from the holding area without showing the matching wrist tag.. this year this was not practiced.. and my husband even commented that my first born just went straight to him.

Lastly, the new Dtag system is not a good one.. well from my expereince as the Dtag of my first born fell while he was running.. and I also noticed a few Dtags while running.. the last Dtag system was better. So I hope they’d improve it the next run.

I hope on RU2, we can see a few changes for the good.. and yes. we’re all excited na for that and hopefully we can stay longer to try out some games from the sponsors.
