It’s really important for us to unwind and relax once in a while, DESTRESS! Because if we’re stressed, our body suffers from different illness, our skin develops wrinkles, our metabolism slows down hence, resulting to constipation. That’s why Nestle Acti-V showed us ways to destress last Saturday at Romulo Cafe.

I think I found my new number one ramen joint, and even if it’s a long drive down South, the comforting bowl of their ramen is worth it.
No Western utensils, use your chopsticks
Last summer, I was invited to the opening of the newest branch of Jamba Juice. Health buffs can now grab a cup of their favorite smoothie at EDSA Shangri-la Mall.
“We have always been vocal that expansion is a commitment for the brand,” shares Sharon T. Fuentebella, Managing Director of Jamba Juice Philippines. “We want our products to be more convenient for those who find Jamba Juice as a brand complementing their lifestyle, hence, we’re jambafying the places our market wants them most.”
At the opening, I was lucky to get behind those counters and make my own smoothie. It’s one of the coolest experiences because I got to see how my smoothie is made, from adding the fruit juice and the fresh ingredients down to blending it to perfection. Jho of Jamba Juice, EDSA Shangri-la Mall showed me how to make by perfect Strawberries Wild smoothie.
If you’ve seen some of my posts, I’m sure you’ll know that I’m crazy about chocolates. A day won’t end without me eating sweets, or I’ll get sad :(. Our grocery cart is not complete without my favorite chocolates. Let me list down my 4 chocolates I always crave:

The cookie butter craze started late last year, I’m sure you’ve seen a lot of Biscoff vs. Trader Joes Speculoos Cookie Butter showdown on Instagram. I heard someone said, it’s like peanut butter. So I thought, I’ll just make do with my peanut butter instead. Okay…another reason is that ALL cookie butter sellers don’t have on-hand stocks anymore. One seller has a waiting list until July, yeah, that long!
What is Biscoff?
Biscoff Spread is a sweet, creamy spread made with Biscoff Cookies (57%). It is a delicious European alternative to peanut butter or chocolate spread. It is excellent on toast, in a sandwich with jam or even on apples.
When I chanced upon Cookie Butter Philippines on IG announcing that she has 1 jar of Biscoff left for Php 480, I immediately reserved and paid for it first thing in the morning. Hoooray! I’ll be having my first jar of Biscoff cookie butter!
So it arrived…

Aristocrat is one of the first restaurants I’ve known since childhood. I remember their branch in Grand Central in Monumento, my favorite is their Chicken Barbecue and Java rice. We would always eat there on Sundays and on special occasions. There are a lot of new tastes and restaurants that I’ve tried since then, but whenever I pass by the Aristocrat at Roxas Boulevard, I can always say that they have indeed the best Chicken Barbecue in town.
I had the opportunity to rediscover the Aristocrat restaurant. This time, we visited their Subic branch. The Aristocrat in Subic is the first franchise of the restaurant, having met the stringent requirements of the Reyes family before approval.
Aristocrat Restaurant has a very good location in Subic, you can’t miss it because it’s just beside Harbor Point Mall.
