Yummy Diet Low Carb High Protein Program + GoldPress Juicing Co by Fruit Magic

I have always been curious about several low-calorie meal plan deliveries offered here and there. Like most of you, a lot of questions come to mind when choosing the best diet delivery service: Which company offers the yummiest food, the lowest rate, the most generous servings, the fastest delivery, and the best customer service. While I'm no expert in answering these questions, I can only share my personal experience with the first diet delivery service that I've tried- Yummy Diet.

Yummy Diet is one of the first and biggest diet delivery services in the country. It has been serving low calorie meal plans since 2013, and has continued to develop healthy and yummy menu programs and subscriptions throughout the years.

Kumori Japanese Bakery in Japan Now Baking in SM and Landmark Makati

Kumori Japanese Bakery is finally here in the Philippines! I got to sample some of their soft and fluffy breads and pastries a couple weeks back, and I totally enjoyed each one. But what really left an impression on me was Kumori's Signature Hanjuku Cheesecake.

Celebrate Mother's Day at Gerry's Grill and Turn the Tables Around For Her!

On May 9 it's Mother’s Day! And what better way to celebrate the occasion than to be with Mom and the rest of the family at Gerry’s. Why so? We know a mother is the “Queen of Kitchen”. She was born to rule it. Day and night a mother spends long hours in her ‘mini-kingdom’ cooking up nothing but the best meals for her family.

Moms would stop at nothing to make sure her beloved - hubby and children - enjoy their time together at the dining table. No other gathering can be more heartfelt than being together, feasting over mom’s signature dishes – which are incomparable.

Now that’s the huge challenge there.  How do you make someone, who in her life has done nothing but whip up the best dishes for her family, happy?

Here’s an idea. On Mother’s Day why don’t we turn the tables around and do a role reversal? Let’s cook up something for our Moms and treat her like royalty.

Now that may sound a tall order, but Gerry’s promises to help you play the role.  There is no way that you can beat Mom’s “lutong bahay” but you can always do the best you could – by choosing to be at the leading Filipino restaurant.
