Thank you to Arnold and Ginge for inviting us and for allowing Heart2Heart to share your beautiful home. Ginge told me that their family business is furniture making. So they can make any furniture to your specifications. Your parents did a good job in building your home….It’s beautiful. It is perfect for a perfect and beautiful family whom we admire. Though you guys live so far from us, we hope to spend more time with you…as we enjoy your company.

Las Paellas

By Heart2Heart | Foodie | No Comments

Thanks to my friend, Janet for treating me to Las Paellas, one of their family’s favorite places. Ned followed after awhile and joined us. Mon, the owner, was there. I told him to open in Makati so I can try more things on his menu! 🙂

It was a nice cozy restaurant across Starbucks in President’s Avenue, BF Paranque. I was surprised to see such an extensive menu. They do not serve only paellas but many many more. Mon’s wife designed and made the menu.

Ned’s order….Mini Tacos. Baked Eggplant and vietnamese spring rolls – Janet’s favorites

Here comes our paella!

Las Paellas version of Frozen Brazo de Mercedes…..Yummy too!

Hossein

By Heart2Heart | Foodie | No Comments

One advantage of being the birthday celebrant is that you get to choose the restaurant to go to! So of course, my all time favorite is Persian Kebab. And for the first time, we get to try the newest branch in Serendra. And it was so nice to see Mr. Hossein there! I was able to introduce my dad and mom finally to him. Hossein’s is opening a 4th branch in Greenbelt 3 which I promised I would visit. He says it is even nicer than Serendra. Mr. Hossein remembers James and I even when we were still dating which was around 20 years ago.We would go once a week for many years. Mr. Hossein was surprised to see our two sons the eldest being 12 years old already. On the second floor of his restaurant is a place for private functions. Another private room downstairs for a smaller groupThe restroomGarlic bread and Toasted Papad. The best dips – Misa Kasemi, Hummus and Motabal ( not in photo). Order them all! They are the BEST!I always order the fried rice ( bottom right )You have to try the Roulette kebab ( first photo on top )- I only tried this here and it is so good. Even Dad liked it. It is a kebab that has beef, prawn and chicken- YUMMY!LAMB RIBS!!! THE BEST!! M. Jun Jun made sure we ordered this. Then Dad ordered another order after. More power to you Mr. Hossein! We love you and your restaurant!

Kierulf-Cojuangco Wedding

By Heart2Heart | Bridal | 3 Comments

Congratulations to Anthony and Best Wishes to Patty! You guys seem to be so in love! Thank you for making us a part of your special day.

We were not able to go to the church for the ceremonies as we were coming from out of town. So the church photos were from the slideshow they showed at the reception.

This was my favorite part of the wedding. For some reason, I could not stop taking photos trying to capture that moment. They were dancing, it looked like he was talking to her, they were hugging each other tight. It showed the relationship of Patty and her father, it was a beautiful moment![email_link]

Mac Tutor

By Heart2Heart | Computers | One Comment

Thanks Elbert for tutoring me on my new iMac.

( Yes, yes it is Elbert of Elbert’s Steakroom. )

And thanks to my husband for introducing me to one of the greatest inventions.

I asked Elbert if I could share his services at Heart2Heart so more people can learn the joys of using a Mac. What would we do without you Elbert??

From Elbert….

I charge P2,000 for each session, which lasts between 2 to 3 hours each.

The first session is called Mac Fundamentals and is the most essential. I do not recommend skipping that. Even the most seasoned Mac users appreciate the first lesson.

After that are the the follow up sessions, which can either be a review of the first lesson, or tutorials on other Apple applications. The rate sessions is just like the first one, P2,000 for every 2 to 3 hours.

Most of my students prefer it be unstructured and we just cover what we can along the way. The number of lessons depends on the student. Some settle for just one or two, others go for as much as a dozen lessons.

I cover only Apple applications (OS X, Finder, iLife, iWork). Professional applications like Adobe Photoshop and Apple Aperture, I don’t teach.

As part of my services, I do help desk services over the telephone or via email. Of course, I can also help on some technical stuff like wireless setups and the like.

As for schedules and venue, I can go to my clients, especially if they use a desktop, or they can come to me at my resto. I prefer late morning or early afternoon, so usually, sessions 11am to 1pm or 1pm to 3pm.

contact Elbert for your MAC tutorial at: mac.teacher@mac.com

Hai Shin Lou

By Heart2Heart | Foodie | One Comment

I have never been to Hai Shin Lou before but they say it is newly renovated.This has been Dad’s craving for the past weeks. After having the “pitik pitik” in Victoria City Seafood Restaurant, Dad has been wanting to eat it over and over. They have it here in the Philippines and bigger in size, though the one in Victoria’s is still different, this is a good alternative. And Hiro was right, it is called Sea Mantis. I would recommend the fresh seafood from Hai Shin Lou.Look for Ben, the manager……The Sea Mantis – fresh from the tank
