Thank you Tina for making us try your newly acquired restaurant!
We had a great time and enjoyed our 9-course lunch! We are looking forward to going back once again! More power and good luck in your new venture! It’s about time you have your own
This was not part of the 9-course meal we had – so, it was actually a 10-course lunch 🙂 Since everyone saw it on display, we all requested to taste it. This is a 24 month aged parmesan cheese
The ambience is much more cozy now and I asked Tina about the menu and if she changed everything – she said that she kept many of the old menu dishes but she changed the ingredients to better quality and fresher ingredients. And I am looking forward to the tasting menus and the executive lunch specials she will introduce soon
“We have a tasting menu with smaller portions that will vary regularly to sample new dishes. An executive lunch daily for those who are looking for a fast and light valuable meal. And a special catering menu for in house and outside functions and events. I’m creating Italian bites at the bar matched with cocktails soon and even a tasting table for wine geeks and novices alike.
L’incontro as translated “ the meeting place” is truly a place for every mood and occasion; a place for anyone and everyone..no matter how much you spend.”

Another of my angel friends, Ginggay Joven-dela Merced, starting something small and now making a BIG difference! We can all make a difference if we have the Organ Donor card! Thanks Ginggay for helping us help save lives!
From Ginggay…
If you don’t have the card yet…this is the fastest way…
HOW TO GET THE CARD
If you just need one, the best is like what others did, they downloaded the card from my flickr (hi-res) then had it laminated. I suggest that so you have it right away. Just don’t forget you need to have two witnesses sign the back. And please take time to really read the literature so you can help explain it to your friends if they ask…

BACK TO NATURE
SALVATORE FERRAGAMO UNVEILS ITS AUTUMN WINTER 2010 ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN BY BRUCE WEBER
The shots feature outdoor games in an atmosphere of relaxed elegance and a tranquil family setting surrounded by nature, in which animals and plant life play a part in the scene, helping to create a feeling of sophisticated energy and spontaneity.
Salvatore Ferragamo’s Autumn Winter 2010 Advertising Campaign was shot by Bruce Weber, who chose the exclusive White Oak Plantation at the border between Georgia and Florida as the location.
A natural park and wildlife conservation center, White Oak is home to animals at risk of extinction, enabling them to reproduce in a protected setting before they are released back into their natural habitats.
The women featured in the campaign are in the caliber of Stella Tenant, Bimba Bosé and Kirsten Owen with her two children; while the men include the model Peter Johnson with his children Kale, Lilly and McKenna, ranging from six to eleven years of age, guy Robinson and Kale.
The shooting took place in April 2010, the perfect time of year to capture the rebirth of nature at its most intense, offering an extraordinarily rich palette of greens, mosses, barks and blooms, with wildlife pictured in a handful of shots.
Indeed, it is this enchanting natural setting that emphasizes the extreme sophistication, fine handcraftsmanship and vitality of Salvatore Ferragamo collections.
The colors in the collection cover all the hues of the woodlands, while the tricot textures and leather jackets are intentionally rough and natural, and the leather in the shoes and bags have been knowingly crafted to enhance their natural and unique features.
The silk scarves printed with bright colors are pictured back in the environment that has always been a great source of creative inspiration for the brand and is the leitmotiv of the patterns and decorations: luxurious landscapes in the Savanna and forests, depicting wildcats and other wild animals.
In the Philippines, Salvatore Ferragamo is exclusively distributed by Stores Specialists Inc. (SSI) and is located at Power Plant Mall, Greenbelt 4, Rustan’s Tower, Rustan’s Makati, Alabang Town Centre and Rustan’s Ayala Cebu.

Even my very creative friend, Jun Jun Ablaza, had a beautiful set up for a dinner in jungle/safari theme! I am now wondering what the food was which I am sure was very good. Thanks to Jun Jun for allowing me to share his photos. Hopefully I can feature more of Jun Jun at Heart2Heart since he does a lot of beautiful set ups
There’s nothing you can do…. The lights will inspire you…
