Philippine Property Awards: Arya Residences

By | Proud to be Pinoy!, Real Estate | No Comments

I featured my cousin Ela a few months back.

Previous entry: Arya Residences by Arthaland May 12, 2013  

She got plenty inquiries on Arya and asked me to post again 🙂  She is very proud and enthusiastic about what she is selling and I am so happy to help her! From Ela

I am so proud of this project and i’m really trying to sell as much since this project is currently the BEST DEVELOPMENT in the Philippines as of today. I attached the most recent awards which we won in the Philippines Property Awards 2013. There has been a big increase in sales for investing in our development. Especially since expats can’t own property they need a place (large cut usually 2BR) to rent out. Tower 2, the oval shaped one which is really beautiful because of the panoramic view, will be turned over January 2016. Being the first green residential building, investors are keeping a keen eye on developments like ours. Plus with our location and BGC’s developments, by 2016 there is going to be a great demand for expats looking for large cuts to rent out.

The Vain Mama

By | Beauty, Hot Off the Press | No Comments

This Mama must be really vain to look so fresh and pretty all the time! 🙂  But dont be deceived, this girl is not only beauty but brains too!  She’s a tough one when it comes to business which explains why she’s doing very well with her online business! She told me that she is even the one who carries the boxes of the products because she is so “OC” and wants things done in a certain way! Funny girl 😉

She not only sells beauty products but she also writes about beauty.  She has a column in a blog called Glamomamas which is a website by Amanda Griffin together with other contributing Mommy writers.  Here is the Vain Mama’s latest post ( click below to go to the blog )

Blood Test at Hi Precision Diagnostics

By | Health and Fitness, Medical, What's New at Power Plant Mall | One Comment

At 43 years old, I have been spending much time in the hospital doing check ups – just making sure everything is okay.  Any sign of anything unusual I go and have it checked.  I am so happy to know that there is Hi Precision Diagnostics Plus in Power Plant Mall in Rockwell!  It’s inside the mall beside True Value.  It’s so convenient!  And I like going to this type of location so you don’t feel like you are really going to a hospital! and then after you can go shopping or eat! haha!! 🙂

It’s clean, organized and high tech! 🙂

I went to have a blood test and it’s a good thing this guy is a sharp shooter because it’s hard to find my veins 🙂

All hospitals and clinics should have this!  Sometimes they do not anymore remind you – they just tell you to hold the cotton ball! 🙂  Never assume that everyone knows!

Hi Precision was the first to have online results!  After a few days I logged on to get my results! Simple and easy

New from Pepita’s Kitchen!

By | Foodie, Proud to be Pinoy! | 3 Comments

Heart2Heart is happy to announce many new things from Pepita’s!!  

 1150830_10201806251218378_508585549_n.jpg

Congratulations Dedet, Curly Pepita Lileya and Little Pepita Liyora!!!  I have been waiting for this day for several months now! 🙂  Thank you Dedet for inviting us once again to your home and sharing your latest creations!  It’s been a year and a bit since we came and talked about your lechon and now you are already a smashing success!!!  Heart2Heart is so happy!! 

Previous entry:  Pepitas Lechon March 11, 2012

Heart2Heart will always support you!  

Nice to see you too Spanky Enriquez!  A very good friend who saw the potential in Dedet and until now continues to support Pepitas!

The first new thing from Dedet is her new HAYOP na DEGUSTATION! New menu and new dishes!  

Our pica pica 🙂

New menu means new table setting with the help of good friend and interior designer, Tito Villanueva who we missed that evening!  I love the Filipiniana touch!  PROUD TO BE PINOY!

We wore the sampaguita necklace 🙂

The new menu!  What I like about Dedet is that her food is really one of a kind!  You will not find any of her dishes anywhere because she invented them herself and she named them too!  She comes out every dish and explains the dishes and the names!  Very interesting!  I love unique dishes and trying new concoctions.  We had 14 dishes and it took us around 3 hours to finish 🙂  But in the real degustation there are 12 dishes.  

The portions are small and just perfect the way I want it!!

Magic potion by Curly Pepita who demonstrated how to drink it – The magic potion is made of lambanog and dayap poured on cotton candy

 Tendon made into chicharon with sinigang na gabi dip!

HIPon with itLOG = HIPLOG!  Super yum! You can order this as well – see below for the food to go menu

LOVE THIS TOO!!!  We were all raving from beginning to end!  That was chicharon salt inside the shell which you put on top of the bone marrow.  And that oxtail marmalade is so good!!!  Requests from all the diners to bottle it and sell!!

 Salad Surprise – Arugula with yogurt cheese with herbs, butter cashew and pop rocks!  Very good! I love this salad! 

Crab claws ( sipit ) with talangka

Lucky You!  You are lucky you are eating this! 🙂  Crystal noodles with herb oil to prepare you for the next dish 

This dish is called lambada because according to Dedet “Mapapalambada ka sa sarap and spiciness of the dish!”  Sarap talaga!  A bit spicy but tolerable.  It’s spicy lamb kaldereta

Second and third new things are the two kinds of lechons she launched!  It is now wheeled in 🙂

Dedet and I were chatting with each other since we both went to San Francisco this summer and we both had the idea of making a Than Long Lechon!!!  I am so happy it came to life!!!

Listen to Dedet herself as she introduces her newest creation 🙂

[wp_youtube]-yL_N3RWkY0[/wp_youtube]

Dedet told me it took her 8 lechons before she got this perfectly. Than long noodles inside the lechon!! The first noodle lechon! 🙂

pepitas-launches-two-new-lechons-and-degustation-menu-17.JPG

Mini lechon platters to put your lechon! 

Dedet separated the garlic butter sauce so that you put it on top of the noodles and lechon since the noodles tend to get dry inside the lechon- so you need to put this after

Little Pepita with nice beautiful long hair gave each of us ( and we were 20 ) in the table a massage!!!  She does it very well – Thank you Liyora!  Someone suggested I pair you with my Little Chef son haha!! 🙂

Pallet cleanser in between lechons – Sampaloc sherbet

Second new lechon – Lechon for the holidays- HAM LECHON DE LECHE!!!  Though the degustation comes only with one lechon, you can just add more lechons which will be additional charge 🙂

Chinese ham bits inside the lechon! SARAP!!!

It also has a sauce!  

Cholesterol sweeper – We were so happy we were eating oatmeal!  Healthy!!  Then Dedet told us it was oatmeal with Ghirardelli white chocolate!  NO WONDER it was so good!! 🙂

 Guinataan Brulee with layers of Carabao flan!  YUM!

Pepitas Super Suman!

Fourth new thing- TO GO MENU!  You can now order dishes aside from lechon!

 pepitas-to-go-menu-october-2013.jpg

Fifth new thing – Hayop Degustation goes to you in your home or venue!!!  Dedet can now cater starting next year!!!  She said she will start with small groups first.  Start reserving with Dedet already for next year!
