We bumped into Leah Sison Magallanes who is the head of Food and Beverage at Pico De Loro. She is in charge of all the food outlets and training all the chefs in the place
The dinner buffet comes with the show and was supposed to be by the beach also but due to the rain, it was moved indoors.
Together with great entertainment was great food! We had great Filipino food!! Leah is obviously doing a great job!!

We went all the way to Pico De Loro to watch our cousin Bea perform!
The gig was supposed to be by the beach but it rained so it had to be moved to the ballroom. The beach would have been really really nice!!!
But we still had fun and Bea of course was great and getting better everytime!
So happy my brother, Jun Jun, came along together with Margs and her family! We had a nice time!

Previous entry: Welcome to Diesel Island March 19, 2011
After settling on the island, the pioneers need to turn the Successful Living philosophy in a set of principles and prescribe their own rules: this is showcased in the new development of the brand’s campaign, the writing of
The Diesel islanders have not lost their hope in fighting for their right to succeed, taking the Be Stupid manifesto of having balls, letting go, creating stuff, throwing it all in the air and seeing where it lands.
The campaign comes to life with a 360° approach. On Diesel’s main site each picture will be featured as a pop-up book, having a different animation, representing one of the laws of the Constitution. Along with the set of laws, the election of a government where social networks serve as polling places: a facebook application, an Island TAB, a YouTube Channel, and digital gadgets on FlickR. Furthermore, a video will be broadcasted across social media sites: a parody of a musical, where the pioneers sing the principles of the Diesel Island Constitution.
On top of it all, the
The future of the island is yet to be revealed. A small hint along the way: we are f****g it up.

I heard about this place from our friends, Mart and Sam and thought it would be a nice place for our next lunch with the group. When I arrived it reminded me of a place we went to here before and apparently it was. It was the old Fat Michael’s.
A French guy, Chef Patrice, took over the place. He used to run a restaurant in Puerto Galera and has decided to come to the city
A nice and cozy place, just like we were in our own home 🙂
Two notes from Lucille which she sent to us
Chef Patrice says that he makes everything fresh except for the bread! He can make french breads but it is just too time consuming for now. And just like the real French Cuisine, Chef Patrice says he does not put any salt and pepper, you have to put your own
Brown bread! A healthier aletnerative
There is an ala carte menu
Det who is on a Cohen diet, did not get the set menu instead she just ordered the Terrine, French meat loaf. Which was good
Carbonara for everyone to share aside from our set meal
And we all had the set menu which we find very reasonable. It’s always good to have a set meal where you have a complete meal from starter to dessert
Starters
Terrine, French Meat Loaf
Soup of the Day – Cream of Broccoli
Green Salad
This is what Mart knew I would like. Steak Tenderloin in Blue Cheese
Salmon Papilotte
Beef Stroganoff
And Brenda had the Special Main course for the day
All desserts come without any sugar added. They were good enough for us. We appreciate healthy dishes nowadays especially with two of us having caner, one on a Cohen diet and the rest who have to lose some weight and eat healthier 🙂
Chocolate Mousse
Creme Caramel
Apple Pie

Italian luxury goods empire Salvatore Ferragamo, is renowned worldwide for its outstanding craftsmanship and au courant designs. Tinsel town’s fashion-philes have been spotted donning the latest renditions from this fashion power house at the recently concluded Venice Film Festival, banking on Salvatore’s designs for that perfect vogue moment.
Top-model Cindy Crawford looked ravishing in a one-shouldered gown as she attended the Ides of March premiere. The ageless beauty chose a Salvatore Ferragamo minaudière with oxblood leather and gold metal details to complement her elegantly beaded gown.
German actress Diane Kruger looked stunning in a sparkling and elegant gown as she attended the movie premiere of Ides of March at the Venice Film Festival. Even without much jewelry, the actress looked drop dead gorgeous as she accentuated her gown with a pair of Ferragamo double platform, ankle-strap silver satin shoes and a shimmering silver karung minaudière.
At the premier of the movie Contagion, actress Eva Shangyi Huang looked elegant in a long-sleeved black, beaded evening dress complete with a belted waist. The actress combined it with a black, embroidered, geometrical-shaped chiffon minaudière to polish her look.
Actor Filippo Scarafia attended the premiere of the film Terraferma, styled in Ferragamo. He looked debonair as he donned a black tuxedo with two-button jacket which he paired with a white tuxedo shirt and black leather slip-on shoes. For the photo call of the film, Filippo looked dapper in a blue, double-breasted jacket and a pair of denim pants, paired with a white shirt. He accessorized his look with a pair of 3-tone suede lace-up shoes and a grey satin pocket handkerchief.
The Kineo Awards bore witness as the beautiful Valentina Lodovini attended the event in a dark blue, jersey cocktail dress with draped motif from Ferragamo’s AW2011 Collection. The actress was also seen at the premiere and photo call for the CoseDell’Altro Mondo film wearing the much coveted Ferragamo black suede cap toe pumps with silver metal detail.
Actress Evan Rachel Wood knows how to amp her style factor with chic ensembles as she was spotted out and about wearing a pair of Ferragamo hounds tooth python pump at the photo call of her film, The Ides of March, and black suede cap toe pumps with silver metal detail when she arrived at the Hotel Excelsior. Wood then stunned the red carpet crowd as she attended the premiere of Mildred Pierce, looking lovely as ever in a black, lace-detailed dress while clutching pewter, metal and black karung minaudière. At the Gucci Award ceremony, she opted for a black on black motif and kept in hand a gold metal minaudière with black leather geometrical patterns to give her ensemble a stylish twist.
In Europe, Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted strutting the streets of

Ron was so proud to show his new toy store to me which carries all educational toys! It had just opened two weeks ago! He told me that he put up this toy store for his kids. Playing and learning go hand in hand. It’s a FUN way to learn. Every afternoon, after office, Ron picks up Rianna to go to the store to play and spend time with her. Congrats Ron!! MORE POWER on your new business venture!!
on told me that he chose toys that the whole family can play together rather than the type of toys or gadgets that you play or use individually
One of the family games is Katamino. It’s made specially for the store as it is branded FundMentals
I particularly like this brand which are handcrafted wooden toys
More educational toys

Classroom toys
The gang came over to support Ron on his new toy store, so we did some christmas shopping
