Hahaha! Parang Yakimix nung unang bukas. Dami taong nakapila! Pero nung nag Yakimix ako last Christmas, sus akala ko pa naman eh may something spectacular sa pagkain nila

Yung 3thou price ng spirals sulit na din.

- Meron 21 atelier. Eating is like travelling. Meron ka matutunan na bagong pagkain.
- Ang mga 5 star hotel meticuloso sa ingredients at jan una napupunta mga certified organic produce.

Ang problem kasi sa noypi pag kumain ng eat all you can eh patay-gutom mode. Kainin nyo lang yung kaya ng tiyan nyo at alamin kung makakaganda ba sa katawan.

Kung baga kung may kwarta naman mas maganda na gastusan natin una yung tiyan muna tapos pangalawa clothing tapos bahala na kayo kung ano na next.

Syempre binayaran nila yun e. kaya nga eat all you can e. atsaka mas maraming taga ibang bansa na ang lakas lumamon magmumukhang demure ang pinoy.

What are you smoking? I wanna have some of that.

It gives me a lot of pleasure knowing you missed the punch line. Proves my point.

Also, I love how you draw conclusions from a sample size of n=1. Though I will agree with you I may have over stated the 50%.

And you come up with the most insightful views into the filipino by looking at what a tiny fraction of the population do. Your small view of the world is a wonderful reflection of your mind. I quote:'may kwarta any noypi hindi marunong kung among dapat unahin.'

Sabihin mo nga iyan sa isang ina sa probinsya na nagtratrabaho tapos naghihirap upang magpadala ang kanyang tatlong anak sa paaralan. Hindi siya bumibili ng kahit ano para lamang makapasok yung mga anak. Then the oldest kid sacrifices her education at grade 6 because they don't have enough money so that the younger two sisters can also go to school. And then the older sister a few years later enters a household maybe in metro manila, maybe in a household similar to yours to work as a maid so she can help pay for the siblings high school and college fees. And I can tell you that the sample size of this is NOT n=1.

And yeah you flipantly say Filipinos don't know what to prioritize.


Anyway who am I to deprive anyone of enjoying lala-land.

Reminder lang, it's ok to express everyone's opinion. Pero unnecessary use of bad words and condescending remarks give away one's level of depth and class regardless of the riches he/she might have.

Peace all!

Status symbol na rin ata kung saan hospital ka pumupunta. Pansin ko daming nag check in pag nasa St Luke's BGC, Asian Hospital or Makati Med. Di ko alam kung seeng sympathy o para sabihin sa mahal na hospital sila nagpupunta. Wala naman sakit. Karamihan check up lang

Kung meron SC. E meron ding ANTI-SC-> eto yung mga walang ibang magawa kundi punahin ung mga pinag- gagawa ng mga SC. lulz :D

[Chikselog]

Regarding sa mga nagppost ng mga kinakain nila online, lalo na sa mamahaling restos, para sa akin, okay lang kung yung tao e alam kong talagang mayaman at afford nila. IMO hindi nila ipinagmamalaki since wala naman na silang dapat patunayan, mayaman eh so alam mong anytime they can eat at expensive restaurants. Tsaka madali namang makita kung nagpapasikat lang yan eh. Basahin mo yung caption. Kapag name lang ng food, maikli or walang caption at all, usually yun yung afford nila talaga. Pero kapag halos mag-blog na sa haba caption nya, yan ang SC. :D

parang dito sa thread, daming anti SC.

Hindi siguro.

Since napagusapan na din ang bread talk, gusto ko lang sabihin na masarap ang tinapay nila! Sayang wala akong alam na Bread Talk branch sa Marikina Pinakamalapit yata yung nasa Cubao.

sa banawe may isang bakery parang Bread Talk -- Formosa -- meron din sila floss

I don't think so. We go to these hospitals because of the medical services available and how they make our stay way better than any other hospitals.

My first baby was delivered in a "non-SC" hospital. I had a diplomate/super specialist for an OB though, I was more than satisfied especially with how she did the caesarian section, no after-pains, a very low and not visible scar. But I do not like the hospital and the administration. I experienced my first highway robbery. Was so disappointed with the accommodation. They claimed it was their suite, but for me it wasn't. Just an ordinary room. It took the nurse one day to prepare for our discharge. They used their own cheap diaper and charged us for that exorbitantly. Not a baby friendly hospital. I asked that I room-in my baby so we could look after her, but nursery confinement seemed to be their standard procedure.

Since my OB is not affiliated in one of those "SC" hospitals, I got a new OB in a new (SC) hospital. Now, I am happy with my OB and the superb service. Nurses are brilliant. No hidden charges. I am one happy client.

Medical service is a priority. But I do not notify friends by FB check-in, because of this notion that these "SC" hospitals are expensive. I have known some people who could easily go to Europe but would rather check in their kids in PCH or any adult family member in East Ave.

A bigger chunk of the family's budget is devoted to medical emergency. For me, this is a priority, more than I prioritize education. We believe in the genes we transmitted to our child, so she'll be fine in the country's premier school.

Since these people can afford to get confined in those hospitals, they are not only after of the status, of paramount importance is service. In these SC hospitals, one call, expect them to be at the door.

Ang pinaguusapan dito yung niyaya ko kumain sa spirals na in one year gumagastos ng kulang-kulang 160thou para lang sa cellphone na mahirap gamitin. Kaso nagdrama ka na bigla mo pinasok yung half of the country tag-gutom.

Yung drama mo na taga mindanao eh obvious naman na walang kwarta yun. Pero marami may pera na hindi marunong gumamit kung ano dapat unahin. Touchscreen touchscreen pero kain angels burger with free diatabs.

Wow obviously you don't know what your talking about. A/c, and refrigerator are among the few things squatters have in their homes. And not to mention concrete houses on lands that they don't own. Do you think they pay for electricity?

Take a look, and observe, it's not n=1

This is my opinion and nothing else.

+1 My Dad does not hesitate on spending when it comes to food because it also teaches us about culture aside from just nourishment. Tipirin na lahat wag lang pagkain. Maraming ganyan na ang lakas gumastos pero pag dating sa kainan ang kukuripot?!?!? Pag ganyan ang tao hindi na namin sinasama sa mga lakad. Sarap sabihin na ang cellphone, sapatos, damit or car or ba niya nakakain niya, as if naman yung mga gamit niya helps improve his or her character.

I do agree that having a refrigerator is necessary even for squatters, but airconditioning is a luxury. If they could afford airconditioning, they should be able to pay for land and not squat off someone else's property. I also assume that they do not pay for electricity as well. I think Meralco charges us paying customers for this loss.

Imagine having to pay these people to vacate land which you own? Sila pa galit pag papaalisin mo na,

Walandyo,- nahilo ako sa dami ng posts dito....

I also assume that they do not pay for electricity and I believe that Meralco charges us paying customers for this loss.

I have no sympathy for squatters. Land owners even have to pay these squatters to vacate their property that's been with their family for generations or which they acquired from hard work. Squatter pa galit pag papaalisin mo na! WOW!

^ dati atang taxi driver may-ari nito kaya mga original clients niya eh mga taxi driver
thats what i've heard sa brother ko nun nag taxi operator siya dati
pero hindi ko pa rin nasubukan kumain dun but would love to try it

I see a lot of taxis nga. I really want to try it one of these days.

Sosings is a small open air carinderia (turo-turo) in the corner of Dian and Zobel Roxas in Palanan, Makati. They serve (good) bulalo, callos, and caldereta among other lutong bahay viands.

I pass by this place going home from school. My Dad told me that the bulalo is good nga.

Has anyone tried Aysee's near Ultra? We used to go there a lot. I'm not sure if the food is still good though.
