Best coffee choices

My husband and I have just concluded our coffee adventure. For the past 3 years, we’ve visited every coffee nook in the Metro. Our ultimate goal – to name or at least nominate the best hot and cold coffee in Metro Manila. As we hopped on from one coffee joint to another, spending more than we should for a cup of coffee or in our case 2 cups of coffee. We tried to give each nominee equal chances and enough room for a good fight. We went to at each shop at least three times and we went to as many branches as we can. Whether it came from a well-known brand or a convenience store, we’ve surveyed and sipped into each and every coffee cup.
After 3 years the last visit turned out to be a good nominee as well. Well, here it is, our rundown of our top coffee choices:
Hot:
1.) Blenz Belgian chocolate Cafe latte
2.) 7-11 Caramel Macchiato
3.) Starbucks Mocha cafe latte
4.) Figaro Capuccino
5.) Mocha Blends Choco Cafe Latte
Cold:
1.) Java Man Choco Javaccino
2.) Blenz Belgian Choco Frost
3.) Starbucks Java Chip Frapuccino
4.) Coffee Bean Iced Blended coffee double chocolate
5.) Gloria Jeans Choco Macadamia
Note that 2 very unbiased people contributed to this short list. We don’t care about any of these brands. We just enjoyed their coffee. This is not at all a basis of or based from anything scientific because hey, we were just having our fun with coffee.

Number 1 Restaurant: an unsolicited review

I just had to write about this great new family resto we've been liking since we found it! I'm not sure if they have other branches but I do pray they expand soon. I'm talking about a place called Number 1 Reataurant located at SM East Ortigas. First of all, I don't even know what type of restaurant it is because of the wide and i mean wiiiide array of choices that it offers. It's like a Jollibee, Tokyo tokyo, Bonchon and Mang Inasal rolled into one! Amazing! Second, the food is good. I can't say it's exceptional but it more than ok for a fast food joint. And lastly, the price is awesomely affordable! For a family of 5, we've been able to order for all of us a total of 5 dishes for only P577 drinks included! With the taste, spread and price, Number 1 resto is definitely something worth mentioning! Can't wait til our next visit!

Milleneals were able to save during the pandemic and they need to invest now

I got invited by people from Vista Residences to talk about Investing Tips for Millleneals.  This will happen on Dec 1 via their Official facebook account.  Please see here to registration link. https://www.vistaresidences.com.ph/  https://www.facebook.com/VistaResidencesOfficial/posts/3825522130801187 As I was mulling over the topic for my talk, I needed to do some research on this generation which has been misjudged and misunderstood by the older gen, including mine (Gen X).  But as I conclude my deck, I realized that every generation has gone through that stage in life where self-realization is a foremost need.  Sometimes more than financial stability, the need to find the self is I think one of the most important ideals for the said Gen Y.  This is evidenced by its high level of patronage of travel promos and DIY get away trips by most of the middle class even those belonging to the lower middle class.  I remember one of my staff in the office tel...

Balik Probinsya Program: Preparing for the new normal

Vista Land supports the Balik Probinsya program by offering several affordable house and lot packages in hundreds of locations nationwide. The government recently extended the ECQ in Metro Manila and critical areas of the country to May 15, 2020.  While the rest of the world continue to battle the dreaded virus, PH has more worries ahead.  the economy is on the brink of collapsing and people's lives are also on hold because of fear and  uncertainty.  The different Department of the government each has its own contribution to the Task Force that is helping each other to solve the crisis.  But left out in the picture at least for now are the economists that would like to push for more detailed plans on how to revive the economy after the COVID crisis. DOH on the other hand is still on the limelight sharing it with the DSWD in making sure that the spread is controlled and that people would have food on their plates everyday. Short term stops are on its way ...
