MISSING BACOLOD SO MUCH MY TUMMY HURTS; House and lot in Bacolod

All of a sudden I have this craving for sweets! Granted was advised by my cardio to lay off sweets a bit because my FBS stats are not that good, it’s not that bad either!
But as I’ve always had a knack for sweets since my childhood. i can finish off a bar of chocolate without any help. But what kept my sugar afloat was the fact that I do not like sodas nor coffee. And so most of the time instead of ordering a coke with my meal, I’d choose the lesser evil ice tea or juice. But nowadays, I really save on calories and what best to binge off on sweets than in the sweetest city in the country - Bacolod!
So here I’m listing out my top 3 sweet places in Bacolod.
1) Calea
Of course, who doesnt know Calea! Anyone who’s ever been to Bacolod knows or at least may have been introduced to the place. It’s home to an endless number of cake variants. The best of which are the cheesecakes and the blueberry cheesecake is to die for!  The chocolate Bomb Ice cream is also a must try! When I was last there I tried 3 different cakes and I only have a friend to share it with. I couldnt care less about the calories because it was well worth it!.  Where might you ask is Calea in Bacolod?  Well, when in Bacolod you surely wouldnt miss it since it's right smack the center of Lacson Street the most famous and perhaps the longest street in Bacolod
The person in the pic is NOT me btw...

2)  Felicia's Pastry Shop
This one is also in Lacson but you'd probably have to ask around when you want to find as it only has one branch unlike Calea which has more than 2, I guess.  Felicia's offer a similar spread as Calea but some say that most of their cakes taste better.  Sink you sweet teeth in their famous carrot cake which is a sight to behold and their chocolate praline.

3)  Bascon Cafe
This place offers breakfast, lunch and dinner and their menu ranges from Filipino to Continental.  Their breakfast meals are very sumptuous and satisfying and surprisingly affordable.  But aside from that, they also have delectable cakes and pastries to offer.  These usually come in minicakes,which comes in various assortments like cheesecakes and chiffon cakes. They also have concorde, puffiana, tortes and flans.  I particularly liked their sansrival and cosmopolitan cake.  Bascon Cafe is a quaint little joint also located along Lacson St. right beside the Camella Bacolod Sales Office.
After a quick sugar fix, I went to the Camella office to inquire the last time I was there.
Czar was there to entertain my queries and even gave me a free ice tea.

I got so excited because I want to endorse this to my uncle who is planning to move back to Bacolod. They have this house and lot package for as low as P2.5M or P15,000 a month!  But what excited me was their 3BR model called CARA! It's perfect for families with small kids.
I also inquired about their referral program so all of you who want to know more about house and lot Bacolod and Camella, please mention my blog when you call 09178955333 or email them.
I also learned that they have a 360 tour page so that you can view the subdivision without stepping out of your home.  Click here for the tour.
Visit their FB page at https://www.facebook.com/CamellaBacolodSouthOfficial/ and have a chat with their marketing officers.  Ask if they have on going promos that you can avail of.  You can also reserve online without the hassle.  Just ask them how.

Looking forward to my next visit to the Sugar Capital of the Philippines Bacolod City!

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...

To OFWs: Starting your home purchase is the greatest decision you'll ever make

I have read a worrisome article from an OFW forum which has been shared and has circulated among OFW group communities. It mentioned that purchasing real estate may not be a good idea for OFWs. Apart from the fact that he the writer is trying to convince his audience to buy "stocks" as a form of investment, I am really not sure where he is coming from. I have been a daughter of an OFW since age 2. One of the earliest conversations with my dad circled around his reasons for not choosing to work locally. And the very first of these reasons was for us to have a decent home and a good life. 3 years into his work as a cashier in Jeddah, he bought a piece of land and 2 years after we moved into our unfinished house. Slowly over the years my mom would try to make major improvements like an extension or a interior finishing or a semi permanent partition which would later on form part of a still unfinished house and lot.  During that time there was no concept of a house and lot...
