My homey and festive experience at Chef Laudico's Feast

Image
This one was actually my most interesting food trip so far as I traveled to the north. The northern part of the country is always close to my heart because that is where my roots came from. Last November 14, 2016, was my lucky day to be invited as one of the media bloggers for Chef Laudico's Feast in SM City Clark Pampanga. The 2 hour drive was never boring as I was really eager and excited to meet the celebrity Chefs, Jackie and Roland Laudico, whom I admired for years because of their great work and of course, to feast on their buffet. The facade of the restaurant looks really inviting, the golden-colored name of the restaurant gives it a touch of class and quality. The interior of the store is simple yet very relaxing especially the ceiling which resembles the banderitas we see during fiestas in the barrio. The banig that is accentuated around the upper part of the wall gives a homey feeling. Over-all I found the place friendly and hospitable. A great place indeed, for fami...

Active Life Chicago PT by Dr. Ronald Samaniego

The Philippines has always been lagging in a lot of things. Fashion, infrastructure, and medicinal breakthrough. This is the main reason why a lot of rich people go abroad to have their pains and illness taken cared of. We don’t have the latest technology nor do we have an advanced know how on what really works and what doesn’t. Dr. Ronald Samaniego realized this predicament and decided after over a decade of gaining experience and knowledge in Seattle that the Philippines is where he wants to practice what he has mastered when it comes to physical therapy. He is a doctor of physical therapy who have over 10 years of experience. He also went through one of the most painful things that can happen to your muscle which is an ACL and so he knows what it is like to be on the other side of the fence. This is why Active Life Chicago PT was put up. Dr. Ronald Samaniego believes that even when you are going through physical therapy, one can maintain an active lifestyle. He encourages m...
