I love fine dining and a must for me is to eating with the right flatware or serving sets. I never enjoyed eating using cheap spoon, fork and knife. Not that I’m picky but really, using good utensils makes eating more enjoyable. And recently, I found out that one of the best utensils is now being sold in the Philippines. Eating will be more exciting because not only that I can experience it in fine dining restaurants but also, at the comfort of my own home. Introducing KNORK

One thing I learned from being a Movie Blogger aside from not giving out spoilers (which is a the ultimate rule!) is to not judge a film by its trailer or poster. I have proved this a lot of times and it’s the same with what I feel for “We Bought A Zoo” when I first saw its trailer. Though I predicted already that this could be a family drama but I never realized how outstanding this film was when I saw it during its press screening last January 12 at the Powerplant Cinema 2. In “We Bought A Zoo”,…

Since last year, I’ve been playing Snoopy’s Trade Fair in my iPhone (the same beeline offline game that produced “The Smurf’s Village” which I got obsessed at one point). That’s why when I got excited when I found out from fellow Blogger Ruth Floresca that   9 Works theatrical will be showcasing “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown”. I’ve been a fan of Snoopy and the Peanuts Gang way back in my elementary days. Although I love Garfield more, I secretly read Snoopy’s comics and draw them alongside Garfield. Here’s an info I found at Wikipedia to give you an…

I have a Puerto Rican-American friend named Antonio Robert Cortes who is the former lead guitarist/back-up vocals for the band HYBRID DAWN (f.k.a RECEPTOR) based in New York City. I’ve met him thru an acquaintance, Jing Maniebo, who is a big fan of Cebuano-band Cueshé, whom I promote circa 2006. She asked me if I’d be willing to help Hybrid Dawn in finding a record deal in the Philippines. Antonio Robert Cortes or Tony is not really new in Manila as they have traveled here before as part of a tour they did. His band also have a Filipino member,…

Finally, ABS CBN is now promoting “My Cactus Heart” movie starring Maja Salvador, Matteo Guidicelli and Xian Lim. I was actually wondering why it’s not getting much promotion and publicity and I realized maybe it’s because of the Metro Manila Film Festival, and maybe because it’s still conflict with the ongoing “My Binondo Girl” where the three actors are also part of the hit teleserye. Here’s the full trailer of “My Cactus Heart”:
