Fun and Breezy Ambiance + Good Food at Mang Inato, Palawan

My friend and me recently went on a business trip to Puerto Princesa, Palawan. Since it was work-related, we really didn't have much time, or the budget, to go around and explore the popular tourist sites. But we did get a chance to check out some not-so-known food places that was a good break from the hotel food and fast food items we've been gobbling up for 3 weeks. (How we survived that? Well we had to, but that's another story.)

The interesting entrance to Mang Inato.

 It was our last day at Palawan and we thought we'd go home with absolutely no new food places to enjoy in this place far from home. Our chattiness has served us lots of times in the past and it got us some answers this time too.

Cocina Centrale - New Food Haven in Marquee Mall, Pampanga

Food tripping is a lot of fun especially when you can make it an excuse to visit new places outside of your locality. That's why the recent launch of Cocina Centrale at the Marquee Mall in Pampanga was a welcome treat for the weekend.

Cocina Central was launched last June 29, 2013 and foodies were treated to a variety of new eats which also showcased Pampanga's homegrown talents.

Novuhair - Nature's Answer to Hair Loss

Me and my friend recently attended the launch of Novuhair's newest and improved products and we learned a lot about the brand. First off, I was surprised to learn that Novuhair is actually a Filipino brand. All this time I thought this was a foreign brand.

Novuhair Ad with the new 3-in-1 set and endorsers

 I have always been interested in local brands that provide customers with the benefits of organic products and another surprise for me was that Novuhair is not only organic, it also made use of local materials for the ingredients in its products such as malunggaygarlic, ginger, aloe vera and of course, virgin coconut oil.
