Power Mac Center and Microsoft Philippines Launch Office 2016 for OS and iOS devices


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Power Mac Center (PMC) has done it again with another first as they partner with Microsoft Philippines in launching Office 365 for Apple products. The launch of Office 365 was held at the Power Mac Center Rockwell Power Plant Mall branch on November 27, 2015. 

I'm sort of busy this weekend because of a two-day drive-tour caravan to be held on November 28 and 29 in Cavite where we will be touring the different popular tourist spots in that area. Thus, for the meantime, I'm just posting the official press release below as provided by the organizers. 

As per interview with the people doing the demo of the product installed on the different Apple devices, I've learned that eventhough the Apple OS have their own office productivity software named iWorks, Microsoft Office remains to be the most popular and in-demand office productivity tools used even on Apple products. Previous Office release was 2011 so the Office 365 which is 2016 if they will base it on the year it was release must surely have many new and advance features and tools for better office productivity requirements.

I may tell you more stories about the launch, post more pictures, and share my thoughts about the new productivity software from Microsoft soon. after I used the actual product since they gave each one of the attendees a personal Office 365 subscription.

Wazzup Pilipinas!


Farm Tourism, a component of Community- Based Rural Tourism, is now a global trend as travelers seek unique and engaging experiences. It boosts the country’s economy by improving the income and potential economic viability of small farms and rural communities.

With just a little bit of ingenuity and creativity, farmers can earn more not just by selling their produce, but by diversifying to other products and services that would satisfy the needs and wants of travelers.

On November 28-29, 2015, Automobile Association of the Philippines (AAP) Travel in partnership with Petron will hold its 11th Drive-Tour Caravan to the province of Cavite.

With the theme, “A Culinary and Farm Expedition”, the caravan will bring the participants to Gourmet Farms, Ilog Maria Honeybee Farm, Cornerstone Pottery Farm, Aguinaldo Shrine and Good Shepherd.

They will also bring the participants to some of Cavite’s newest tourist spots such as Puzzle Mansion, The Gingerbread House, Balay Indang and Balay Farmers Park.

Chef Boy Logro Judges Lady's Choice Real Chef Challenge Grand Finale


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Unilever Food Solutions (UFS) recently held the grand finale of their culinary competition participated by chefs and cooks all over the Philippines which started way back July of this year dubbed as the Lady's Choice Real Chef Challenge where the finalists from both Salad & Sandwich combo and Hot Dish categories battled it out to impress the three designated judges led by CLICKS ( Chef Logro's Institute of Culinary and Kitchen Services) celebrity Chef Pablo "Boy" Logro with the owner and kitchen geek of Pino Kitchen Studio and Backyard MNL Chef Edward Bugia, and UFS Senior Sous Chef, Chef Brando Santos.

The top 25 finalists needed to creatively incorporate the usage of the mayonnaise of Lady's Choice in their food innovations or recipes. Some of the lucky attendees from the audience, including members of the media were able to taste the competing dishes and able to cast votes to determine who will be the People's Choice awardee. The judges, in turn, will determine who were the best for them based on the criteria for judging. I assumed both plating presentation and taste will be part of the judging aside form the innovative use of the Lady's Choice mayonnaise.

The two winners of the Lady's Choice Real Chef Challenge brought home Php 100, 000 each and exclusive TV features of their establishment and the winning dish.

Dimples Romana and Bettina Carlos where there to host the event, while UFS Executive Chef Joanne Lumonaco-Gendrano and UFS Channel Activation Manager Nicki David shared some information regarding the event. I also saw UFS Managing Director Colin Butler at the event but I had to leave early so I do not know if he gave a message or awarded the chosen winners. I will update this post when I get the list of winners. Below are some photos from the event.
