Classical Guitar Artists from Japan to Hold One Night Concert in PH


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Three, Two, One, Arai!

Independent Philippine Art Ventures, Inc., presents an afternoon of contemporary and classical guitar music with three outstanding artists from Japan who will play solos, duets, and trios at 530 pm on March 20, at the Abelardo Hall Auditorium in UP Diliman.

Concertgoers are encouraged to enjoy the UP campus that bustles with activity on Sundays. People hike, bike, walk, picnic, fly kites. The family-oriented concert will be a good way to cap a Sunday.

"Classical guitar has a PR problem. It seems to lack the "cool" factor steel-string guitars enjoy, and it doesn’t seem to be perceived as sexy as the electric guitar by a lot of people. You rarely see classical guitarists skyrocketing to mainstream fame, and you hardly hear of one being referred to as a guitar hero. But why? The truth is, classical guitar is sexy as hell—maybe even sexier than steel-string and electric guitars. There’s no hiding behind distortion or effects pedals; it’s just you and your mighty fingers. It's sheer beauty in its most raw, natural form. So, in an effort to dispel any beliefs or perceptions that classical guitar is boring and old school, we’ve created a list of reasons you should pick one up."

Chickilicious Chicken Steak and Tea Shop: Taiwan's No. 1 XXL Fried Chicken and More


Wazzup Pilipinas!

Taiwan's No. 1 XXL Fried Chicken is now here in the Philippines to give Filipinos real value for their hard-earned money!

My visit at Chickilicious Chicken Steak and Tea Shop gave me an awesome opportunity to try out for the first time a couple of their humongous slab of XXL fried chicken, namely the Takoyaki Crispy and the BBQ flavored fried chickens. If you love spicy chicken meals, then you can order them with three levels of spiciness from light, medium to extra spicy.

My first reaction was quite a surprise because I was expecting like a fastfood-sized chicken piece. What was served to me was quite a large piece that was a real steal if you'll consider its price. The huge piece of fried chicken was indeed very worth every peso you'll pay for it.

Match that with several choices for teas and juices. My drink was the highly recommended Taiwan Ultra Lemon Juice which was more refreshing than the ordinary lemonade drinks from other restaurants. I would have loved to try out the other teas and juices but I needed more room for the snacks that I ordered.

This is because Chickilicious also serves snacks that are not common at other restaurants. I ordered the Crispy Fried BBQ Tofu, Baked Cheese French Fries, Taiwan's Honey Bun, and the Crispy Century Egg. They were also the highly recommended snacks among the many other choices.
