"Pinoys, like me, enjoy pizza. There may be some of us who pronounce pizza as “picha” or “pisza” but no matter; as far as taste in pizza is concerned, Pinoys are united. Just don’t get started with how we pronounce “mozzarella”."

I'm in the mood again for some Italian cuisine for our snack. Hhhmmm....looks like we'll be having pizza and pasta again. The two great things that I will never stop loving.

So we would like to try dining at a restaurant we have never been to yet. My wife and I were trying to stay away from crowded places so we decided to have a late lunch to avoid the lunch rush hour where it takes longer to order than to dine.

But were so tired with the usual rice meals so its off to a pizza and pasta place - the next best thing to dishes that comes with our favorite staple food.

Yahoo Philippines reports that “Wowowillie” is in trouble again. That Wil Time Big Time variety show host that has been very controversial because of his so called tactless behavior on live TV.

MTRCB has summoned executives of the TV5 show for a hearing on Monday, April 22 after its deputies and Facebook netizens complained about the skimpy outfits and alleged excessive flesh exposure on the part of the program’s female dancers in its April 16 episode.

Many are saying that this Willie Revillame dude is both the personification, and a public display of wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony. You may surround a pig with diamonds and pearls, at the end it is still a pig.

Bursting onto the national scene with her viral video on YouTube, Zendee has been an instant hit to both casual fans comprised of the masses and even the most ardent of music aficionados.

Her amazing vocal prowess and out of this world personality have brought her something all Filipino artists aspire for but rarely have the chance to get – a global audience.

This was brought about by the once-in-a-generation opportunity of guesting on "The Ellen DeGeneres" show, which she completely and utterly nailed from start to finish - dancing onto the stage with her Gangnam style dance march, to her tear-jerking interview, and topping it off with her awe-inspiring performance of Jennifer Holiday’s “And I am Telling You”.

Finally, the much-awaited album is out !

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Stanley Tan Chi is described by Wikipedia as a Chinese Filipino observational comedian, cartoonist and graphics master. Currently, he is the co-host of TV5's Front Act, and a writer who has already published 6 books including "Suplado Tips" of which humor is always the primary factor for which he gained his popularity and success along side other humorous artists/writers like Ramon Bautista and Tado Jimenez.

He also writes for FHM Philippines (http://www.fhm.com.ph), the country's most sought after men's magazine - so you already have an idea why he was there and what he really likes!

I met with the guy during the Hot Import Nights 2 Manila press conference held at Robinsons Place Manila and before the press con ended, I requested him to make a video invite for Wazzup Pilipinas.

He gladly and immediately accepted my invitation without any hesitation and ingeniously scripted impromptu a very wacky invite. No rehearsal - just pure natural humor oozing with charisma!

I liked the first video invite so much that I requested him to make another one - of which he made no second thought.

Below are two sensational video invites made for Wazzup Pilipinas!

Thanks, Stanley! I owe you two!

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The Puzzle Mansion is a remarkable destination in Tagaytay where both intellectual and imaginative can appreciate the attractions. It can be more appropriately called the Puzzle Museum instead because the "artifacts" that you can find there are stunning works of hard labor and patience. Imagine painstakingly working on a puzzle with hundreds of pieces - wouldn't you get so bored or would you be more challenged?

It really is up to the person and his attitude in life. This is where we can differentiate the more procedural and logical from the less appreciative and have short burst of interests towards tasks that would seem repetitive and habitual. Some werereally not born with the patience.

I had the chance to visit the mansion with my fellow bloggers through the free shuttle service from Shangrila Plaza to the mansion itself, courtesy of course of the owner herself-Ms Gina Gil-Lacuna. We were very much delighted about the place plus the Godly presence of the owner herself while we were touring inside her museum. At 61, she was able to explained everything to us with all her very zealous and vivacious personality not mentioning her well- modulated voice.

Angus Beef and Chateau De France : Now Available at SM Supermarkets

Wazzup Pilipinas!

You better drop whatever it is you're all doing right now and come on over to SM Supermarket in Makati because they are now selling "Certified" Angus Beef (one of the best tasting meats known to man) and has also opened Chateau De France (your authentic and complete French bakery experience) - that's two new excellent offerings from the SM Supermarket that most of us Filipinos love!

Now, there's more reasons to visit SM Supermarkets in Makati, and I'm sure these new offerings will also be available soon in all branches of SM Supermarket. In fact, aside from SM Makati,I was informed that the first-class quality Angus Beef is also initially available in SM Supermarket branches like SM Megamall, SM Baguio and SM Naga. Soon there will also be Chateau De France outlets in other SM Supermarkets.

SM Supermarket really brings us such fine selections worthy of our exquisite taste!

The Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) believes that the investor turnout for the Automatic Fare Collection System (AFCS) is proof of high investor confidence in the project, as well as in the agency itself.

“We are very pleased with the investor turnout for the AFCS Project. Serious players from the transportation, IT, banking, and retail industries – both local and foreign – all came out to seek pre-qualification to participate in the bidding of the project,” the Transport Department said.

A total of nine (9) consortiums involving major local and foreign conglomerates, banks, and IT companies submitted eligibility documents to the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) and the Light Rail Transit Authority (LRTA) last Friday (April 12), in an effort to qualify as bidders for the P 1.72-Billion Contactless Automatic Fare Collection System (AFCS) Public-Private Partnership Project.

We all know that each and everyone in the field of customer service must always consider the customers as top priority. We all aim to please the customers so we can maintain a harmonious relationship with them so that they would continue to remain as our customers.

Sometimes we even need to pamper them once in a while so they would feel important. That's the reason why there are discounts, promos, freebies, special offers, and other similar marketing strategies that are proliferating so that the customers would recognize some form of rewards for being loyal, transferring or new customers.

The same with government agencies, like the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC), which must make all situations amenable to most of their customers, if not all.

As one of ONE FC's co-headliners and Bantamweight World Champion, Bibiano Fernandes will be competing Koetsu Okazaki on a world stage at SM Mall Of Asia Arena this coming May 31, 2013. From the slums of Brazil and the isolated jungles of the Amazon to the bright lights of Manila, Bibiano shares his story and journey with us.

Fernandes grew up in the slums of Manaus, Brazil. Left to fend for himself after the passing of his mother, a young Fernandes scavenged for food in the Northern Brazilian city, living on leftovers and begging for food. He even spent several years living off the land in the Amazon Jungle. Fernandes revealed that he does not think about those young times, although when pressed, he added that his childhood probably developed his never-say-die attitude.

He returned to Manaus after a few years. Without a home and with nobody to turn to, a teenage Bibiano began cleaning houses and wash cars in exchange for food. There was a Jiu-Jitsu school in the neighborhood and he was mesmerized by what he saw. One of the students at the school became his friend and volunteered to pay a month’s fee for him to train. “He asked me if I wanted to train and I immediately said yes.” A month after rolling and tapping out veterans with years of experience, the coach asked him if he will like to compete in an upcoming tournament. Bibiano explained he had no money to pay neither the monthly fees nor the entry fee for the competition. Bibiano explained, “The coach simply said ‘Bibiano you come everyday and clean the gym’” and allowed him to train for free.

Foodies on Steroids : One Day. Many Challenges.

The concept is to invite foodies (food bloggers) who would like to take on the challenge of eating their way throughout several restaurants located in one area like a mall or a food court - all in just one day!

It will be sort of a race where each restaurant will be preparing some meals and a challenge for the contestants. Each contestant must finish the food and complete the challenge before proceeding to the next restaurant and so on.

The fastest one who can finish first, or whoever eats the most, will win prizes from our sponsors and recognition as the Certified Foodie Master on Steroids!

Soon!
