We are frequent visitors of Ever Gotesco Mall Commonwealth since I was a teenager. When I’ve had the kids, we go to this area because we can still find many interesting shops at this mall which aren’t present inside the 3 giant malls near our home. I’ve just recently found out that there are a lot more things to do better than shopping when you go to this area – food! I was lucky to be included in the recent Grand “Food Crawl” held by EVER Group of Companies in Calle Bistro – a new lifestyle strip...

We’ve loved eating in Bonchon since the day we discovered it at SM Fairview. My daughters were still toddlers then when we tried our first soy glazed chicken and until now, we often crave for the crispiness and the sweet soy flavor.

Moms like me are well aware how much better in terms of everything (price, quality, quantity and nutrition) freshly home cooked food are than processed food.

This is a great problem for most of us who, for lack of the terms to use, “doesn’t have too much time” to actually go to a wet market to buy ingredients.

Hazelnut spread is an all-time favorite spread at home and my personal favorite at the same time. I can’t imagine any person who wouldn’t like hazelnut spread. Its flavor is rich, very classy and once I have a sandwich with hazelnut filling, I just couldn’t stop eating. That’s why my kids are lucky because they share the same guilty pleasure with me and when I indulge them with sandwiches and pancakes with hazelnut spread, I also indulge myself. We are also blessed with generous aunts and in-laws who live abroad...
