Pizza Hut Unveils ULTIMATE Cheesy Bites Pizza

Pizza and I have a very harmonious relationship, it loves me, and I love it. It always brings me comfort on a bad day, it also makes me happy to spend time with family and friends because some of them are really good.

Well, Pizza Hut is not going to just stand there and watch us be sad because of the pandemic, as they just announced this week the emergence of the ULTIMATE CHEESY BITES PIZZA. It's a cheese lovers dream pizza made into reality. Imagine the crust with 24 individual bite sized poppers on the end and 4 cheese layers of Mozzarella, Cheddar, Cream Cheese and Parmesan. It also comes with a Marinara dip for those who want a little tangy flavor, and some really awesome packages if you're up for it. The Ultimate Cheesy Bites Pizza cost Php 429, they also have the Cheesy Bites Feast Set at Php 599. It's available on Grab Food and Food Panda, they also have an app and website if you wish to order that way too.

Here's my experience on video yesterday, check this out!

See what I mean? :) Go get one today!

 

Jamba Juice Holds Whirl’d Cup

I held my own frisbee when I was about 6 years old. I got so excited and giddy because the thing I wanted the most on photos was in my hand and I could finally play with it. I took it out on the streets and asked a few people but later got frustrated because none of my playmates knew how to do fun with it, just thrown them around and catch, that was about it.

These days I’m so glad to have seen it be taken and played seriously by celebrities, even athletes from different sports doing headway with tournaments, huge events, spinning, blending in different colors, much of what Jamba Juice is doing these past few years. They got their hand on Ultimate Frisbee in the Philippines. Life can be better blended up as Mark De Joya the Brand Development Director says “Having a positive energy and creating unique experiences for our customers had always been what the Jamba Juice brand stands for. We want things that are fun, inclusive and open, it’s why we are taking part in the growth of the Ultimate Frisbee community.”

The Jamba Juice Whirl’d Cup 2018 was so much fun, took men, women, kids of all ages - people from different professions into small skirmishes. They didn’t have to be professionals in this sport to join, noobs were welcomed with arms wide open and played under the sun.

Over 500 people participated in the festivities and if that doesn’t spark interest in the non contact sport, it’ll still be an important experience for these individuals who want to drink life up. They were also hydrated well during the two day tourney using healthy concoctions, real fruits, and the company looks forward to see more of these Ultimate activities in the future.

It’s was a blast! You may check out the video here and see the highlights of the event.

Jennylyn Mercado Unleashes ULTIMATE Album

I think it's about time!

We've waited long enough to get a glimpse of our favorite actress Jennylyn Mercado. She's back with her newest CD after 2 long years and she's done this under Ivory Records. She's been getting airplay already with the single "Hagdan" and she's set to also perform in Trinoma this Friday (September 23) with Silent Sanctuary 6PM. The songs are based from Jennylyn's life experiences and she's glad to have been able to work with Asia's goodlooking crooner Christian Bautista for the song "Suddenly". She also has a new show Superstar Duets that will premier on Saturday on GMA. 

Jennylyn says "It is important for me to hear the first few notes and feel that it's catchy, that's where I concentrate first before the lyrics. It gets the people interested, and Hagdan for me is very inspirational, when you've done everything and nobody believed you but you get it. I don't think I can dedicate songs to Dennis Trillo because the lineup of songs are pretty sad but hopeful. I don't have any favorites right now but I always sing Bulalakaw whenever I'm alone. Christian and I disn't really meet but when I heard the song, the arrangement and songs just sounded so nice. For me, it's important to take the melody first, it's different, the message would easily come across fast. I've done 6 albums and this one is a little different because it's upbeat on some instances. I'll be performing Hagdan on Superstar duets, the others will be sung in Trinoma. Music is number one, it's where I started and that's where I was really discovered. It feels good when you get a song done and you get really good words from strangers. I don't write songs, but I gave them directions especially on Bulalakaw and they made it for me. I also made changes on the cover, to make it water color, so it would be different and not just glamour. Suddenly was just given to me from a list and they suggested Christian and I was so excited when they mentioned his name. Whatever's given to me, I'm so lucky and I'm contented."

The album already made the number 1 spot on iTunes on it's first day of release. This will also be available at Deezer, Spinnr and other digital music stores. There are also other OPM tracks on the album like "Nakaw Tingin", "Huling Paalam", "Lampara", "Magkaibang Mundo" and "Bulalakaw" which she did with the band Silent Sanctuary.

Greenwich Ultimate Bandkada Search Season 2

Hey Greenwich fans! The lovely pizza company just recently concluded their Ultimate Bandkada Search Season 2. I was there with a few blogger friends to see who's gonna win in the second installment. I had my favorites, but of course we're not going to divulge that yet. We have to see them perform LIVE and on stage!

Last year's winner B-Boys also performed. They've been touring around the Philippines to promote themselves and the brand. They did good, but now it's time for 8 bands to fight it off on stage.

The ACE FORM, HAPPY ENDING, MUSICO, SHALOM, PLETHORA, RELENTLESS, ABCG, ALAB performed in Valkyrie superclub in BGC. The event was also hosted by Andre Paras and Yassi Pressman and the venue was flooded with pizza, pasta and desserts from of course, Greenwich!

It was judged by JB Music's Denise Manahan, Civ Fontanilla, rap artist Shehyee, Yumi Laxamana and Up Dharma Down's Armi Millare. 

My thoughts:

ACE FORM had good music, but the vocalist was kinda pitchy on some instances. It's like a college band playing pop songs. The song was good coz it has recall especially on the chorus.

HAPPY ENDING showed quite how experienced they are. Their song was a mix of alternative, a little reggae and pop. It's like they've been doing this for a long time.

MUSICO sounded young. They had an alternative pop vibe on their song, it was quite happy. Maybe it's something that started from friendship, like a small jam session just to have fun.

SHALOM sounded a little matured, like a local showband who's been doing this for years. Like if you're in a bar and got there for music, they would be in it. The song they did sounded like a swan song for an action packed anime series. You get that? Lol

PLETHORA was a little dated, they felt like Guns and Roses mixed with a male version of Aegis, perhaps if you combine em. Their version was polished but again, might not connect with the young crowd. In a cruise maybe, sorry.

RELENTLESS had a very distinguishing manner of singing their song, like a band from the 90's. Melody and arrangement was quite nice, but you really have to stand out in order to win this, I just hope they did enough to do it.

ABCG was fun, fresh, not like other bands that performed that night. They've really got a good chance winning this. 

ALAB also sounded young, did something that sounded good in a car, or when you're traveling. Maybe they can get third place, or maybe I'm wrong LOL. 

In the end, everybody got their completion awards, but was and their fresh song that won it! Congratulations 1st Runner Up ABCG 2nd Runner Up HAPPY ENDING, and champion PLETHORA! Turns out the band I didn't like the most won it, but hey music is an art form, whatever might have sound great to me might not be the same for them! :) 

Thank you for having us Greenwich! Til the next one!

Greenwich Pizza's Ultimate Bandkada Search

I used to be in a band way back in college and I've had so much fun during that time. We didn't have that much of a venue unless we joined local contests back then. We did pop, rock, alternative, and different genres in fact but ended up disbanding because we had to go on with our lives after college. That and because of a girl I think haha TMI.

Anyway,  I heard Greenwich Pizza is holding a search for the Ultimate Bandkada. If you are a band playing pop, rock, hip-hop or EDM, then you are the one they are looking for to win a management contract with Viva Artist Agency and a cash prize of Php 100,000. Sounds good? Well, it is good. All you got to do now is head on over to www.ultimatebandkada.com and sign up your band so you can get the chance to be the Ultimate Bandkada! Make sure you follow the mechanics and qualifications to a T so you wouldn't get disqualified. People can vote for their favorite band too from the months of May to July so your voice can definitely be heard. If you like their performance, your friends can definitely be a factor so you can win the coveted prize! All of the participants will also have to undergo an in house boot camp with some of the Philippines most talented artists so they can hone you to be the best among the bands in this country!

Auditions will run from March 11-21 so you've got only a few days to win this.

Ultimate Taste Test 2014 with San Miguel Lifestyle Brews

San Miguel Super Dry, Cerveza Negra and San Miguel Premium All Malt Beer

I've been able to cover the first and second Ultimate Taste Test and was kinda sad I didn't get to do the third one. The stars and the planets aligned this last weekend and got us to attend the greatest foodie event in Metro Manila, Rockwell's 4th Ultimate Taste Test 2014. It's where 50 of Manila's greatest home based food businesses and Power Plant's Restaurants converge. Participants become true blue food reviewers for a day to see who fares the best in this year's Ultimate Taste Test 2014. The hits will also be gladly paired with their favorite San Miguel Lifestyle Brews which I saw all over the venue that afternoon which includes even the desserts which I'll let you see in a bit. Let's start the ball rolling shall we?

Fisher Farms Gourmet Baked Rellenong Bangus

I liked the part where it's baked so it's not as oily as your regular Rellenong Bangus. The taste, it was good but it leaned more into the sour side which might be caused by uneven distribution of the ingredient on the slice that I got or, it might be just the way it is. I give credit to the thought of baking this thing rather than deep frying because it presents a more healthier alternative to an already healthy fish. We'll score this 3/5. 

Belly Bob's Boneless Lechon Belly de Cebu paired with San Miguel Super Dry Beer

Belly Bob's Boneless Lechon Belly

Seeing the rolls of Boneless Lechon Belly on the display counter just made my mouth water. I thought it was going to be a hit already because it is after all lechon. The spice was good, the taste of the meat was good, but when I did take a bite on it I felt it wasn't "all that" good. It was a little upset because I had high hopes for it judging from the way it looked. It was good that this is the Ultimate Taste Test so I was with other foodies on the venue and when I asked about it, they had nothing but good things to say about the lechon belly. I got worried, so I went back to the Belly Bob's station and tried to taste it again. That's when I found out that I was tasting something off because the thing they served me the first time was cold. The hot one I got tasted differently and was a whole lot better. The air conditioning in the venue might have been the culprit. This thing should have a warning sign on it that it's best when eaten hot otherwise, they'll have a problem on the ratings later on. I'm giving this 4/5 on the premise that it's hot, when it's cold it would be like a 2. The beer made my life better as it's my favorite beer in the world. San Miguel Super Dry was perfect with the savory lechon, even more if it's ice cold!
