Carmina says Bebang’s halo-halo is summer in a spoon — but is it the real deal or just pretty colors in a cup?

Since last year, Mom Violy and Carmina had been wanting to try the much-talked-about  Bebang's Halo-Halo , but even when we passed by, the timing was never right. Mom Violy kept saying she’d wait until a branch opened closer to us. Then Becky told Carmina there was one along her commute route to work. The best part was that the Tomas Morato branch in Quezon City had just opened. When we arrived at CTTM Square , we found plenty of restaurants on the second floor. While checking the menu, we let the customers behind us order first. Mom Violy asked them for recommendations, and they suggested the Presidential for first timers. Unlike other places, Bebang’s Halo-Halo doesn’t have size options—everything comes in a standard size, making ordering easier. Seniors and PWDs get a discount per order, and you’re given something that lights up when your halo-halo is ready for pickup. Service was quick, so the wait wasn’t long at all. Each order comes in its own green plastic bag with a table...

Bacon Cheddar Flavored Cheese Curls

I have a family member who loves eating chips. Their favorite food is bacon and cheese so why not looks for a chip that has both ingredients. I did my food ventures by shopping at Online Shopping in Shopee Philippines one way to reach my goal being Platinum due to our pandemic. For the bacon and cheese lover you can eat a chip that has both flavors inside by grabbing a bag of Herr's Bacon Cheddar Flavored Cheese Curls it taste exactly from the description on the package. I've tried other flavors and my goal is to be able to try each one to see which ones I like the best. A place you live in the Philippines and the first home was in the United States no matter I am living the opposite world. I can still be able to find food I've never discovered by shopping online has given me an advantage. The reason why is because there are a lot of sellers who have connections to purchase items from different parts of the United States. There are some countries I haven't been able to ...

Herr's Carolina Reaper Flavored Cheese Curls

Do you know what the spiciest chip that you can purchase is? I have a friend who always informs me that he was able to get Carolina Reaper from his friends. Out of curiosity I wanted to try and see how it really tastes. Due I cannot get the real version in the Philippines I figure why I can get the chip version. I had opened the bag and took a bite of one piece warning they are the spiciest chip. It didn't stop me eating another piece of course I needed something to drink after finishing two pieces. I was only able to eat three pieces my face was sweating. You wonder what would have happen to me if I was eating the real Carolina Reaper. I had showed my friend the Herr's Carolina Reaper Flavored Cheese Curls I had purchased. My friend said hey where you bought that I also want to try it. The funny part my friend lives in the States had no clue those cheese curls had existed only found through Carmina. I have realize no matter you eat a certain food and live in that area sometime...

Little Urban Farmer

Recently I made a purchase for my mom to buy a mango tree to plant in her terrace. My mom asked me to purchase a gardening pot, soil and gardening set last week it had all arrived. What my mom didn't know the mango tree will not fit inside the gardening pot. My mom was thinking of placing her mango tree inside a plastic bucket where we normally store water inside.  My mom wanted me to come over her home to drill some holes for the water to come out. My mom was thinking hard how it would be possible for her mango tree fit inside something too small not having enough space for the roots to grow out in the future. My mom didn't want a ceramic garden pot she felt it would be too heavy for her to carry. My mom was excited the measurement was not accurate. I had to think what to do when no garden pot was able for the size of the mango tree. I had searched in Shopee and Lazada Online Shopping. Somehow someone lead me to the direction to look at Facebook Marketplace where I h...
