Have a Break, Have a Kit Kat, Work Better #KitKatBreakMovement

(credits to the owner)

I think everyone agrees with me when I say that no one wants to work. And yet we have to. Some work for their jobs, some work for school like me. And when that work has a deadline you could just feel your head become full to bursting from all the pressure and stress. I know I have. Especially when you have to finish multiple things at once, like when the hell week of the semester strikes and the requirements keep piling up. I give myself a break during these situations. And sometimes just have a Kit Kat as the motto suggests. 

But what if that chocolatey and crunchy piece of heaven is not your ordinary chocolatey and crunchy piece of heaven? What if it had the power to unlock a skill that you want/need? I, for one, have an answer to that question. I want to unlock the skill of efficiency under pressure so I can stay focused on my work and make the most of it. And to help you visualize how it would happen, I have created a very professional and intellectual rage comic (irony intended). Enjoy. 

And there you have it. How about you? What skill would you want to unlock after a Kit Kat Break? Let me know in the comments! Arrivederci!

Ramen Crave!

Hi!

I've been watching some TV and I noticed that there's one food that's been hitting the spotlight - Ramen. Maybe because of the rainy season or maybe just because Ramen isn't your ordinary type of food that this dish gets so much hype these days.

So what is Ramen? For those who don't know, Ramen is a Japanese soup dish. It is basically wheat noodles served in a carefully simmered meat-based or fish-based broth, usually with soy sauce or miso for added flavor. Common toppings include meat slices, dried seaweed, egg, and green onions. Each kind of ramen has different flavors and toppings. 

I wanted to try one myself so when I passed by a ramen restaurant, I didn't let go of the opportunity. I dined in a ramen restaurant named Ramen Bar. Ramen Bar is located at The Hub, Greenfields District, Ortigas, Mandaluyong City but they have three other branches located on other parts of Metro Manila as well. 

Ramen Bar has a nice ambiance, the old Japanese ramen-ya (ramen bar) meets modern interior design style. 

Now for the ramen itself. I ordered the Shoyu Ramen. Its description on the menu says: "Soy infused Tonkotsu Ramen topped with tamago, naruto, negi and chasyu". I was actually with my mom so we ordered one and had it split. Even though we had it split, we still felt like we ordered solos, since my bowl was still brimming with ramen! The service was good and very quick. We waited for less than 10 minutes! The ramen was piping-hot when it was served.

Eat and Go: Deliciously Okay

I consider myself as a foodie, being chubby is an accurate proof. I love to try different foods and restaurants whenever I get the chance. Last Sunday, my mom and I ate at SM Megamall's Eat and Go. 

Seafood Salad, Fish Scallopini, and Chicken Saltimbocca

We were attracted by their promo for two persons. For only P399, you get two P195 priced main entrees, a salad of your choice, and two drinks. If you order all without the promo, you'll end up with a more than P500 bill. So that was surely a great promo. 

New Products from Regent!

New products from Regent include Hokaido Fish Crackers, Pineapple Pie, and Mochi

My mom had nothing to do these past few days so she tried to send an email to Regent. She told them that we have patronized their products for a long time (since I was at preschool) and thanked them for the delicious products they have made these past few years (how touching). XD

Regent was very thoughtful to have replied to her. They asked for our address and asked us if we wanted to try their new products. My mom quickly replied to Regent and after a few days, voila! We had our hands on some very nice products.
