Genuine Promo?

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

FREE Sentro Food!

Have you been receiving an email about FREE laptop from Sony Ericsson if you send 8 or 20 people regarding their promotion and ensuring to furnish copy to Ms. X? Could it be true? Let me know ONCE you get your free laptop because my HB doesn’t believe such kind because it is incentivized SPAM.

Well, here’s a similar promo and hopefully, this is true! Check out what Sentro has to offer you!

Malunggay Ice Cream

El Favorito-11

Elfav Malunggay Ice Cream (Single -P60/ Double - P100)

Really tasted malunggay!  Suddenly, I felt engorged after eating the ice cream hahahaha :)  It’s so much fun now that malunggay is now being mixed with all sorts of food ~ noodles, food supplement for nursing moms, bread and pastry aside from the usual tinolang manok with malunggay leaves.

I love ElFav’s Bailey’s ice cream!  We weren’t able to take photos of the other ice cream we ordered because HB forgot!  Yep, he was as excited as the kids.  Too bad, our favorite Yakult flavor ice cream ran out of stock.  Hay.  We came all the way to Paranaque just for this!  Alright, this was one of the reason why HB wanted to go South!  Another trip to the South!  Any resto you would like to recommend for us to visit?  Let me know!

Machiavelli Chocolates

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

Machiavelli-1

I bought this box of chocolates a few days after my cousin P shared a hot item food news (at that time!).  I knew HB would be happy that I was the one who bought without him convincing me.  Well, once in a while, I do that :)

I should have bought a mix of small size and bigger size to create a nice design when photo is taken.  Again, I thought of HB…bigger size so we can all taste…but apparently, only the two of us ate piece by piece each day.  Until now, we still have a piece or two….we have forgotten all about it because of our busy schedule.

We got all available flavors…Grand Marnier, Guava Asia, Ivory Jack, Jasmine Blossom (which reminded me of the mahjong block), Lychee Noir, Purple Yam, Cashew Nut Praline, Thai Caramel, Yema De Manila, Mango Lait…

The winner is….we have yet to finish off the other two pieces…but actually, I have forgotten what choclates I liked that we have eaten…what I remember wassome of the frui-flavored chocolates lack the fruit taste that made us wonder what variant we were tasting…silly me, i didn’t take down notes of which flavor is which chocolates.  I was in a hurry to go home.

Machiavelli-2

Anyway, gift boxes can be arranged with an extra cost ranging from P35-P65.

Log unto Machiavelli Chocolatier for more variants coming up!
