A Fruity Twist on a Beloved Dunkin' Classic

Living in the tropics means we have classic go-to fruits for every season. What’s even better is that we can enjoy them year-round, come rain or come shine. Looking for specialty fruits per region is also an exciting adventure, because the Philippines seems to have as many fruits as it does regions.

Year-round fruits are a constant delight, and in this area, the banana leads the pack. Whether you like the Lakatan, Saba, or Señorita, it is great as is ripe, or sugared with ice and milk. Legend has it that the first banana tree grew somewhere in Mindanao, and came from the heart of a young maiden who refused to marry someone she did not love.

Eastwood Levante : Q and A with Mr. RJ Ledesma

Here is a Q and A with Mr. RJ Ledesma, the Co-founder of the Mercato Centrale Group About Levante:

1. What makes the launch of Levante in Eastwood City significant for the Mercato Centrale Group?

Levante in Eastwood Citywalk 2 is our first collaboration with the Megaworld Lifestyle Malls group. We are very excited to work with the Megaworld group because they have always been supportive of original food concepts – from their selection of innovative and progressive restaurants to the gourmet weekend markets.  We feel that the Mercato Centrale experience will complement the dining experience of an Eastwood mallgoer.

Going beyond the afterburn

Fitness. It is not always about laboring with weights or cardio for hours. Rest and recovery are just as important as any other rigorous activity we invest our time on. And maybe it is about time to rethink your game plan and add recuperation to your list of fitness must-dos.

Recuperation. The state of recovering and replenishing the lost energy until it comes back to a considerable normal state. It’s not rocket science and is as natural as gaining weight after a long bout of overeating. Because it seems easy and natural, we often take it for granted. However, something as easy as recuperation can cause your plans of staying fit to go awry around if taken lightly. Philosophers, though they are no sportsmen, have it right. In everything, we must find balance. And the ratio of working out to recuperation is no exemption.

Workoutholics, we hear you. Nothing beats the adrenalin rush in every additional kilo lifted, every kilometer conquered, every pose perfected, and every smash, hit, or punch unleashed. And sweat? It can be addicting. Yes, you may get exhausted, but on top of that, it makes you feel invincible. The natural endorphins released during periods of strenous activity can make you feel superhuman. But if even Superman has kryptonite, then so do you.

Sleep is one of the body’s best ways to recuperate, allowing not only your body but also your mind and heart to relax and replenish its reserves, in time for another grueling day. A partner to sleep? Hydration. Because in our intense activities, we not only inflict unseen damage on our bodies, we also lose immeasurable amounts of fluids.

The good news is, there’s a drink especially formulated to replace the energy we lose while working out. Perfect for on-the-go folks, meaning almost everyone, who seems to work – and work out – round the clock. 100Plus is a mildly carbonated drink that has the ability to replenish lost body fluids and minerals during intense activities, making it the perfect afterburn and recovery partner.

So worry not, gym buffs and sports aficionados, not even time can stop you from doing what you want. What did we tell you, balance in everything, right?

Food Trip: SM City San Lazaro

This summer, its a good idea to get out of the hot weather and have a food trip at the nearest mall. One of the community malls in the area is SM City San Lazaro which houses hundreds of food choices for those adventurous or just want something different.
