Never Surrender

At first I thought having UFC fighters in a movie would definitely make this action movie worth watching. I couldn't be more wrong. Hector Echavarria will definitely not get any Hollywood projects in the future. He's a bad director, a worse writer and an even worse actor. The only thing I like about the movie was the actresses bodies. And contrary to what I thought, it can't make up for how bad a movie is. The acting is bad and is caused by terrible casting. The plot is as simple as a porno. The movie is actually a full-length soft porn.

I give this movie negative 5 stars.

Pacquiao vs Hatton

A Filipino beating up a white man. Priceless.

In Burges

In Burges is a 2008 film starring Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson and Ralph Fiennes. It's about 2 hitmen who were sent by their employer to Burges, Belgium. Complications start when 1 of them is tasked to take out the other.

In Burges must be hands-down the most boring movie I've seen ever. The only redeeming factor in the whole movie and the only reason why I finished it was the inclusion of Clemence Poesy in the cast as Colin Farrell's love interest. Not that she's an exceptional actress, she just looks really hot.

Cho Nam Panciteria

Cho Nam has been in Quiapo for more than 5 decades and for good reason. They have good rice toppings and is reasonably priced. The food is not that great for you to travel all the way to Quiapo just to eat there but it's a good choice if you're already in the area. It's a welcome change to all the fastfood places around the metro.

But I have some complaints about the place. I feel like the waiters do not really want to serve food and they have this constant smirk on their faces like a customer eating there is a distraction. And the place isn't very clean. The water served to me had 2 big mosquitos in them and the waiter didn't even bother looking at the glass when he served it.

Nonetheless, I'll probably eat there again if happen to be in Quiapo but I'm really not looking forward to it.

My Spa Home Massage Service

I tried My Spa's ventosa service. It's the one where they place a cup which sucks the lamig from your body. It hurts like hell while the cups were there but after the whole session, I feel light. It's like I can move my whole body without hurting myself. It only costs P550 and it includes a whole body massage.

My Spa can be contacted through 9336772. They're based in the Marikina area but service anywhere in Metro Manila.

I highly recommend this cheaper alternative to going to the spa.

Berroni's

Along Henry Javier st. in Pasig City stands a quaint Italian restaurant, Berroni's. They promote their pizza and pasta. 

Sadly, I wasn't able to try them because, true-blooded Filipino that I am, I couldn't live without rice. I tried their beef salpicao. I imagine they have great Italian food because their salpicao could've been improved. (Note to self, if you're eating in an Italian restaurant, order Italian instead of Spanish.)

It's not a place for everyday eating. I can see Berroni's as a place for a small get-together or a date.

Purefoods Sisig


Purefoods Sisig must be made for the bachelor in mind. All one needs to do is throw it in to a pan and add some chopped onions and voila! I can finish a whole can with 3 cups of rice and I'm full for hours.

Purefoods Sisig is not like the other processed sisig out in the market. It's not filled with liver which I hate. It has enough meat in it. I would definitely recommend this product for everyone.
