BEA BINENE and LOUISE DELOS REYES Star in Gripping Thriller PASAHERO at the 5th SM Cinema SINE SINDAK

It's the 5th year of Sine Sindak, the horror film festival hosted by SM Cinemas. This year, they are holding it from October 30 to November 5, and from the looks of it, there's no stopping them from holding it to stimulate audiences to go back to theaters now. 

For starters, one of the entries called PASAHERO held their red carpet screening today at SM North The Block. It stars Bea Binene, Louise delos Reyes, Mark Anthony Fernandez, Katya Santos, Yumi Garcia, Andre Yllana, Dani Zee, LeAnn Johnson and Rafa Siguion Reyna.

It's been a while since I've last seen these two, and I think the last time I interviewed Bea was during a tax event a couple years back. They've gone through networks and management changes during those times and it was refreshing to see them again, not for anything, but working together. Bea told us they're very good friends and this opportunity to work together was something she was so happy about, thankful that Viva trusted them to do it 

We talked to them in the sidelines right before they walked on the red carpet, to talk about their characters and the experience of working with the Director.

The movie was more of a thriller rather than a full blown horror film. It has its moments, and you could laud the story behind each character except one. You'll learn more about how ordinary folks could end up helping other people, and remember to not turn your back on them when they need help. You'll see that be told multiple times in this movie.

Sine Sindak is an SM Cinema festival where it will be shown in their theaters exclusively. They also charge only Php 150 for this to make sure it is accessible for anyone who wants to watch in cinemas. If you opt to pay 300, you can watch all you want the other entries from the same festival. This is officially their 5th year, and I don't think they will stop anytime soon. Should you watch PASAHERO? Of course! If you're a fan of Louise and Bea, the more reason to do so.

Louise Delos Reyes Celebrates Birthday With Loving Fans

The lovely actress from GMA's stable just celebrated her nth birthday. Louise Delos Reyes, star of afternoon soap Magkaibang Mundo (Different Worlds) and lovely new ambassador of GTW by SM (congrats!) wanted this year to be a little different and chose to celebrate it with her closest fans. She's been so blessed this year and her previous shows rated quite well for pinoy audiences so they did it in a local coffee shop that pretty much followed Louise's aesthetics.

 

If you look at her Instagram account, she's done some real good work curating every post so it would look clean, effervescent and what she feels is her mood. She's also fond of music, we've seen her go to music festivals, she's got love for everything pretty like clothes and shoes. She also puts a lot of work on her personal blog www.loudelosreyes.com but also mentions she might not be updating as much because she's got a lot of work right now. She doesn't want it to be half hearted entries, which is totally understandable. 

Here's our short interview with Louise before we started the program.

Louise will be working on future projects but they are still in the pipeline. You can also expect more travels from her because she's really excited to do it every time she's not doing anything or between projects. She schedules it with her handler and it's a good thing, she's spending a lot of time with the people she loves, and loves her back.

Happy birthday Louise! Thank you for being so nice and down to earth as always!

Good Pizza, Pasta and Mean Wings at North Wing MNL

If you haven't been to Maginhawa, you're really missing a lot. During our short event located at this street in Quezon City, owners Louise De los Reyes, Arianne Bautista and their partners showed us around their restaurant called North Wing MNL. As you can tell, their specialty is chicken wings and I absolutely loved what I had during that time. 

Their interiors are simple, much like a small coffee shop with shabby chic tables and chairs. They've also got picnic tables, faux grass inside so it's like taking the outdoors indoors. I could tell they're probably getting this jazzed up like a tailgate before a football game in the US. As for the food, here are some of their best sellers!

This is North Wing's Innkeeper. It's got onions, mushroom, pepperoni and olives. It's best eaten while it's hot so right after they place it on your table, go ahead and indulge!

This one's their Margarita. It's simple, just cheese, basil and tomatoes. Effective, I also like the others but it wasn't served so that's what we'll probably have next time. It's good though, especially when it's hot!

Sweet Chili Chicken Wings and Hellfire - The sweet chili wings had something herby, probably parsley so it was different. I liked two of the flavors specifically and the hellfire is one of them. Another thing to note is THEY KNOW how to fry chicken. They're not amateurs in that department. The Hellfire isn't as spicy as I want to but you can always have them customize to your preference.

Garlic Cheddar and Barbecue Chicken Wings - My favorite is the Garlic Cheddar. They did it with flare and I could taste the intense garlic plus the lovely butter flavor when I bit off the chicken. That's a mark of a well seasoned wing. The other one would be fancied by kids as it's sweet and smoky. Honestly I thought they were just going to be mediocre, but they know how to cook Chicken Wings right. Mind you, I've tried tons of wing places in my lifetime and theirs is one of the best!

North Wing MNL is located at 95 Maginhawa Street, Teacher's Village in Quezon City. You can opt to call (02) 8992140 / 0916-7188866 / 0917-5920901 for events/reservations. Or you can always walk in as they're open from 11AM to 11PM (sometimes even later than that). They've got pizza, pasta and really mean Chicken Wings. Make sure you drop by this lovely place and who knows, Arianne and Louise might be there to also say hi!
