Boracay Mandarin Island Hotel's Don Vito Ristorante Italiano and Mandarin Spa

Saturday, April 06, 2013


You guys pretty much know by now that I've been so happy the week when I was in Boracay. Part of the reason why was because I got the chance to stay in front of White Beach at famous Boracay Mandarin Island Hotel. Well, the fun never stops because as soon as morning broke out, we got to enjoy great food as part of our breakfast perks in the hotel courtesy of dreamy Don Vito Ristorante Italiano!


Situated at the left front side of Boracay Mandarin Island Hotel, it's the easiest place to be in to grab a cup of coffee or enjoy brunch for all the right reasons. Starting off with the basics, and finishing off with some of the best the island offers; Don Vito Ristorante Italiano just makes your morning a pleasurable one with their buffet! Ours came with the hotel stay but you can always shell out for what you're about to see. The choices alone in the morning can tell you what you'll have for lunch and dinner, but since they are a full pledged Italian restaurant you can order ala carte for other things that are not in the buffet. It's a free country! =)


Hearty porridge or Arroz Caldo still hot off the pot, plus add ons like toasted garlic, chives, soy sauce and local calamansi. It's my favorite, like a canvas where you choose how intense flavors would be.


I also had corn flakes with fresh Milk that morning. Pretty neat they offer alternatives like Cocoa Flakes if kids want more energy boost that they prolly need throughout the day :)


Cheese, cheese and cheese plus creamy butter with your favorite crusty bread and a cup of coffee, doesn't that sound like a good breakfast? =)


Oven roasted veggies. I had a couple of rounds of these and don't ask me why. It's just a good thing to have because its sweeter, a sprinkle of a little salt had me close my eyes. It was nice!

A Paradise Called Alta Vista De Boracay!

Thursday, April 04, 2013

Boracay has been a fun week for me and I got to see more than the usual White Beach when I got there. I was able to experience another hotel far away from where the action is for a little rest and recreation. Starting off with a spectacular view and rooms I didn't know existed in a place like Boracay. 

This is ALTA VISTA DE BORACAY!


I had my friends with me so we were a pretty rowdy group. Checking in on Alta Vista de Boracay was a cinch. Just present your documents and they'll have your room ready in a jiffy.


The reception area is also huge. It's where you can get free wifi and meet some strangers perhaps if you are into that.



And I went back at night to check out the place. It's very nice. The overall design of the place played more on the "Moderne Filipino Contemporary". It's a mix of both natural, wood, a mix of old French pub styles and materials.


They actually have around 15 of these structures which houses 500 rooms all in all. Most of their clientele are foreigners but I wish people notice that it's actually perfect for group stays. They have two types of rooms leased which are Deluxe (PhP 7,320.00 nett) and the Loft Suite (PhP 10,980.00). These room rates are inclusive of breakfasts for two, taxes and service charge. If you are keeping in more family members inside the room, they have extra person charge of  PhP 1,830.00 which is also inclusive of breakfast. These probably change with peak and non peak seasons so I suggest you contact them for reservations or other packages.

Discover Delicious Friendships with Greenwich Lasagna Supreme!

Monday, April 01, 2013

I was in Boracay the whole week and was steady. I was chilling, relaxing and enjoying fruit shakes of all kinds and thinking about the days I've been depriving my self of all the good things I should have eaten the past few days. Then my Sister called me and told me one of the nicest things that appeared in my doorstep. 

It was a picnic basket! Complete with a bouquet of flowers named to me. I immediately asked who sent it and out came this gorgeous surprise. It was a memento, a thing to remember and discover delicious friendship because yes... it is from the good people from GREENWICH!

I immediately asked my sister to see what was inside because I was going to stay a whole week in Boracy. It made me miss Manila so badly and when she muttered up and said the word LASAGNA. Like clockwork I became so sad to see why am I in Boracay when all I wanted was in this single picnic basket in Manila. (-_-)" sigh!


What made it even worse to think about at that time was because it wasn't just plain lasagna. It was more than that, a thing of humongous proportions and the aptly call it LASAGNA SUPREME! I almost cried at the sight of it.


I cringed every time my sister had to tell me another box is gone. It was being eaten by folks at home. The question was.. will I ever get to taste it too? :(

But no.. I wasn't able to see any piece of it.. it was gone.. all gone.. (-_-)" Hayyy...


Good thing the Greenwich Pasta endorsers Solenn, Anne and Kelly gave me news that there's best tasting pasta that's got thicker noodles, chunkier meat sauce, three types of cheese and white sauce that's served with Garlic Stix and available at PhP 79.00 for the snack size and PhP 99.00 for the full size! Now I can just go to any Greenwich store and order one for my self even if I didn't get to taste the one they sent me at home ^______________^ <<< see my wide smile now? 

Thank you so much to the good people at Greenwich, I'll be having my Lasagna Supreme for dinner and get a couple of my favorite Glazed Chicken too! =)

So make sure you head on their stores for the best Pizza, Pasta and Chicken that only Greenwich can bring to your homes! :D

Queen Of Disco Gloria Gaynor Live In Manila!

snail


The one and only Queen of Disco is going to Manila and she'll be treating you to a more intimate night of great music at NBC Tent this coming April 5, 2013 at the Global City in Taguig.

Watch as she takes you back on the dance floor once again singing her hits like "I will Survive", "Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” and “I Am What I Am". Who knows maybe Marice Soriano would pop up doing a dance number on that one haha (Oooh yeah I remember!). Plus, there will be a lot more other songs from her albums that you will surely enjoy!

She will also be doing a second one on April 6 at the AUF Sports and Cultural Center in Angeles City Pampanga. It's going to be a huge 70's party so if you prefer to dress up for the occasion it would be great! I have always been a fan of hers since high school. I remember dancing to her tunes during ballroom practices back then. Her songs were just so amazing, I would love to see her in the flesh!

I hope someone hears me out there! :)

This is Produced by people from ATG Entertainment Productions so you know you're getting only the best!

UPDATE as of 4/3/2013

SHOW IS CANCELLED!
