BAYO's "Style Harvest : A Holiday Heritage" Collection Launch

Bayo Clothing Executives and Iza Calzado

I've always revered BAYO as a classy and sophisticated women's clothing brand here in the Philippines. They've done so much in the past couple of years and good ones at that, but they're stretching their hands once again for a new one called Style Harvest 2015: A Holiday Heritage Collection. They worked with the Tourism Office of San Fernando Pampanga and connected with artisans in that city to create the same lovely line of clothes with graphics inspired and adorned with the one and only Parol. If you've adored the Pampanga parols all throughout your Filipino life, you know it's part of culture and it has been passed on from generation to generation. Mixing fashion and the colorful stars that represent the star of Bethlehem was just something great and we saw that happen yesterday at the launch!

Bayo Style Harvest with Iza Calzado

What's heartwarming to know is that they're giving some of the proceeds to Virlanie Foundation that takes care of the education of street children. The little black dress hugged by huge colorful parol designs also looked quite nice, and doesn't look cheap. It stays classy just like any other BAYO outfit from their stores. A welcome sight also was Ms. Iza Calzado who embodies a great Filipina woman, with her work, her awards, her personal wins, she's but a good representation of what Bayo deems as a Style Harvest icon. Perhaps this is a series? I can't wait to see more of it soon!

JBL Digital Dreams Store Opens in SM North Edsa - Annex

I was able to see them close down some stores and open other ones in other malls in the city. This time, they're right smack in the busiest technology hub in Quezon City at SM North Edsa Annex's third floor. They're carrying products like JBL, Harman Kardon, AKG and others. From multi speaker systems, wireless ones, to portable audio, headphones, earphones and earplugs, they've got that all covered inside the store. They also have audio and video equipment so you can put up your theater nicely in your own homes. If you're skeptic, they also can get you inside JBL Experience rooms so you can test it out. They've got a mini theater ready for you to sit down, relax and experience in. It's one of the most effective ways to show you how quality audio systems can't be beat by cheap ones out there in the market.

JBL Store Opens in SM Annex by kumagcow

Some of the items you see on the video are on sale. I specifically like the JBL Portable Speakers which are also Splashproof. They've got one demoe'd inside the store complete with running water pouring onto the device. You can try and pair it up with your phone and it'll still sound so great you'd want to have your hands on it. You should pay a visit today or this Christmas season as some of the items they have are with huge discounts. The AKG headphones and Harman Kardon speakers were nice too. I haven't really tried them yet so maybe that's exactly what I'll do the next time I'd pay a visit on this branch at the 3rd floor of SM North Edsa Annex. They've amped up the place and it looks so good from where I'm seeing it. 

They not only look good, they sound good too. If you have inquiries, please email fritz.cruz@coms360.ph and he can hook you up with JBL Marketing people you could talk to. :)

Wingstop Outs New Asian Chicken Flavors!

It's my personal favorite chicken wing place and I love how they continue to innovate when it comes to flavors. Not only that, they've got the Asian twice fried chicken wings (I think) already on their menu. This is where they think East Meets Flavor and we tried them out a few days ago in their Glorietta 2 branch. I already love the existing 10 spicy and savory flavors, so this addition to the menu was a welcome sight. Now, they've come out with flavors that are only released in the Philippines catering to the Filipino palate and isn't found anywhere else but here!

The Honey Barbecue tasted really good. Aside from the extra crunchy exterior of the chicken, I think this one tasted like hickory but a tad sweeter since pinoys actually love that. Good news is that Wingstop has Chipotle Rice available now so if just eating wings isn't enough for you, go ahead and have 2 servings of rice so you can fill up!

The Spicy Soy in my books is the second hottest wing they have on the menu. If my hunch is correct, they've got the chicken covered in sweet dark soy then added the same pepper spice they use with the Atomic flavor which they originally have on the menu. It's like East Meets the HOT west, and it works!

For the garlic lovers, this one's called Honey Garlic. You still have that lovely sweet flavor but with an intense garlic kick. It reminded me of a sweet adobo without the tang. Quite nice actually.

This was voted best with the people I was dining with at that time. I think they liked it because it was light but still have that sweet salty soy flavor. This is after all called Korean Soy, which in my books tasted real good. Can't compare it with the popular brand though because they only serve wing parts. I bet this might give them (other Korean chicken brands) a run for their money.

Oh and if that ain't enough, Wingstop also has other things on the menu. The Loaded Nachos, The Loaded Fries, the fried Taro Chips, and my favorite Onion Rings. Make sure you eat them while it's hot! Everything in Wingstop of course is freshly cooked when you order. Now that you've got Asian Wings added, you've got more choices when you dine in a Wingstop branch near you.

By the way, I always frequent their branch in Glorietta 2, Greenhills, Trinoma. but they have other branches in Bonifacio Stop Over.
