Register Now for Smart’s Amazing 25 Raffle Promo

Prepaid subscribers should take advantage of this because if you haven't seen Smart Communications announcements on TV, Print, Radio and Online, the you should grab your phones and do this now. Press *121# on your handset and follow the prompts, but look specifically for Smart's Amazing 25 Raffle Promo on the menu. Register there and you’ll get a chance to win a whopping 25 Million Pesos cash as their grand prize.

Carlo Andaya from Smart says “We have a good start for the year and we have launched Smart Amazing Promo last November. 25 years later we are here, everyone who subscribes to Smart, TNT and Sun will get the chance to win 25 Million Pesos. There are a lot of things you can do with that. People will also get bonuses by going to #121 for more instant wins. On February 25, everyone who joins can win, even those who have won things in December and January. Just got to #121 to register and earn raffle entries depending on the promo you buy. Postpaid subscribers get 100 entries per 1,000 pesos. Monthly draws include 25 smartphones, 2500 MVP reward credits, and the chance to win again in the Grand Draw on February. This is also tax free!”

Now make sure you do the one time registration first because without it you wouldn’t be included in the raffle. This is only for Smart, Sun, TNT subscribers and doesn’t include Smart Bro or services like it. It was designed mostly for Prepaid subscribers. If you also register to their prepaid promos, you would get more entries. Make sure you do that when your current one ends. Try the Giga Surf add ons, the Social Bundle 199, Chat Bundle 249, Non Stop 450 on Sun because those would get you even more entries. Aside from that, make sure you claim your monthly perks because I was able to do that on my Prepaid line too.

Thanks to the nice people from PLDT Smart who took time explaining to us the whole promo. I already registered, you should too!

Music, Food, Fun at Hard Rock Cafe Manila

Yes they’re back! With good reason because Manila can’t get enough of their very own Hard Rock Cafe. We’ve been in their Glorietta branch ages ago but that got caught on fire for some reason, this new venue is BIGGER, BETTER and a lot more FUN than what it used to. I think it’s the charm only these places can bring that appeals to more Filipinos. So amidst the evening traffic, we headed on to S Maison at the Mall of Asia complex in Pasay City.

On stage was a band I’ve never seen before but they were all singing like pros reminiscent of QUEEN, STYX, DEF LEPPARD to slow rock legends and our jaws just dropped.

They have a long list of cocktails but I suggest you start with the Blue Frog. Pretty good so you can let loose after a few minutes. Do not drink when you are the designated driver though!

They’ve got a mean Cheeseburger where the patty was just thick, char broiled perfectly so it was soft and smoky inside. The melted cheese and peppery rocket leaves was just so good to keep it interesting. You should come for the burgers alone, I’m not even joking.

The appetizers were a mix of american favorites, but this Asian Spring Roll felt like a meaty burrito. Fills you up with protein in no time.

The pasta was served piping hot, be careful of the hot plate because it’ll be really hot when it lands on your table. If you like fresh stuff, they have that done to a T.

How do they do it? By putting the open kitchen right beside you. Even if the place was packed, they maintained quality in everything we ordered. These people trained for crowds I’m sure! Kudos to the guy manning the grill because the burgers are TDF!

Now don’t go home without getting your own souvenir shirt, cap or anything that would remind you of this evening. Hard Rock Cafe just rocks and whether you want GOOD FOOD, ROCK MUSIC, or just a simple night with friends, you better do it in HARD ROCK CAFE MANILA. I am not even exaggerating. Drinks are 200-2K depending on what it is, food is around 195 (for appetizers) to about 1595 for the large protein plates. Pretty descent if you ask me.

Now lemme ask you, where will your next party be?

Derek, Piolo and Dingdong for Dunkin Donuts Delicious DD Bar

Two muscled hunks, all dressed up, laying you down in bed, approaching you with a tray full of your favorite sweet treats they call Delicious DD Bars from Dunkin Donuts. Ease in as they pick it up, touch your lips as you take it in these  lovely soft bars in flavors of Eclair, Tiramisu, Lady Finger, Matcha and Split Royale. 

Enough of that, because as hot as that sounds, it’s just Derek Ramsay and Piolo Pascual giving you the 5 newest flavors which Dunkin Donuts presented in an intimate dinner this evening at the posh Fairmont Hotel in Makati. They surprised us with a new commercial, and a new endorser. Yes they added Dingdong Dantes in the mix!

Dingdong Dantes says “I have always wanted to work with these guys, now that I’m here, thank you! When I went home and gave my daughter products from the shoot, they loved it. My favorite is the eclair, dark chocolate and bavarian. I seriously went on diet because I am going to be with these two! They welcomed me to their fold like family, they are like family and I felt that. I can’t wait to know them more.”

Piolo says “Off and on cam we just talked all day. We shared all our stories and we almost caused delay. My favorite is Tiramisu, but everything is good. If it’s about memorable commercials, it’s the new one where I was dancing with a coffee cup in my hand.”

Derek adds “I am biased with Boston Kreme and I think I can have 5 in one sitting. I have it almost everyday, I have it delivered on set but maintain an active lifestyle. They ask me personally how I am, it’s not just business, they are concerned with my well being and they build relationships with their ambassadors. It has always been like that, and I’ve been with them for 7 years.”

These awesome bars are also available in combos. You can get them for Php 299 in combinations of 5 DD Bars with 6 Classic Donuts, or 3 DD Bars, 2 Premium Donuts and 6 Classic Donuts. Maybe you should pay them a visit today! Maybe you’ll see the three of them and faint too!
