Mandaue Business Month Press Conference
July 17, 2008
I mentioned in an earlier post that I got invited by Mr. Wilson Ng to attend the Mandaue Business Month press conference. The invitation was also open to other 15 bloggers but only a few responded because of some conflicts in schedule. Among those who attended the press conference are Aileen (http://sunchoke.net), Wil (http://misswilhelmina.com), Paul (http://cebudirectories.com), Nick (http://in-indie.org), Arnold (http://cebuheritage.com), and Rio (http://ngkhai.net/blog).
Present during the press conference are the people from the business sector, the media, and Hon. Gwen Garcia, the governor of the province of Cebu. The purpose of that press conference is to formally launch the upcoming 17th Visayas Business Area Business Conference and the Mandaue Business Month.

Barbeque at Larsian’s
May 27, 2008
The first week in Cebu City was very difficult on my part. I’m not used of eating carenderia food. While I was in Davao, I was spoiled with my Lola’s home-cooked meals and food from Davao’s best restaurants. I was not prepared in the sudden change of my lifestyle.
Among those things I miss about Davao are the numerous Inasal restaurants found in the downtown area. Mang Inasal, Penongs, and Banoks among others. Last night, we were able to come across Cebu’s barbeque haven. We didn’t realize that such place lies a few blocks away from our building.

Another fastfood abroad

Yet another fastfood chain that I’ve been to in Borneo. This shot was from a Jollibee branch in Gadong, Brunei. I mentioned before that the foods being sold in this Jollibee branch are very expensive, relative to those sold in the Philippines.
If you might be thinking that only Filipinos come to eat in this fast food, well you are wrong. Most of the people that were at the restaurant when I came are Brunei people. (It’s awkward to say Bruneian or Bruneese or Brunian. Hehehe.. I don’t know which term to address people from Brunei is more appropriate.) Some of the crews are Filipinos, even the manager too.
Some Jollibee restaurants here in Davao offer free wifi access. So i tried my luck on searching for a free hotspot. I noticed most of the available wifi hotspots near the area was similar to that of Globe’s globeWiz. Since I’m not interested in paying for my internet, I decided not to push my luck further.
If the food’s taste is in question, there’s not much difference as to what we have here in the Philippines. Unlike with KFC who remade their chicken recipe to suit their market, Jollibee maintained the original Pinoy taste of their menu.
Notice that the cola (that’s how Malays call Coca-Cola) has a different cup. They don’t use the plastic cup, instead, they use paper cups. The price, as usual, is more expensive.

Wow, sarap naman nyan.
Waaaa, cute ng paper cups. Sa KFC naman, yung totoong baso.
Masayang tripping: Pumunta ng KFC at magdinein. Ilabas ang kanilang magandang baso for collection. Meron na akong siyam (9), hahaha. Try nyo, masaya!
Buti pa sa Malaysia may Jollibee. Dito sa Singapore wala.
