Gino's Burger: THE NOT-SO-GOOD on a GREAT BURGER



I know, we all used to love Gino's Burgers, but what you don't know about them might make you have second thoughts.

According to Sid, the man behind Gino's infamous burger sauce, he is now OUT from Gino's due to some unfortunate events.

Sid said, and i quote, "as of yesterday iam not at ginos no more they partner did some bad and there maken there own there now but in june iam going to open up the very first US diner here with new burgers an new sause at the top of Gmall called hollywood burgers its going to be nice we will have opend up in June." he further stated" sid is my name and its my family sause and somthing i started i got a partner who help invest once things started geting really good and money started to come in things started to change he first made all the emplyoes on me then he had hes girlfriend work there she made things worse i tryed talking to him about all the things an porblems to let him know i dont do things this way..and just this week he paid off one my cook to take my sause and they started to make there own i ask for my share of money and he did not give it to me so i walked out now there still maken burgers.......so thats what happend a very bad partner and thef so iam starten new at the top of Gmall.."







What happened to Sid is just sad, but predictable. It always happens when you're in a business relationship with people you barely know. But everything happens for a reason and every misfortune entails fortune.

Sid may have lost Gino's but in exchange is a bigger and better business venture, HOLLYWOOD BURGERS. I am looking forward to it, because I have been wanting to have a diner here in Davao that is reminiscent of the diners or joints we see in American movies.









Sid, I wish you the best in you new endeavor.

It's not coffee if it's not GREEN COFFEE

When Starbucks opened their very first branch here in Davao, people flocked their shop like mad dogs. The lines were crazy as hell, it almost feels like we're lining for a free drink, but we're not. But it didn't take long before the number slowly subsided, maybe because of the constraints of their store location and just basically the size. People could barely chill and talk with friends over a cup of coffee because when they look right or left, they'd see people staring blankly at them seemingly wanting to tell them "Please gulp that thing down and leave..We need seats too."

and then came Green Coffee.



Not to be considered a minor player in the Coffee Shop business industry, Green Coffee boasts itself as the FIRST (if not the only) to have an AIR-CONDITIONED Coffee Shop Garden..



Green Coffee is situated at Torres St., Davao City, and is brewing 24/7. Proving that Green Coffee is Davao’s pride when it comes to Coffee, just recently, Manila got a taste of GREEN COFFEE when they opened their FIRST Manila Branch, located at Tomas Morato, QC.

what makes GREEN COFFEE so different from other coffee shops brewing in the Philippines? It is it’s GENIUS idea of introducing a new addition to their menu ONE AT A TIME. it gives people something to look forward to.

Not too long ago, they introduced their new line of Fine Salt & Cheese concoctions.

It's so delicious it even had a celebrity raving about it! Talk about a celebrity sway :)

I went with my family and got ourselves some drinks. My dad kept on telling us how much he LOVES Green Coffee's Coffee Jelly Freezecinno and their Milk Tea w/ FSC.. He kept asking my mom when we'll be back. haha


My mom raved about how relaxing the place was and immediately texted her batchmates to spend their scheduled get-together in Green Coffee.





What I also love about GREEN COFFEE is how the people behind GC makes us feel like friends or even family. They never fail to tweet welcoming us to their humble shop and thanking us for spending time there.




With my busy schedule and with my time mostly dedicated on work, the next best thing other than my bed is being at Green Coffee. :)




Don't go on with life without trying out what GREEN COFFEE has to offer!! I'm telling you, IT IS A MUST. It is more than just Coffee, It is an EXPERIENCE. :)




Also, FOLLOW Green Coffee on twitter for more updates and promos.


Let's help them reach 1,000 followers and get drinks for only P1.00*!!! How great is that?! Piso Rates are not only for airlines :)

INDULGENCE WITHOUT THE GUILT

Anyone who knows me knows that I am such a freak when it comes to desserts. A meal would never be complete without a bite of my favorite chocolate bar or a scoop of ice cream. But, c'mon, we're not getting any younger and we should keep an eye on our health already. Good thing YOH FROZ delivers what we all need. A treat for our sweet tooth minus the guilt.

Forget about Selecta's MAGNUM. Yoh Froz's Yogurt Bars are the REAL DEAL!

Made with 98% fat-free yogurt, Yoh Froz's Yogurt Bars are without a doubt the answer to our prayers. A true food for our yearning sweets-loving soul. I CAN'T WAIT TO TRY THEIR GREEN TEA FROZ!!

My FAVORITES are their Signature Chocolate-coated FROZ Bars and their Strawberry Froz. There's something about YOGURT and STRAWBERRY that really makes me crave for more. it's light and creamy and I just can't stop myself from grabbing one more bar.





Yoh Froz has a lot more to offer, so make sure to include trying out Yoh Froz on your itinerary.






and oh, when you're there, don't forget to ask for a TREAT CARD. 1 Treat Sticker for every 150php single-receipt purchase made. Complete all 10 treat stickers and get a free cup of Froz. Enjoy!
