Happy Holidays!

The annual Christmas Party of the company that has been planned since the start of December went underway last December 12 at the Maribago Bluewater, Mactan.

Why company decided to hold a Christmas party at the beach is beyond me but in all honesty, I can really see that everyone had fun. My point was that during the entire 2009 phase, we all have had parties at beaches – Costabella, Portofino, etc – and spending Christmas on the beach doesn’t make the last party of the year any different. Oh well. We did have fun, begrudgingly. Haha.

My friend Xenia Fabe graduated last October 10 at the University of San Carlos. She is now a Bachelor of Arts and Science Major in Sociology degree holder. X years would mean 9 years of being in school. There is a long story before that but she would kill me if I publish it.

Friends from Cagayan de Oro came – so happy to see them! There was a lunch at TGIFridays.

Please do try the tastiest lechon since CNT here in Cebu. Market Manila, the country’s Anthony Bourdain, is serving Cebu palates in Banilad Town Center, Cebu from 10am-1pm. Zubuchon is priced at P385/kilo. Anthony Bourdain, world reknowned chef, called it “the best of the best” among all roasted pigs he has tasted.

Read about Market Manila’s Zubuchon here. Photo taken from the web.

Zubuchon stall at Banilad Town Center.

Zubuchon is about doing things the old-fashioned way. They use good olive oil, prepare and accupuncture and cook the pig by hand with no mechanized systems at all. They cook the pigs on natural bamboo poles over charcoal from small scale manufacturers. Their pigs are carefully selected from folks who generally raise them in their backyards, not from large commercial piggeries. That’s the tedious part because they really have to drive at least an hour to get to their houses and the part where they have to go from one house to another and negotiate with the owners. MarketManila had to attest how tedious that was.

Zubuchon uses only the freshest and often home grown organic lemongrass (that’s tanglad for you!), green onions, siling labuyo or peppers, local sea salt and other herbs and spices. INDULGE.

After our Havaianas event at the Make Your Own Havaianas VIP and Media night, the group trooped to Parkmall to check out Anton’s restaurant, The Shabu Way. Located outside the mall, this oriental flavored treat serves shabu-shabu lovers from 10am-10pm.
