Sunday Afternoon Blog: The new Kasagingan

It's been a while since a did a Sunday afternoon blog on Kasagingan. What makes this special is that I am writing  this blog at the new Kasagingan which now located beside the Mongolian Barbecue restaurant (just inside the Sarung Banggi compound). The place is much nicer ambience and much bigger than the previous location. Another good thing about the new location is that the compound has a much bigger parking space which is a plus unlike the previous location.

Aside from the new location, Kasagingan now serves Blended Ice Cream Drinks like the Banana Boat, Vanilla Dream and my daughter's favorite, Strawberries and Cream. My wife ordered "Banana Ispilit" which is basically a banana split served with whip cream and a cherry on top. I on the other hand ordered the classic Crema de Carda which is a serving of two scoops of Vanilla ice cream with some chocolate syrup and Jackfruit strips and two Toron sticks. 

If  you haven't been to Kasagingan as of late, try visiting their new location which still along F. Torres St. but inside the Sarung Banggi compound just beside the Mongolian barbecue restaurant.

First post for October 2010

It's the second "-ber" month and it's the month on which other countries celebrate the annual festivals and holidays like the Oktoberfest in Europe and the Halloween season in the United States.

Personally, October is the month to which two important people in my life will be celebrating this respective birthdays (actually one already happened on October 6 which is my daughter's 3rd birthday, the other is will be on the 13th which is my wife's birthday). Aside from the birthday celebrations, I have expanded some of my online works by adding more writing projects on Squidoo as well updating some of my blogs.

New blog/website: Urban Rivals Guide

It's been almost 3 months since I discovered Urban Rivals while playing the game on my iPod Touch. Since then I have been playing the game almost everyday as long as I have a wifi connection. With that said I have written several Squidoo lenses about the game and yesterday, I finally purchased the domain "urbanrivalsguide.com" and create my own game guide website/blog under that said domain using blogger.com as my content management system.

Kadayawan 2010 Festival Starts This week

It's August again and it's also the start of the Kadayawan Festival which is celebrated annually usually on the second week of August. For those who aren't aware, The term "Kadayawan" is derived from the Mandaya word “madayaw”, a warm and friendly greeting used to explain a thing that is valuable, superior, beautiful, good, or profitable.

Expect tourists from other parts of the world will grace this annual event. I'm still hoping the I can get my own DSLR camera so that I can join the coverage of some of the events like pictures here taken by miss Jojie Alcantara.

Friday the 13th Blog

Actually there's really no special reason for this blog post just because it the Friday the 13th, but to some who believe in the urban legend that this day is called the "unluckiest day" is (in humble opinion) an exaggeration because they put in mind that the 13th day that fall on a Friday is always unlucky.

I believe that things happen for a reason and we should not put our minds into this "dreaded" number that has hounded most people

Lunch at Coco's South Bistro

Another Sunday Afternoon blog for me and I would like to do a short review about our experience at Coco's South Bistro. My brother has been raving about the baby-back ribs on this place and my wife and I decided that we try it out. When we arrive at the place, it was not yet full as it still quite early (we went in around 11:30 AM). We ordered Onion Rings (for appetizers),  Baby Back Ribs, Chicken Salad with Caesar's Salad dressing, Corn-on-a-Cob (my daughter's favorite).

The food was great and I will really recommend the Baby Back Ribs as it is tender and very tasty. If you want to try it out Coco's South Bistro is located at Victoria Plaza compound, JP Laurel Avenue, Davao City (beside Metro Bank).

Update Twitter and Plurk via SMS

I have been having some problems with my internet connection here at home as of late so I wasn't able to update my Twitter and Plurk statuses online. Good thing a colleague of mine at work suggested that I use Gladycast. It's an online service on which you can update your Twitter and /or Plurk via SMS by associating your mobile number to your Twitter or Plurk account. And since then I never miss a tweet or plurk in a day. 

Live Writing Again

It’s been a while since I used Window Live Writer since most of the time there’s an internet connect, Yet as of this writing, the internet connection here at home is still intermittent for the past three days now. I don’t know why that everytime there’s a rain, the out ISP connection bugs out. *sigh*.

I would that by the time this blog post gets posted online, that our ISP (which I will is called “PLDT”) would finally stabilize their internet connection. 

Final Fantasy 8 Triple Triad Game on PC

Its been years since I finished playing Final Fantasy VIII during my early college years and since then, I got hooked on the the trading card mini-game called Triple Triad. Just recently I found a like on some gaming forum that we can play the same game of Triple Triad on our very own PC computer by going to the Triple Triad Gold site and download the game for free.

You can also play the game with your friends via your local network or with your friends online and experience the games like those times when your playing it on the Playstation.
