Are you sick of buying new Power Bank as replacement to a Four-Months-old defective Power Bank? I believe you should worry no more as the trusted in Consumer Electronics, ASUS brings you the ASUS ZenPower Bank. Dubbed as "World's No.1 Credit Card Size, high capacity, 10050 mAh Power Bank", ASUS ZenPower Bankweights in just 215g and can "power up" any Smart Devices such as Android Phones and Tablet Devices.

Unboxed ASUS ZenPower Bank


So, How can a 10050 mAh Power Bank help us? First of all, what is mAh? Per whatis.com, A milliampere hour (mAh) is 1000th of an ampere hour ( Ah ). Both measures are commonly used to describe the energy charge that a battery will hold and how long a device will run before the battery needs recharging. With its 10050 mAh capacity and an output of 2.4A, you can charge any flagship Smartphones in just 1 to 2 Hours.

Yakitori Binchotan Opens Branch in Lightsite Parc Cebu

First off, Yakitori means "a Japanese dish of chicken pieces grilled on a skewer." [Wikipedia] Fortunately, A Restaurant has welcomed everybody to a Yakitori Haven here in Cebu. Yakitori Binchotan has opened its first restaurant located along Lightsite Parc AS Fortuna Street in Mandaue City

 

"We want to transport our guests to Sapporo and bring them as close as possible to the true Yakitori experience," said Francis Villaluz, Sr. Marketing Manager of Gerry's Group of Restaurants.

Gerry's Group has partnered with the original owners of Yakitori Binchotan - Chefs Yoshi Ishise, Tomio Hakada and Nori Suzuki for Yakitori Binchotan.

Chicken Teriyaki Salad

Tiger Roll

Chicken Shio and Tare


They are also responsible behind the success of noodle haven Ramen Sora, which is located beside Yakitori and Gerry's.

Yakitori Binchotan's recipes were passed on to Chef Nori by his grandfather who used to prepare them for his family during special occasions.

Chef Nori opened Yakitori Binchotan in Hokkaido, where he grew up, serving dishes using his grandfather's secret sauce, and grilled using Binchotan, a special kind of charcoal found only in Japan that brings out the taste of the skewered delight, usually Chicken.

Shiitake Mushroom with Ground Pork

Teba

"Binchotan packs so much heat and does not emit smoke, which allows the full flavor of the food to come out. The high heat from Binchotan helps to properly sear the meat keeping it juicy on the inside," says Villaluz.

Yakitori isn't as simple as putting meat or vegetable on a stick and grilling them. "There is so much discipline required in preparing this dish. The smell, the aroma of skewered dishes, and ultimately the taste makes all the difference," adds Chef Nori.

With its maiden branch Yakitori Binchotan is set to bring life to diners' tables with original dishes enjoyed in Hokkaido, the heart of Japan's culinary center.

It's time to quench your thirst with refreshing offerings from Starbucks Philippines. Starting July 28, Starbucks will bring in their latest products specifically on Beverages, Coffee and Food. In addition, Starbucks Philippines introduces "My Starbucks Rewards®" and luckily, Cebu Bloggers Society Bloggers were able to savour these sweet treats. Starbucks Lovers can fuel their adventure with SB's Coffee Blends and other Beverages until September 14, 2015 only. Here are some facts about these latest crazes.



BEVERAGES ( Tall – ₱ 165 Grande ₱ 175 Venti– ₱ 185 )


HONEYCOMB CRUNCH MOCHA FRAPPUCCINO® BLENDED BEVERAGE

Decadent Mocha Frappuccino® is layered with golden crunchy honeycomb, whipped cream and chocolaty drizzle to create a multi-textured & well-balanced cool beverage treat.



ORANGE HONEYCOMB CRUNCH CREAM FRAPPUCCINO® BLENDED BEVERAGE

This beverage combines smooth and creamy Frappuccino® together with citrusy and fragrant orange sauce made with real orange bits. This is then finished with whipped cream, crunchy honeycomb and a swirl of tangy orange drizzle.

COFFEE



STARBUCKS WILLOW BLEND™
The bright, crisp flavor and subtle complexity shine through beautifully to create a breezy, delicious and easy-to-drink cup.


STARBUCKS® KATI KATI BLEND
Kati Kati* blend displays a great example of the art of blending and roasting in action. The beans from East Africa produce extraordinary coffees that are great over ice – Kenya brings body and distinctive citrus forward flavors, whilst Ethiopia coffee softens the blend and adds more complexity in flavor and aroma. The roast is dark enough to bring the acidity, body and flavor into an invigorating balance between citrus and spice notes from Kenya and the subtle floral aromas and crisp acidity from Ethiopia. *Kati-Kati – Swahili for “between”



STARBUCKS RESERVE® KENYA KARATINA AA*
This wonderful coffee takes its name from both the town and the wet mill that processed the coffee for Starbucks. It is comprised of coffees representing the Barichu Farmers Cooperative. The farms are located in Nyeri, a region known for its high quality coffee and where the cherries mature slowly, which translates in the cup to produce complex flavors. Traditional fully washed coffees are sun-dried for 2-3 weeks to allow the flavors to intensify producing a bright citrusy acidity with savory umami notes that are complex and lingering. The flavors of the coffee can be enjoyed whether hot or iced.

*AA is a classification of coffee grown in Kenya. All Kenyan coffee is graded after it is milled. Grades are assigned based on the screen size of the bean, not the quality.

Available only in Starbucks Reserve® stores:
 Starbucks Tomas Morato, Quezon City
 Starbucks 8 Forbes Town, Bonifacio Global City
 Starbucks Keyland Centre, Makati City
 Starbucks Central Square, Bonifacio Global City
 Starbucks Signa Residences, Makati City
 Starbucks Sapphire Bloc, Pasig City

FOOD

MANGO FLOAT CAKE (₱ 140 (slice) ₱ 1,350 (whole) )
A light and moist sponge cake layered with chewy yet crispy meringue and mango creamy custard smothered with vanilla pistachio cream.



WHITE CHOCOLATE VERY BERRY COOKIE ( ₱70 )
A chewy cookie with white chocolate chunks, dried blueberries, cranberries, strawberries and walnuts.


BANANA CHOCOLATE FRITTER ( ₱ 60 )

Monkey's Belly Bistro Bar Opens Outlet Outside Singapore, Introduces in Cebu

Specializing on Filipino Dishes with a Singaporean Twist, Monkey's Belly Bistro Bar opened its door to Cebuanos last June 19, 2015. This Bistro Bar is located at the ground floor of Capitol Square Building, Escario, Cebu City. When asked why Monkey's Belly? Samuel Chaw, the Owner/Manager and Chef, confirmed that it's combination of his favorite Cebu's Lechon Belly and the mother company in Singapore, Monkey's Forehead Pte Ltd. Thus, the name Monkey's Belly Bistro Bar came up.



Now, check these featured Dishes and Drinks that we actually recommend to our online friends to try when you visit the Bar.



Peanut Butter Burger
It is definitely the one and only peanut butter burger available in Cebu. " Peanut butter is a personal favourite of mine and I believed that it can be eaten with Anything. I started working with the Patty, adjusting the favour profile of it to make sure that it suits the local taste bud. It took me a week to perfect the peanut butter sauce and this is definitely worth a try."



Golden Aburi Brocolli
This is FaceCebu.Net's Favorite. It makes use of the traditional Japanese method of Salmon Aburi, which involves torching of the Salmon. It gives the Brocolli a light smokinesss, which adds flavours to a simple Bricolli. For the sauce, Monkey's Belly Bistro Bar did its own balsamic dressing, with a touch of Red Sugar.



Spring Wings
Known as "Har Cheong Gai" in Singapore, it is deep fried with prawn paste and a secret recipe, which they did not share.




S'Mores Cocktail
S'mores is actually a contraction of a phase 'Some More'. It is a traditional nighttime campfire treat popular in the US and recently the Canada, consisting of a roasted marshmallow and a layer of chocolate sandwiched between two Graham cracker. S'mores Cocktail consists of waffle, marshmallow, chocolate ice cream/syrup and Graham Cracker.



Monkey's Special
This is Monkey's Belly Bistro Bar's Signature Drink - Chocolate and French Banana Puree blended into perfection. Served with Chocolated sticks, fried banana chips and more chocolate syrup

Monkey's Belly Bistro Bar is open from 5:00 PM - 2:00 AM, everyday from Monday to Sunday. You can also like their Facebook Page and send message for inquiries.

"Hi guys, I'm Mark Monta and this afternoon, I will be talking about Basics, Basics on Blogging and Social Media" I started that Speaking engagement with more or less Twenty-three Timex Employees. Talking in front of people is not a new thing to me but last Thursday was different. I felt like I drank a galloon of coffee as I felt a sea of anxiety deep inside. Well, maybe it's because I know them and they know me. Third Quarter of last year, I was invited to talk in the First Southern Leyte Tourism Seminar. There were local Personalities and Senator Bongbong Marcos attended that event but it was easy and I mean I did very well. But last Thursday was different. I'm not sure why.


My Topic during the Talk

Mark Monta, www.FaceCebu.Net Author

Participants of Knowledge Cafe Brew Of The Month : BLOG



Anyways, Thanks to Timex Philippines Toastmasters for preparing everything. It's not a big Seminar but sharing my knowledge and experiences to my Officemates is a big accomplishment to me. I divided the session into two topics, Blog and Social Media. Even though the event was entitled as "Knowledge Cafe Brew of the Month : Blog ", I took the initiative to at least introduce some basics of Social Media and its good benefits to Start-ups or Businesses. Timex participants are very active and the interaction was indeed fruitful. I learned something from their inquiries and most importantly, they gained details and information from my short talk.


And oh, before I forgot, I also featured some of my Timex Friends' Blogs. Check them out below....

In her video posted yesterday (September 29), it looks like Mr. Sayson was trying to ask Fernandez to pull out her stuff out of the street.

My dear Family, Relatives, Friends and Earthlings - this is a Hoax! It's been in Social Media again, Facebook, since the Year 2009 with other version from  Internet rumor site Snopes.com, then it came back in 2012 and again, January of this Year. And lately, it is rounding the Site again and again, Facebook denied this rumor in their mini-post last Monday which is also in relation to NASA's Mars Announcement.

Facebook posted "While there may be water on Mars, don't believe everything you read on the internet today. Facebook is free and it always will be. And the thing about copying and pasting a legal notice is just a hoax. Stay safe out there Earthlings!"

Looking back in the year 2012, we can remember that Facebook posted almost the same announcement in regards to this hoax.

"There is a rumor circulating that Facebook is making a change related to ownership of users' information or the content they post to the site. This is false. Anyone who uses Facebook owns and controls the content and information they post, as stated in our terms. They control how that content and information is shared. That is our policy, and it always has been. Click here to learn more - www.facebook.com/policies"

Here's the Facebook Hoax circulating the Social Media site.

Now it's official! It has been published in the media. Facebook has just released the entry price: $5.99 to keep the subscription of your status to be set to "private". If you paste this message on your page, it will be offered free (paste not share) if not tomorrow, all your posts can become public. Even the messages that have been deleted or the photos not allowed. After all, it does not cost anything for a simple copy and paste .Better safe than sorry is right. Channel 13 News was just talking about this change in Facebook's privacy policy. Better safe than sorry. As of September 28th 10:56 am Eastern standard time, I do not give Facebook or any entities associated with Facebook permission to use my pictures, information, or posts, both past and future. By this statement, I give notice to Facebook it is strictly forbidden to disclose, copy, distribute, or take any other action against me based on this profile and/or its contents.

NOTE: Facebook is now a public entity. All members must post a note like this. If you prefer, you can copy and paste this version. If you do not publish a statement atleast once it will be tactically allowing the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in the profile status updates. DO NOT SHARE. You MUST copy and paste

So, if you stil do not believe on Facebook's Posts/announcements, you can check the Terms of Service HERE. Please read thoroughly.

Choose A Safe Canyoneering In Badian Cebu

Lately, Canyoning or locally known as Canyoneering became a Tourist attraction in the beautiful towns of Alegria and Badian. In line with it's fame as an extreme "Water Activity", Local Operators or Guides took this opportunity without even considering the harm and safety of their Guests or Tourists. Last weekend, Twelve Cebu Bloggers Society Members were invited by iCanyoneering Cebu in partnership with Kawasan Nature park Multi-purpose Cooperative to experience and travel the beautiful Canyons of Alegria and Badian.


Twelve Cebu Bloggers Society Members during their mini-break






So, why and how to choose a safe Canyoneering? Let’s first discuss the “why?”. In Badian, there's no specific rule from the Local Government Unit that guides the operators, guests, or tourists in relation to this activity, Canyoneering. Even the standardization or regularization of Fees are not being well observed by the Operators. While others give the package as PHP 800-900, some asks for PHP 1,300-1,500. Not to mention, other Guides would take a number of Guests (10-15) without even asking for a signed waiver. According to iCanyoneering Cebu, a standard ratio of Guide to Guests is 1:5, thus if you are in a group of 10, there should be at least Two Guides that will accompany you in the activity. In addition, before the event, the Guests should be oriented with the activity’s safety precautions, what and what-not to Dos. During the event, one must always follow what your Operator or Guides request you to do. Do not complain, always follow, remember that they know the area or canyons better than you do.






Now, how to choose a safe Canyoneering? Well, I tell you, this is not a bias recommendation, as the FaceCebu Author, Mark Monta have already experienced Canyoneering twice and his first was good but we commend to contact below Operators for a better and Safe Canyoneering Experience.

Why Do We Offer Foods At The Altar During Kalag-Kalag?

Kalag-Kalag comes from the word "Kalag" that means Ghost. It is famously known and observed in Central Visayas, specifically in Cebu. In other part of the Country, this tradition is followed during All Souls' Day (November 2, after All Saints' Day - November 1) which Filipinos visit their departed loved ones in Cemetery. Even the Catholic Church always suggests to say prayer during these Solemn Days, we always tend to follow our Ancestors' traditions like offering Flowers and lighting of Candles outside our House or near the Doorstep and lighting at the Cemetery's Big Cross. In addition to this custom, Cebuanos prepare and offer Foods in the Altar and in Tombs. But why do we prepare foods and celebrate a little feast during Kalag-Kalag?

I've done research online and even came to the point on asking Lapu-Lapu City Tourism Consultant, Ka Bino Guerrero regarding this random question.

According to TheHolidaySpot.com, "The customs and traditions associated with All Soul's Day are various and differs from culture to culture. It is the common belief that the dead partake of the food in spirit which the living eat later. Therefore an altar is prepared at home with an offering of food upon it. The offerings (ofrendas) are beautifully arranged with flowers such as marigolds which are the traditional flower of the dead."


One of our traditions during All Souls Day is to light a candle in Cemetery's Big Cross. Photo Credit: Philstar.com

According to Ka Bino, "Philippine Catholicism is quite unique. Many of our pagan practices were not eradicated by the Spaniards. Offering Food as well as the Sinulog are all but vestiges of our animistic religion during the pre-colonial period. I can't say it was allowed by the church, but there were no conscious effort in stopping it. Thus it continues until these days"

According to belief, as we put lighted candles on our departed loveones' tombs the brighter the lights they can see as guide going to heaven. Photo Credit: Sunstar Cebu

So, if you have your idea why we offer or prepare foods in the Altar during Kalag-Kalag, please submit using comment box below. :)

Last October 20, 2015, Conde Nast Traveler(CNTraveler.com) released a list forReaders' Choice Awards 2015 In relation to their 28th Annual Survey, this year is participated by 128,000 travelers who submitted millions of ratings and tens of thousands of comments which helped create a list of favorites from all over the World which includes Top 20 Best Islands in the World, Best Cities in the World and 100 Best Hotels & Resorts in the World.

Luckily, Philippines has Three Entries in their Top 20 Best Islands in the World - Cebu in 19th, Boracay in 15th and Palawan in Number One Spot.


19. Cebu, Philippines | Overall Rating: 80.404

The most densely populated island in the Philippines, Cebu is famous for its beaches, on the mainland as well as around many of the surrounding islands. Not as wild as Phuket in Thailand, Cebu City is more personal, with plenty of up-and-coming restaurants and shopping.

A photo posted by Mark Monta (@mmonta) on
Pro tip: To get a true taste of island life, head off the grid on the Camotes Islands, two hours east of Cebu. Bring cash because there are no ATMs.

Getting there: Many Asian airlines have direct flights to Mactan Cebu International Airport from neighboring countries like Singapore. Note that the airport is located on a different island and it takes about 30 minutes by taxi to get to Cebu City.


15. Boracay, Philippines | Overall Rating: 80.856

This itty-bitty island (just under 4 square miles) in the Western Philippines is as close to the tropical idyll as you’ll find in Southeast Asia, with gentle coastlines and transporting sunsets. Add in a thriving nightlife scene, and you have one of the top tourist spots in the region.

A photo posted by Mark Monta (@mmonta) on
Pro tip: The aptly named White Beach is Boracay’s main draw, with powdery white sand and shallow azure water ideal for swimming and snorkeling.

Getting there: Fly from Manila to Caticlan in Malay; from there, pump boats ferry passengers to White Beach.



1. Palawan, Philippines | Overall Rating: 85.937

This small island—one of the Philippines’ 7,107—shot to the top of our list again this year with a recent claim to fame: It’s now home to one of the new seven natural wonders of the world, Puerto Princesa Subterranean River.

Pro tip: Palawan's natural wonder is one of the longest underground rivers in the world, traveling five miles through a subterranean cave system. Guided boat tours take visitors down a portion of the waterway, where karsts, natural rock formations created by dissolving limestone, loom in every direction.

Getting there: From Manila, it’s an hour-and-15-minute flight to Puerto Princesa, Palawan’s main airport. Alternately, ferries travel between Manila and the island several days a week (about 24 hours each way).

Here's the complete list of Conde Nast Traveler's Top 20 Best Islands in the world:

20. Hvar & Dalmatian Islands, Croatia
19. Cebu, Philippines
18. Sta. Lucia
17. Orkney Islands, Scotland
16. Maldives
15. Boracay, Philippines
14. Mykonos, Greece
13. St. John, USVI
12. British Virgin Islands
11. Cook Islands
10. Tasmania, Australia
9. Santorini, Greece
8. Bali, Indonesia
7. Vancouver Island, BC, Canada
6. Great Barrier Reef and Whitsunday Islands, Australia
5. Bermuda
4. Waiheke Island, New Zealand
3. Moorea, French Polynesia
2. Bora Bora, French Polynesia
1. Palawan, Philippines

In addition, Cebu got an entry for Conde Nast's 100 Best Hotels & Resorts in the World. With a score of 94.916, Shangri-La's Mactan Resort and Spa ( located in Lapu-Lapu City ), ranked 51 next to Cheval Blanc Randheli of Maldives. See the complete list HERE.
