Museo ning Angeles Presents A Culinary Tour of Pampanga

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Mangan tana! In celebration of International Museum Day in Central Luzon, the Museo ning Angeles would like to invite foodies to a culinary tour of Pampanga on May 15-16, 2014. Invited speakers are Felice Prudente Sta. Maria, Chef Claude Tayag, Atching Lillian Borromeo and Francis Musni.

Museo ning Angeles promises a guided tour of the inner depths of Filipino cuisine with lecturers who not only talk about the food but actually live it, at the same time, experience Kapampangan cooking traditions and feast upon it.

This will be an interesting event to join as we will hear from the real foodies themselves. Right now, everyone wants to be a culinary chef because of the perception that it gives an added prestige not brought about by merely being a cook. Today, the taste of the food is not the only objective. Everything from presentation, color, texture and smell must be well-coordinated to achieve an appetizing dish. I would like to see if Pampanga cuisines are going with the flow or maintaining the well-loved traditions.

SandBox: The Newest Outdoor Getaway Right on Time for Summer

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Since I have a few tickets that will let me and my family enjoy a thrilling day at this unique new summer getaway that's now redefining outdoor fun, I wanted to share a preview of what it will be like as I read everything about the place so I would know what to expect.

I've been to Porac, Pampanga particularly at Poracay, but that place only offers facilities for swimming, zipline and canoe-riding. But from what I hear about SandBox, it seems to be offering some sort of extreme activities suitable for those who want a taste of adrenaline-pumping action.

SandBox, which officially opened just last April 12, 2014, can be found in the vast terrain of Porac, Pampanga located in the new Alviera township development of Ayala Land, Inc., in partnership with Leonio Land.

Visitors of any age will have memorable experiences at SandBox since it features an array of exciting attractions that pumps up visitors to get active and enjoy the great outdoors. From the fun activities amplified by the scale of the facilities to Porac's wide green plains, there's plenty of reasons to get excited.

In line with “Oplan Ligtas Biyahe: Kwaresma 2014,” Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) Secretary Joseph “Jun” Abaya will join President Benigno S. Aquino III in inspecting various air, land, and sea transport facilities in Metro Manila tomorrow, to ensure smooth and seamless operations during the Holy Week.

“As part of our duty to provide safe and convenient transportation to the public, the DOTC has instructed all transport agencies to take necessary measures to ensure security at our terminals and stations, quick response capability in cases of emergencies, and enhanced facilities and services to meet the needs of our travellers during this peak season,” said Abaya.

The transport department launched this year’s Holy Week Oplan Ligtas Biyahe as early as last week, on April 11. It will run until April 20, to cover the period when large volumes of people were anticipated to travel in and out of Metro Manila.
