Reyal: New Look, Same Sauce-Sarap, Sauce-Sulit Taste


When it comes to saucy and flavorful litson manok, there’s nothing like having Reyal on the dining table. Though unassuming in appearance, Reyal is something Filipino families love and look forward to for sauce-sulit, sauce-sarap litson manok. In two years’ time, it successfully captured the market’s appetite for roasted chicken that comes with a unique sauce.

In time for its second anniversary, Reyal is unveiling a new look for its brand, switching its bright yellow colors to a warm orange and changing its text logo to a much more striking cursive. The rebranding is definitely much saucy-er than ever, drawing attention to what they’re really known for — their signature litson manok sauce.

Starbucks backs coffee sustainability with Hacienda Alsacia

Most would hold their coffee mugs with much passion, enjoying the scent of the coffee granules melting in hot water. Some would even say they won’t trade that precious time for anything. Yet only a handful would reach an understanding that, in between sips and slurps, they would be enjoying the fruition of a three-to-five-year process.

This Christmas, Starbucks shares its coffee story with Filipinos. By bringing in store the Hacienda Alsacia—a prized coffee harvest from the company’s own farm in Costa Rica—the global coffee brand encourages its customers to appreciate their favorite handcrafted beverages from the seed and discover in its markings the work poured into it by farmers. 

The Hacienda Alsacia is sourced from the company’s first-ever farm in South America, acquired by Starbucks in 2013 as an investment to the coffee industry’s sustainability. In this 240-hectare lot, agronomy experts work alongside farmers to develop coffee varieties, improve yields, and overcome diseases in crops.

Christmas is here, joyous times are here and what better way to spend it than with family and friends over a bountiful feast.

Paskong Pinoy: Suggestions for a stress-free Noche Buena


Spend more time with your loved ones and spend less time in the kitchen, with Fresh Options’ one-step easy-to-prepare Pinoy dishes

What’s a Filipino occasion without tables laden with food? Every Filipino family gathering is centered around the dining table, with its array of dishes that have been cooked by our lolo or lola, tito or tita, and our own nanay or tatay, who spend hours in the kitchen to be able to serve their specialty dishes. The traditional Filipino Noche Buena, held on the eve of Christmas is one of the most anticipated family occasions precisely because of the home-cooked food that are a labor of love, and that fill our stomachs and warm our hearts.

Although we look forward to our family reunions, it often gets more hectic as Christmas Day draws near, what with having to shop for everyone on our gift list, set up all the Christmas décor, and make sure the home is ready to receive guests. However, for those with busy schedules, especially for many who are balancing a thriving career with managing their home, preparing a hearty Noche Buena spread may be challenging.

Some Noche Buena favorites that are usually served are:

Hokkaido Ramen Santouka opens at Ayala Malls Cloverleaf


Ramen lovers in the north of the Metro don’t need to travel far to enjoy Japanese culture in a bowl. They can now indulge in the authentic, passionately-cooked ramen recipe of Hokkaido Ramen Satouka as it opens its 12th branch in Ayala Malls Cloverleaf, Balintawak, Quezon City.

The opening will give locals a taste of Santouka’s family ramen recipe developed in 1988. Its ramen offerings are masterfully made with imported ingredients—from the noodles to the soup, and cooked for 20 hours daily to keep it fresh and healthier but delicious to the last drop.
