Yummy Eats 2014 Countdown: 33 days to go!!!

33 days to go before the yummiest event of the year! Yummy Eats is back with more food finds to satisfy our ever growing discriminating taste buds.

 

I just love it that every single concessionaire that is part of the event offers amazing (and I mean AMAZING) dishes as each concessionaire is carefully screened by Yummy’s editorial team. Yummy Eats is definitely not an event for all as several do not make the cut. So you are guaranteed to have happy tummies when you leave the venue.

Looking back, I always look forward to March as that’s the time when Yummy starts to screen the concessionaires. Different kinds of food fill the pantry for us to savor. And the best thing was… it was part of our job! We were actually working while enjoying those yummy dishes. Oh how I miss those days.

Anyway, I believe Yummy has been announcing some of the participants this year through its Facebook page so make sure you like Yummy magazine’s page for updates!

I am hoping my favorites Mochiko, Pepita’s Lechon, Crunchy Belly, and Pio’s Kitchen will join again!

I am so excited for the biggest foodie event of the year! See you all soon! :D

P.S. They are offering the tickets at really really (did I mention really?) affordable prices. Get your ticket at PHP250 if you buy through Yummy.ph (<--click now!!!). If you get 5 tickets, one is free as you just have to pay for PHP1,000. Now how sweet is that?

YUMMY EATS 2013 COUNTDOWN: 2 days to go!

This is the biggest Yummy Eats to date! With 56 concessionaires, a good mix of sweet, savory and local favorites, this is one event you definitely should not miss. 

If you are a foodie, you just have to be here. If you are on the look out for new flavors and tastes, you should be checking this link now (<--yes, click the word "link") for the list of concessionaires. If you have nothing to do, then you have no excuse to miss this event!

YUMMY EATS 2013 COUNTDOWN: 10 days to go!

I am so excited to taste again the yummy goodies of the concessionaires Yummy rounded up this year. Yummy favorites such as Mochiko, Simply Pie, Gold Leaf, Spring by Ha Yuan and more will be there to join the fun along with new great picks!

 With 10 days to go, let me share with you my top 10 reasons why you should be there too!

1. It's on a Saturday, meaning no work which also means "free" day.
2. There are lots of fun activities, cooking demos, and cook-offs to enjoy!
3. Some concessionaires will launch their newest offerings on Yummy Eats.
4. If you love Yummy magazine, this is your chance to complete your collection! Yes, the Yummy store will be there! Buy some limited edition merchandise too.
   
   
5. This event is a great way to bond with your family, friends, or even your crush!
6. It's just PHP200 to get in!
7. You might be lucky and spot some celebrities munching! Have your cameras ready!
8. The hard to find home bakers who sell yummy goodies are here! No need to search the internet and call them.
9. If you're a foodie, you just have to be here. The reaction, "Hmmm... never heard!" is unthinkable! So be ahead and boast to your friends that you are the group's I-know-all-the-yummy-dishes guy/gal.
10. There will be 56 concessionaires this year sampling their bestselling products. If this isn't enough... well, you will miss one amazing event. 

 

And guess what? Yummy Eats 2013 is now techie! You may buy your tickets online as early as today. Visit www.yummy.ph/yummyeats now! :)

Spotlight: I Saw Da Sign

No, it's not a typo. That's the title of the newest book released by Summit Media in partnership with Mang Juan. 

 

Down? Bored? Got an extra PHP150? Then grab a copy of the cute (literally as it's only 5" x 5" in size) book I Saw Da Sign, a compilation of 100 funny Pinoy signs.

Be amused with the quirky names of some stores or services, misspelled signs, and more.

Save the Date: Good Housekeeping Family Fun Run 2013

New Year’s Resolution #1: Get fit. I somehow checked it last January when I signed up for yoga. I also “tried” to avoid snacks and soda. But come my favorite month, the month of love (hey, it’s also because I’m a February celebrant), the motivation disappeared. This will change though soon as I can’t wait to join one fun event this coming April!

Cute dogs! Fun activities! Great food! Where can you find all in one venue? 

In Good Housekeeping Family Fun Run of course!

Happening this April 6, 2013 at the 34th St. corner 9th Ave., Bonifacio Global City, expect a lot of huggable dogs, sporty kids, and activities the whole family will enjoy. There will also be food concessionaires during the event worth trying. Kids will have a blast as this time, K-Zone and Total Girl (aside from Good Dog) are on board as well!

The Countdown is over: Yummy Eats happens... NOW!

Finally, the day has arrived! Let's all have a feast today at The Rockwell Tent!

With 50 concessionaires to choose from, Yummy Eats is the place to be for foodies! Aside from great food finds, there will be a series of cooking demos to help us aspiring (and frustrated) cooks to whip up delectable dishes!

I am personally excited to see my favorites Mochiko, The Fruit Garden, Pinkerton, and Pepita's Lechon.

Foodie Alert: Yummy Eats 2012

May is starting to become one of my favorite months. (No, I am not yet a mom and I am not expecting a baby anytime soon.) There just seem to be a lot of things happening on this month. First off, May starts with “no work” because of labor day. There are also other fun events such as fun runs, a Manila Amazing Race (c/o Couchsurfing) and of course, one super Yummy event.

It’s back! It really is back! Yummy Eats 2012 is about to happen in 26 days! This is definitely the start of my countdown.

For those who were not able to attend Yummy Eats last year, well, this is your chance! Yummy Eats is an eating and cooking fair that rounds up some of the best finds in Manila (and some even in nearby provinces)! Screened by the editorial team of Yummy magazine, you’ll surely find a new food favorite. I did last year. (Oh wait, I had favorites!) There will also be several cooking demos giving you new recipe ideas and a cook-off but this one will not be your usual kind. (Intriguing, right?)

A Yummy event this May 21, 2011 at the NBC Tent!
