THE BRIGHT SPOT

Food. Travel. Bargain finds. Random thoughts. A bright spot for sharing ideas and starting conversations!

I just joined ChurpChurp Philippines!

03.12.2013 by Leah //

I never thought I'll love social media as much as I do now.  Blogging has clearly opened me to the wonders and power of the following social media:  Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. There was a time that my facebook account was de-activated because I rarely check it.  But when I started The Bright Spot at Wordpress.com, I realized that I cannot just limit my followers to ...

Food Post: Ganso-Shabuway Japanese Style Hot Pot

03.10.2013 by Leah //

AJ and I belatedly celebrated Valentine's Day in this red-themed shabu-shabu restaurant at Rockwell Powerplant called Ganso-Shabuway.  The last time we had a shabu-shabu meal was last year in Cebu (to celebrate Liam's 2nd birthday) and it was in a Taiwanese-owned shabu-shabu restaurant.   It has lots of seafood but what I remember enjoying most were the thinly-sliced Angus beef ...

My Faith Pendant from Daphne Jewellery

03.07.2013 by Leah //

Good things come to those who wait.  That's what immediately came to mind when I saw this announcement at Daphne.ph's Facebook page last week: I've been forever in love with Daphne's faith charms, and about 4 years ago I casually inquired about them at the Accessory Lab in Rockwell, where these bespoke medallions are exclusively sold. Being custom-made ... READ MORE

Whoopie Pies from My Cookie Lab

03.05.2013 by Leah //

Whoopie Pies!  I was so happy to see this last Sunday at Rockwell Powerplant: Whoopie pies in different flavors - how cool is that?   All baked by My Cookie Lab.   We got a little help from the lady assistant manning the stall in picking out the flavors to try.  She recommended the following:  Red Velvet, Classic, Chocolate Mint and Wintermelon Milk ...

Food Post: Watami Japanese Casual Restaurant at the New Glorietta

03.04.2013 by Leah //

Have you been to the new Glorietta Mall? It's so nice to see it open again!  It's more spacious now and looks like a big hotel. We were exploring this new mall last January when we came across Watami,  a casual Japanese restaurant located just outside the mall,  beside Holiday Inn & Suites.   I've heard a lot about this Japanese restaurant which is said to be the town's ...

Addicted to Speculoos Cookie Butter!

03.03.2013 by Leah //

What a HAPPY breakfast we had today:  Pancakes with Sausage ordered from McDonald's + Speculoos Cookie Butter! Now that we've tasted the Speculoos Cookie Butter, we can totally understand why people obsess about it.   It's full of cookie goodness that once you start, you cannot stop!    We generously spread it over pancakes, crackers and even  pandesal!   And at the rate ...

Late Post: Mandaue Foam’s Decore Galore

03.02.2013 by Leah //

Note:  I'm supposed to post this the other day but forgot all about it!    I always look forward to the sale events of Mandaue Foam because the discounts are really huge.   It was through one of their sale events that AJ and I were able to buy our sofa, accent chairs and dining set for our apartment. Since I was in Cebu last week and my brother Dino and sis-in-law Juvvy,  ... READ MORE

Electrolux HUSH Happier at Home

03.01.2013 by Leah //

Hello, folks!  Don't you just love Fridays?  I spent the whole of today at Sta. Cruz, Laguna for work.  Left our apartment at 5 a.m. (because we are to leave for Laguna at 5:30 a.m.) and then traveled back to Manila at 6:30 p.m.  I got home at 9:00 p.m. On ordinary days this kind of travel would make me irritable because of the commuting and the traffic that I have to bear ...
