Kitsch Cupcakes' Mega Treat Cupcake Sale at BurJuman

The cupcake monster was out on the loose again! I found myself rushing to BurJuman Centre yesterday evening for The Mega Treat Cupcake Sale, in line with the mall's annual food fest. The cupcake sale was hosted by Kitsch, an award-winning cupcake shop in the UAE. 

There were over 500 scrumptious Kitsch cupcakes of different flavors on sale. Mini cupcakes were only at 5 AED each and regular ones for 10 AED each. Aside from the sale, Kitsch also organized a cupcake workshop for the little ones. Kids unleashed their creativity as they decorate cupcakes with colorful icing and candy sprinkles! 

Belieber for a Night

Today, I'm taking a break from the travel series. Ed and I are back in Dubai for more than a month now, so this time I'll be sharing something fresh! Flashpack series will resume next week. :)

Believe it or not, I was at Justin Bieber's concert two weekends back! Yes, an adult turning 31 this year still at a teeny-bopper music event. Hahah! I'm not a huge fan, I actually hate his music during his "Baby" days. I learned to appreciate Justin Bieber when he got older as his music style evolved from annoying dance tunes to cool pop and R&B.

Hotel Alejandro: A Hotel with a History

Hotel Alejandro in Tacloban is not just another hotel! It is a museum, an ancestral home and a hotel rolled into one. The hotel's facade looks very interesting. One can easily tell that there's a great story behind the beautiful white mansion. It was constructed way back 1932 not as a hotel, but a home to Dr. and Mrs. Alejandro Montejo. The residence served as a venue for gatherings of military officers. During World War II, the Montejo's open their doors to war evacuees. It was a home away from home to families from Cebu and Negros.

Cebu Pacific Contest: 100 Lucky Juans

It's my 5th year as an Overseas Filipino Worker in Dubai. Time flies really fast! It has been 5 years of Expat life and whirlwind of emotions! I feel so blessed to be here, yet homesickness is inevitable. I have missed four Christmas and a lot of birthdays, even my parents' 60th! I would have been home on some of those occasions if airfares are cheaper. I was constantly praying, waiting and hoping for promotional fares. This year, my prayer was answered! Cebu Pacific, the leading airline in the Philippines, will have direct flights to Dubai starting October 7, 2013!!!

Italian Lunch at Guiseppe's

I just realized that I've been blogging about pizza restaurants a lot. I even got a comment "Pizza, again?!" on my recent blog post. Hahah! :) I love pizza ever since, but the addiction got worse when I met Ed. He is a true blue fan of everything Italian! So, I think we've been "pizza restaurant hopping" for almost 6 years already, from the Philippines to United Arab Emirates! :)

During our 8-day flashpack trip, we have satisfied our authentic Italian pizza cravings at Giuseppe's in Tacloban. Guiseppe's is an Italian-Filipino restaurant, owned and managed by an Italian Chef. The restaurant's exterior looks very charming, it actually stands out from the rest of the establishments at the town's center.
