Another pampering day at KitcheNails!

Our feet is considered one of the hardworking part of our body as it carries our whole weight all day. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most neglected part. Once in a while it is best we pay attention to our footsies and give them a day off.


KitcheNails is one of my favorite salon for a hand and feet pampering session. As you walk inside their store, you'll get a whiff of sweetness which instantly boosts your mood. It's as if you walked in a candy shop with all the sweet treats waiting for you.

Zomato invited me to 121 Resto Bar and Grill for their first ever Zomato Quiz Night. I've been to other quiz nights before and I must say it was one fun activity. So when I received the invite, I was stoked and immediately said yes.

121 Resto Bar and Grill is known for their "kanta rooms" or rooms where you can sing with friends while enjoying good food. They currently have 5 braches and their newest branch is in the newly renovated Bonifacio Stopover. The BGC branch is a bit small and compact. They have 2 kanta rooms, a common area inside for dining and an al fresco area. 121 Resto Bar and Grill is not a KTV place, but a bar that serves food and drinks. They have themed nights as well in different branches like poetry night, acoustic nights, open mic and of course quiz nights.

121 Retso Bar and Grill warmly welcomed us foodies from Zomato for a night of fun and games. I think there were more than 20 foodies who came and participated in the quiz night. Here are some of the dishes we munched on to get our brains pumping for the quiz night:

Filipino cuisine is one that is closest to my heart. Despite the diverse selection of different cuisines in the Metro, I will always say yes to it on any occasion. A lot of restaurants have opened up, introducing different regional Filipino cuisines. One of those is Naimas Taste of Home Makati.


Naimas Makati is a homey retaurant located at the busy streets of Amorsolo. It is tucked between  those corporate Makati buildings. As you come in, you'll get a warm ambiance. Naimas offers mostly Ilokano cuisine but there are also other Filipino favorites. My heart skipped a beat because Ilokano dishes are truly amazing (BAGNEEET!!)



Luckily, I have been to Vigan (check out my post here) and have tasted authentic Ilokano dishes. Aside from the ever fan favorite Bagnet, there are also intersting Ilokano dishes to try like Sinanglao, Pakbet, Igado, etc..



Team Aldous visited Naimas one afternoon weekend for some lip smacking food adventure. Here are some of the dishes we tried that afternoon:

If you've read my Saladbox Holiday Box post, you'll see that I got one ticket to Saladbox X Benefit Makeup workshop. I was excited to attend because I now it'll be the bomb (coz it's Benefit!). I reserved a slot last February at Benefit Greenbelt. But then there were some changes so the available slot I got was the one at Benefit BGC.


It was a fun workshop because it is all about brows! Remember how we all went through that phase where we get so frustrated because our eyebrows were not on fleek? I did and I just lately discovered that groomed brows definitely makes a difference to your overall look.
