Group Bites: Mangan Tayon

I needed an excuse to try Mangan Tayon's chicken barbecue and sisig. So, I told my co-workers that lunch was on me because we had a very productive week.

 This is what we had delivered:

  • Sisig - 2 orders x P110/order                         = P220.00
  • Chicken Barbecue - 5 orders x P60/order      = P300.00
  • Pork Barbecue - 60 sticks x P5/stick             = P300.00
Our Grand Total? P820.00. And, it was all worth it. I can't comment much on the taste of the chicken barbecue and sisig. My co-workers consumed most of it. They asked for the name and location of the barbecue house who prepared our delicious lunch. Of course, this was after they finished the chicken order and the sisig. I mean hey, they only took notice of the boneless lechon after consuming all the chicken barbecue and sisig. It must be a good sign.

As for the pork barbecue, you can read my opinion in my previous entry. Budget Bites: Mangan Tayon

House and Lot For Singles on a Budget: BellaVita Davao Subdivision

Subdivisions have sprouted like mushrooms all over Davao City. However, being single with a low paying job could be a hindrance in acquiring property. I mean, how could one own H&L with a salary of only Php 9,000.00 a month? What most people can afford with that is a room for rent. It's even harder if you are on your own - no support from the family, and no working spouse.

Bellavita Davao Subdivision can actually make it easier to own a small property. It's an Eco-socialized housing project developed by Ayala's Construction Arm - MDC Build Plus which allows people with salaries lower than Php 15,000/month to own a house and lot.

Budget Bites: Mangan Tayon

MANGAN TAYON sa Obrero! Mangan Tayon is an Ilokano phrase which means Let's Eat. And now, this is the name of a new small eatery in Burgos St. Obrero. It's a small barbecue place of around 5 to 6 tables but don't let its smallness fool you. Their barbecue is indeed very rich in flavor.

Rubina and I went to this place on a cold and rainy night. Mind you, I wasn't really feeling well that night but eating here made me feel better. We ordered around 4 sticks of pork barbecue, 4 sticks of isaw and a serving of their panga and overall I think we spent just around P 250. (I forgot to take not of the price of rice)

More Slides. Smaller Margins

I'm fond of bringing hard copies of slides during presentations. It allows me to (1) go through the different slides without distracting the audience from the slide on the projector, and (2) scribble notes just so that I don't miss any information during the presentation.
BUT, it can be so annoying when you see pages that have so much white space and small slides in it. Annoying and frustrating. And during one of those frustrating moments, I did a little playing around and came up with tricks of my own to minimize these white spaces.
