A Peek to the Amenities and Suites at Vivere Hotel Alabang [Part Two of the Staycation Series]

During my recent stay at Vivere Hotel in Alabang, I was able to take a peek of the hotel amenities as well as the other suites of the property. Since it was a weekend, Vivere Hotel is fully booked as there are some events happening but I was lucky that there were some rooms which haven't occupied yet at the time of my viewing.

Great hotel amenities is one of the vital things most of us consider when choosing a hotel. After all, it is always comforting to know that whatever you may need during your R&R will be well provided.

Being a five-star hotel, it is only expected that Vivere Hotel will do well in this league. Based on experience, I could say that they did not disappoint. I however is curious what does the other suites at Vivere Hotel may look like, and I am thankful that such request was granted.

Before you read on, you might want to check the first part of my Stay at Vivere Hotel Alabang blog post series which can be found here. 

A Stay at Vivere Hotel Alabang [Part One]

Vivere Hotel and Resorts Alabang is one of the oldest five star hotels in Alabang area that boasts of a grand 31-storey building which houses 200 elegant suites. Tagged as the gen of the Southern part of Metro Manila, it is said to be one of the best places to be when one is traveling for business or for recreational pursuits.

I was hosted by Vivere Hotel one weekend to check out what their property can offer. Their timely invite couldn't be more apt as I am currently scouting for best hotels in Manila for some business clients who will be flying in from the US and Zurich.

As with most of my Hotel Stay / Staycation Blog Feature, this one about Vivere Hotel in Alabang is a series of three blog posts (Read: Part One, Part Two, Part Three) Meanwhile, let us start with the first part - the room I have stayed in.

New and Improved Chicken McDo & McDo PH "Anong Chicken Ni Joy?" TVC

There are two things I am loving at McDonald's Philippines right now; first is the new and improved Chicken McDo, and second is McDo PH's "Anong Chicken Ni Joy?" TV Commercial. These two are currently making its presence known in different Social Media channels with the hashtag #chickenmcmcmcdo. 

Rightfully so, since we all know that McDonald's has always been considered as one of the popular food chains here in the country. And to up its game, McDonald's Philippines has once again creates something well worth to be the current talk of the town. 

Fowlbread BGC

The newly opened Fowlbread at BGC is the place you would want to visit if you got some hankering for manly chicken sandwich so good it can be a universe on its own.

And I am not talking about the old as time mayonnaise-laden shredded chicken meat sandwiched in between white bread we used to bring at school for snack hour, nope sir. This one is macho. This is Fowlbread's Chicken Sandwich.

And we cannot expect anything less knowing that this concept is under the umbrella of Tasteless Group - the same kickass peeps behind Hole in the Wall, Le Petit Souffle, and Hanamaruken. So there's that. 

Chelcie's Homemade Spreads: An All Natural, No Preservative Spreads

I was recently introduced to Chelcie's Homemade Spreads, an artisan all natural, no-preservative spreads perfect not just for breads bur for chips as well as for cooking. It also carries a line of tea infuse fruit jams that boasts of interesting flavors that set it apart from the usual.

While spreads in the market are already aplenty, entrepreneur and legit food enthusiast Eunice Uy believes that her recipes for her artisanal spread and fruit jams are something well worth to be put out there for people to enjoy.

I have met Eunice, which second name is Chelcie hence the name of her new business, during the time when I wrote about her restaurant Solace in Makati. I respect Eunice's take on food's flavor profile so I must say that I am confident with these products from the get-go.

Calle Preciousa Seafood Dampa Palutuan, Pasig City

Calle Preciousa Seafood Dampa Palutuan is a restaurant in Pasig City that prided itself with variety of fresh seafood and other dishes in a homey provincial atmosphere. Just like any Dampa style or Palutuan restaurants, diners may choose from Calle Preciousa's seafood selections they tagged as their very own "wet market" and have it cooked to their liking. 

Calle Preciousa is not really new in the business. They used to be called Sophia's Villa until it faced a revamped. This family owned business aims to stay true to its tradition of serving fresh food made from scratch. 

I visited Calle Preciousa recently for a quick lunch and to check out some of their offerings. There are several popular fastfood chains within the area but the ample and really impressive parking space of Calle Preciousa - which other restaurants in the vicinity lack was a clear indication that it is a good time to check this one out.

Seven Comfort Cuisine Manila Healthy Party Food Trays

I was recently introduced to SEVEN Comfort Cuisine, a new food business in Manila that offers food party trays perfect for potlucks, parties, and even for those days when one cannot muster the energy nor the means to cook. They take pride in having healthy and delicious food choices that can be delivered right at the comfort of your home or through an arranged pick up.

I had a simple get together with some friends where we spent an afternoon binge-watching American TV series recently and I figured it is the best time to try out offerings at Seven Comfort Cuisine. Yes, instead of slaving away in the kitchen, Seven Comfort Cuisine saved the day.

As a start-up food business, Seven Comfort Cuisine’s menu is still rather limited. But it they do have decent number of choices that ranges from pork, beef, chicken, seafood, pasta, vegies, and appetizers.
