World-Famous Domino’s Pizza opens multiple branches in Cebu

When we hear the word “pizza,” many Cebuanos come to think of a couple of pizza stores that have long established their reputation as high-quality pizzerias known for their delicious pizzas.

There is one pizzeria that is also very well-known in the world — Domino’s Pizza. They are known for their extensively curated menu while keeping in mind the traditional taste of a specific branch’s country along with an unwavering Italian feel.

In the past, Domino’s Pizza had no branch in Cebu but only in other parts of the Philippines. However, due to insistent public demand, the world’s favorite pizza store opened two branches in Cebu: (1) Pacific Mall in Mandaue Cebu and (2) Horizons 101 in Mango Avenue.

Domino’s Pizza is also set to open its 3rd branch at Cebu IT Park later this year.

Their newest branch is located in Pacific Mall, Mandaue City, an addition to the company’s 87-strong collection of branches in the city. This now makes it the 88th Domino’s Pizza store in the Philippines, which is set to be added with more branches for Cebu soon.

They serve a variety of flavors and dishes; not only pizza but also pasta, chicken dishes, bread, desserts, and refreshing drinks. One of their bestsellers, the American Bacon Cheeseburger, is something you should try out when coming to the place!

If you’re also looking for deals that will satisfy your cravings without breaking the bank, Domino’s Pizza has got your back. With their affordable menu and promos, such as its buy-one-take-one “Double Deal” starting at ₱569 for two 10-inch pizzas, you’re surely in for a treat!

So, what are your waiting for? Head on to their newest branch, located at Pacific Mall, across Red Ribbon, and beside Zubuchon. They are also available for delivery via Foodpanda, GrabFood, and its official app, Domino’s Pizza Philippines.

The Secrets of Cebu’s best and original Lemonade

1

Who wouldn’t want a cup of lemonade?

It goes with every meal and every food. We have lemonade for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and lemonade on dates, during happy hours, and even on a late-night cup.

A lemonade drink has become a staple in our lives that we can’t even begin to imagine not having our go-to lemonade stands. But did you know that the original lemonade stand came to Cebu in 2015?

The Lemon Co. was brought to the Philippines by a couple from the United States who were big fans of lemonade stands there and seized the opportunity to set up the first-ever lemonade stand in Metro Ayala Supermarket in Cebu.

They served “Love and Happiness in a cup” and The Lemon Co.’s taste was embraced by the Cebuanos with open arms and even got recognized as “Sunstar Best of Cebu 2018- Best Lemonade” and has held that title for three consecutive years.

Since then, they have gone out to several Cebu malls and began branching out, and VisMin now has over 40 branches to cater to every lemonade lover.

Fresh Natural and Flavorful Lemonade

The thing that sets The Lemon Co. apart is that it gives you the full lemonade experience. Their refreshing drinks are 100% hand-pressed drinks from freshly squeezed lemons. They are all-natural without using powders and The Lemon Co.’s ingredients are sourced locally in support of Cebu’s farmers.

These freshly made lemonades come in various flavors as well to make them more exciting.

  • Old-Fashioned Lemonade
  • Mango Lemonade
  • Cucumber Lemonade
  • Lemongrass Lemonade
  • Ginger Lemonade
  • Strawberry Lemonade
  • Watermelon Lemonade
  • Yakult® Lemonade
  • Orange Lemonade

These flavors can be taken to the next level with some add-ons and substitutes like chia seeds, hot lemonade, honey, and stevia, and can even have your choice of sweetness level.

Lemon Co. Carts and Pastry

Now, you can get a cup of tasty lemonade for yourself and your friends on the stands but how about when you are throwing a lemonade party? Well, no worries, The Lemon Co. have got your back as they are offering Lemonade Carts for parties and events.

Some exciting news for all of us is that they are about to launch journal and pastry products soon.

Be a The Lemon Co. Franchisee

The Lemon Co. is a stable and rising franchise with seven years of experience so all the systems are in place making it easy to set up and manage. Their Return of Investment average is 17 months but could be 10 months depending on location, with the fastest one being four months in Dumaguete.

Chris Evans is ‘Sexiest Man Alive’

Known for being a dog lover and his strong political views, Chris Evans is hailed as People Magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” this year. He has been known for being charming, intelligent, funny, and appealing. In fact, a lot of women in the world, regardless of their race and age, seem to consider him as their “internet boyfriend.”

Not A Surprising Designation

Gained widespread recognition and fame through his role as Captain  America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he is one of the most sought-after and highest-paid actors in Hollywood. While he seems ecstatic about this title, fans approve of this what they call a long-awaited honor. The result was revealed on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.

He describes his Sexiest Man Alive title as “a weird form of humble bragging.” The 41-year-old Boston native was recently added to the list of the previous Sexiest Men such as Idris Elba, Michael B. Jordan, Richard Gere, Adam Levine, Tom Cruise, and Brad Pitt. He is taking over the title from another Avenger star Paul Rudd, who was last year’s winner.

While everyone seems happy with the news, especially his fans, he couldn’t help but talk about how proud his mom is. “This is something she can really brag about, ” Evans told People Magazine in a recent interview. While his mother is all proud of it, he said that his friends would surely tease him about this new designation. His mom, Lisa, is not surprised at all that his son is hailed as this year’s sexiest by People.

Is Chris Evans Still Single?

Having this new badge of honor got fans asking if Chris is single or not. “The Gray Man” actor admitted that he doesn’t want to talk publicly about his private life. Evans’ dating history comprises A-list Hollywood personalities such as Jessica Biel, Kate Bosworth, Christina Ricci, and Minka Kelly. On the other hand, there were rumors about him dating Selena Gomez and Lily James.

Photo from MICHAEL SCHWARTZ

He is rumored to be dating Warrior Nun actress, Alba Baptista. The two were seen holding hands in Central Park, New York. Neither of them has confirmed the on-going romance. The Brazilian-Portuguese beauty is known for her ability to speak 5 different languages: Spanish, German, French, English, and Portuguese. The “Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris” star is adored by her fans for her incredible Humanitarian work in Cambodia.

While his career is at its peak, the People’s Sexiest Man Alive winner hopes to start a family in the future. He said having kids and a family is what he wants to build. However, he believes that things happen at the right time, with the right person.

Evans is the co-founder of A Starting Point – a website conceived in 2020, which aims to present videos by both former and current elected officials, presenting numerous insights and points of view on certain issues that are related to the United States of America electorate. The civic engagement platform hopes to help voters in understanding the issues of politics in the US.
