Island Tea Co.: World-famous Sri Lankan tea in Cebu

Did you know Ceylon Tea from Sri Lanka is among the best in the world? Discover the varying yet distinct flavors and types of Ceylon Tea in the tropical island of Cebu, at Island Tea Co.

Sri Lanka is known for their best-tasting tea. It has all the favorable conditions that are critical for producing the unique taste, aroma and taste of Ceylon Tea, which is 100% grown and processed only in Sri Lanka under strict rules and restrictions governed by the tea board. Imagine, this special tea is actually being offered by Island Tea Co. in Cebu!

Sri Lanka’s Best Tea & Milk Tea

In our time today, tea has always been associated to milk tea when in reality, real tea gives you a lot of health benefits while milk tea brings risks due to the incredibly high numbers for sugar content if not drank moderately. Moreover, you can’t taste the “tea” anymore in most milk teas today.

Island Tea Co. wants to change that by providing you the best of both worlds — Sri Lanka’s best-tasting Ceylon Tea and the millennial favorite milk tea but without compromising the “real taste” of tea this time.

Driving the Ford Wildtrak and XLT in uphill Cebu

During the Ford Philippines media drive last month, I got to drive around and visit some attractions in the mountains of Cebu, along the National Transcentral Highway. Included in the itinerary were a flower garden and lettuce farms where we got to deliver plastic drums to the farmers and delivered their freshly harvested produce to the nearest buying facility.

However the highlight of the drive was, we got to test out two pickup trucks from Ford. The 4×2 2.2 litre TDCi Ford Ranger XLT and the new 4×4 2.0L Bi-turbo Ford Ranger WILDTRAK.

Both are very awesome trucks but the WILDTRAK was definitely way cooler than the former. Here’s why.

LOOKS

For an untrained eye, a WILDTRAK could be easily distinguished because it has the word Wildtrak all over it. Also, it has a different wheel mag than the other variants, an 18” alloy mag to be specific. Aesthetically, it almost looks the same with the other variants. But a Wildtrak is a Wildtrak.

4×2 2.2 litre TDCi Ford Ranger XLT
4×4 2.0L Bi-turbo Ford Ranger WILDTRAK

ENGINE

The new WILDTRAK is equipped with a 2.0L Bi-turbo diesel engine. It has the same engine with FORD’s Ranger RAPTOR. The 2.0L Bi-turbo engine offers great power despite from lowering its displacement from a 2.2-Litre to a 2.0-Litre. It can deliver a power of 213HP and a torque of 500Nm. It is equipped with a 10 automatic transmission

Opinion: I could really feel the power of the new engine because I tried the Wildtrak on steep uphills and it devoured the climb easily.

2019 Ford Ranger XLT
2019 Ford Ranger WILDTRAK

HANDLING

It is equipped with electrical power assisted steering (EPAS). This makes steering smoother and easier on bigger wheel size. 

Opinion: The WILDTRAK gave a more responsive steering wheel. The XLT had a very short lag on my experience, nevertheless it was really short and it doesn’t lower down its overall handling performance.

INTERIOR

The WILDTRAK had a digital rpm monitor which you can toggle on and off. It is also connected to the head unit so you could easily check the headunit without looking at the actual headunit. The overall interior has a touch of luxury despite for the fact that the truck was built for heavy and tough usage.

Opinion: I really don’t have much to say with the interior but I do love how cool the dashboard panel and its display is.

OTHERS  

The WILDTRAK is perfect for those who are not used to driving larger vehicles. It has sensors surrounding the vehicles that detects nearby objects and notifies the driver how close an object is.

Active park assist. When activated the, the vehicle would fine a parallel parking space and will do the steering  itself.

Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB). It helps detecting pedestrians and vehicles nearby  and precharges the brakes to be more sensitive when to be applied suddenly. If you fail to react on time, it can automatically apply the brakes.

Tailgate assist lift. A tailgate of a pickup truck is really have, lowering it down could cost you an effort. With the tailgate assist,  opening and closing of the tailgate will be at ease because of the added torsional bar.

The WILDTRAK is a really great pickup. From the looks to performance, it is undoubtedly built for tough trips.  If I were to choose a pickup truck, then I would definitely go for Ford.

Marvel’s new Filipina superhero is a Cebuana!

You might have probably heard of it already. But did you know the new Filipino Marvel superheroine is from Cebu?

Launched just last March 8 in time for International Women’s Day, a Marvel comic book writer announced a new comic book superhero — a Filipina named ‘Wave’, who lives in Cebu.

Wave has been described by Marvel as “a mysterious new Filipino heroine.” She has the identifiable Filipino “morena” skin, a green and gold costume, and Philippine-inspired weapons.

Designed and co-created by Filipino comic book artist Leinil Francis Yu, Wave will appear for the first time in the comics “War of the Realms: New Agents of Atlas #1,” the first of four issues.

This will be available at comic book stores by May 2019.

Summer Splash at Hidden Valley Resort in Pinamungajan

Step up your summer pooling experience!

We discovered a gem in the rustic stretch of Southern Cebu. Quite special that you can’t find anywhere else in the province, rarely in the country. A gem that shines best in the brightest season of the year, summer! It will probably make you think of “pools” and “beaches”. But would you care if we step that up a notch? Let’s bring those waves into our pools and experience a genuine splash while enjoying the countryside cascade.

And whether you are looking for a lovely weekend, exciting escape from the city, or much  more… then this paragon in the valleys of Pinamungajan is the best way to kick start your summer. Reintroducing, the newly improved Hidden Valley Resort!

Hidden Valley Resort is a complex of pools, cottages, adventure and a beautiful overlooking scenery. And while there is much that we can tell you about how ideal this place is for your next trip, let’s break down the pieces.

 

Hidden Valley Pools

 

Although it’s uncommon to serve the main dish right head on, we will tell you right away that this should be your #1 reason to visit Hidden Valley Resort – the Wave Pools.

Wave Pool

Who wouldn’t be thrilled by the idea of waves in a pool… deep in the mountains? The idea of wave pool has been around not quite while. Wave pools replicate the movement of the ocean in some science-y ways we are not sure you are interested about. Rest assured… Every other 30 mins of your stay in the wave pool will surely be electrifying when the waves are on.

Infinity Pool / Raging River

What attracts most people to like infinity pools is in the description itself – a pool that gives the impression that it merges into the ocean or other surrounding landscape. At Hidden Valley Resorts, you get to enjoy the infinity pool circumscribed by the wave pool plus the ravishing mountain scenery.

Mountain Pool

One way to name the pool we used to love. However ordinary, the amazing surrounding view, town house-like ambiance and the fresh valley breeze add a lot of feels.

HOW TO GET THERE?

Exact location: Barangay Lamac, Municipality of Pinamungajan. Approx. 1.5 hour away from the city via Bunga-Lutopan road (recommended route).

For commuters, take a bus in Cebu South Bus Terminal going to Lutopan, Toledo City. Inform the driver to drop you off at Eskina Bunga for Hidden Valley. Bus fare is ₱40 per head, while travel time is about 1.5 to 2 hours depending on the traffic. From Lutopan, take a “habal-habal” (motorcycle) going to Hidden Valley Wave Pool. Two people could accommodate the “habal-habal” and each has to pay ₱60 (one-way). If you’re alone, you’ll have to pay ₱120 for the fare. Travel time is another 15-20 minutes for 14km.

If you’re bringing your own car, READ CAREFULLY. We do not recommend using Waze since it will take you to the longer route. However, you can use it to navigate going to “Bunga, Lutopan”. You will then find a group of habal-habal few meters after a gas station. Then take a turn to the left until you’ve reached to the resort. There’s ample parking space available.

Cebu Sumibi Yakiniku Tajimaya: Grill All You Want, Eat All You Can

Yakiniku!

If the Korean cuisine has the famous Samgyeopsal, the Japanese has its distinct version, the Yakiniku — a Japanese term that means “grilled meat”.

Cebu Sumibi Yakiniku Tajimaya offers a unique and authentic Japanese dining experience with its smoke-free charcoal-grilled (yakiniku) food. Perfectly grilled delicacies, unlimited meat and authentic Japanese sauce won’t let you put your chopsticks down.

For only 650php per head, you can Grill All You Want and Eat All You Can at Cebu Sumibi Yakiniku Tajimaya.

There are a lot of choices — there’s beef, pork, chicken, shrimps, sausages, fishballs, livers, chicken gizzards and wings, vegetables, fries, and soup. It includes french fries, too!

Our team were lucky to be invited to actually taste their food. And I must say this is definitely one of the best in town! We love the premium quality of the meat — it is more flavorful and is easier to grill because of the thin cuts.

Trending: MangaHolic’s Reading Lounge in Cebu City

Even with the rising popularity of streaming TV and movie shows like Netflix and other foreign influences like K-Pop, many are still fond of watching anime and reading manga.
