SM CITY MOLINO Food Court Is Now Open

I visited SM City Molino last November 18 when I heard that the new food court has finally opened last November 14. The food court is located at the second level of the mall near the SM Cinemas and Cyberzone. I went there during the opening hours of the mall and I'm glad it's not yet crowded. The new food court is spacious with enough tables and chairs for groups, couples, and solo diners. It is clean, colorful, cozy, and very IG worthy. There is also a service water and hand washing area. You can also view the controversial Molino-Paliparan flyover while eating. With regards to food stalls, there are lots of them to choose from according to your cravings, these includes Pepper Lunch Express, Mr. Kimbob, Taste of Joy, Steak Break, Salo, Thaiwadee, Gangjee Hong-Kong, Yoichi by Hanakazu, Happy Roasts, Under the Sea, Fruitas House of Desserts, IL Mio Coffee, Turks, Los Churerros, and Potato Corner. So that's it. Get ready to visit the new food court and enjoy eating your favorite meal. 

Giant Christmas Tree Inside SM City Dasmariñas

Christmas is fast approaching. Everybody is excited. Every malls are on a festive mood with their Christmas decorations on display. I visited SM City Dasmariñas the other day. As expected, a giant Christmas is on display as the centerpiece of the mall. So big, I was not able to capture the whole thing on my phone camera. I was able to take a picture only a part of it. Nevertheless, I took photos of the other display around the Christmas tree.

QUEZON (2025 Movie)

I had watched the Philippine movie "QUEZON" which stars Jericho Rosales as Manuel Luis Quezon in the lead role. I can say that this film is a must see movie. This is the final movie in the trilogy of director Jerrold Tarog that includes Heneral Luna (2015) with John Arcilla in the lead role, and Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral (2018) with Paulo Avelino as Gregorio "Goyo" Del Pilar. 

The film QUEZON is a historical drama focusing on the political rise and as a statesman of Philippine President Manuel Luis Quezon. The film is fast face, no violence, engaging, and entertaining. Every scenes are well crafted, the cinematography, production design, editing, music, and most of all Jericho Rosales gave justice to the character of Manuel L. Quezon. All of the actors and actresses included in the film gave a superb acting like Mon Confiado as Emilio Aguinaldo, Romnick Sarmienta as Sergio Osmeña, Karylle as Aurora Quezon, Benjamin Alves as the young MLQ. The Department of Education has recommended to support the film to junior and senior high school students, and teachers. It encourages to integrate the movie in classroom discussions especially its historical relevance. I encourage everyone to watch this film. The movie is now on its 4th week in hundreds of theatres nationwide. 

All Saint's Day (2025)

Today is All Saint's Day, also known as Undas in the Philippines. It is a public holiday on November 01 to honor and remember both saints and our departed ones. As a tradition, families will go to the cemetery, memorial parks, and columbariums to offer flowers, prayers, lighting of candles and cleaning the graves of the deceased love ones. This event for many Filipinos makes them to travel to their hometowns, making it a family reunion. The occasion is solemn for remembrance but it is also a communal event where you see vendors selling candles, food, drinks, toys, and flowers inside and outside the cemetery.
