Hermanos Tapas and Deli Bar is located along Julia Vargas Avenue in Ortigas. It’s inside the Home Depot compound along with other new restaurants and bars people would usually hang out on a typical Friday night. Hermanos opened last February. They invited over some friends and bloggers to try out their food. Gail and I needed to unwind at that time so we decided to check it out.

It’s a movie theater turned into a spa treatment room. Or maybe the other way around. In any case, you can have a relaxing foot spa while watching your favorite horror movie Saw (and freak out during the part wherein the guy rips off his own feet with a hacksaw).

BlueWater Day Spa has recently introduced this spa movie theatre concept as a one-of-a-kind service being offered at their newly opened Ortigas Avenue branch. It’s the first ever spa movie theatre in the whole wide world according to their president, Francis Simisim. If ever you see one of those posters or billboards of Marian Rivera and Piolo Pascual endorsing a spa, it’s them - BlueWater Day Spa!

Last December, we spent a windy weekend in Boracay during the holidays. We flew there via SEAIR and since it was a sort of last minute outing with friends, we have not made early reservations at any hotels. But since at that time, surprisingly there weren’t too many tourists, we managed to get a 3 days / 2 nights accommodation at The Taj Guesthouse situated along Station 2.

If you’re looking for a no-frills, cheap yet classy mini hotel in Boracay, then The Taj is one of several guesthouses located just 3-minutes away from D’Mall in Station 2. How to get there? You can check out Nina’s (of JustWandering.org) guide to cheap accommodation in Boracay diagram. Rates for their Standard Room accommodation can go as low as Php1,000 during off-peak (June to November), Php1,500 during peak season (December to May), and Php2,500 during holidays. Here are their rates and amenities.
