...Italliani's at Greenbelt also has an "Italian Buffet" but it is for breakfast and lunch on weekends. The one in Midtown is dinners during weekdays...

...Private Iris' 2nd issue is already out. This issue has even more improbrable stunts but I guess I'm just critisizing the comic (too much) as an adult. There was a mini-launch at Powerbooks Live! recently, complete with games for kids...

...Survivor Philippines has already started on GMA 7 and it is being telecast daily. The island where the 18 castaways are staying is Koh Tarutao which is near the Thailand/Malaysia border. The sole survivor must last 39 days in the island in order to win the 3 million pesos cash prize. The whole group was divided into two tribes: Jarakay (all male) and Naak (all female), probably because Filipinos are more conservative and also to minimize problems that may arise when the camp has a mixed population. The challenges appear quite difficult, and the show adheres to the original Survivor series format. Paolo Bediones is a good choice for the host of this local Survivor version. My castaways to watch for (in terms of hotness, not necessarily who will likely win the top prize): Nikki Dacullo (call center agent) and Kaye Alipio (lingerie model)...

...celebrity sighting: Mariana Del Rio at Glorietta. Tall and sexy! :-)
