Dial Yogurt Body Wash

I am all for Dial's Yogurt Body Washes these days.

Dial Body Wash & Hand Soap

My aunt sent this to us from the US, and initially I was just interested because of the Vanilla Honey scent but as I used it, it leaves your skin super soft and leaves you with a lingering fragrance. I am so much a fan of leaving scents subtly on your skin that I was totally hooked. For the first time in years, I look forward to not putting lotion onto my body after my bath (except my butt though. Moisturize always or hello! stretch marks.). I love smelling myself in the middle of the day and still smell the vanilla fragrance on my skin. Gives me confidence that whoever will come near me will know I smell great and not overpoweringly so. :)

VANILLA HONEY
Be sweet to your skin, with a cleansing wash infused with honey and scented with vanilla. More than enticing fragrance, this luxurious wash bathes your body in moisturizing yogurt protein, and rinses cleanly, to leave your skin feeling sensationally smooth and wonderfully hydrated. What could be sweeter?

*This is what Im using... Smells so freakinly good!

Aloe Vera
Treat your skin to a cleansing experience that combines the natural nourishment of yogurt protein and aloe. This creamy, delicately scented body wash moisturizes completely and rinses fully, leaving your skin delightfully fragrant and wonderfully soft to touch.

*This Im also lusting after. Also smells pretty good, but we cant be selfish now can we?

*You can get this at local US supermarkets for a little over $5. Such a steal!

Pepper Lunch Madness

I want to go to Manila again to eat at Pepper Lunch. Thats it. Thats my craving right now. I've been following Ms. Cecille's (dunno if I spelled it right) blog over at Chuvaness and I was mildly curious about Pepper Lunch but it was never in my priority list to try it. When Casey & I went to Manila, we'd had enough of Glorietta so decided to try Rockwell instead. Believe it or not it was my first time there. While we were at the ground floor we were looking for a place to eat. Somewhere not that poshy and not too cheap either. Somewhere middle class! Is what I would describe it. So while we were walking around we came to Pepper Lunch, and I decided right then & there that this was it! I actually didnt have high hopes for the taste since here in Cebu we have the Sizzling Pepper Steak in Terraces, which is pretty much the same concept and just look at how it is, everyone says its really bad!

Anyway, I think we ordered the number 11, the Combo Cut Steak & Hamburger. We were pretty hungry by then, after shopping for a few hours.

About Pepper Lunch:

Pepper Lunch (ペッパーランチ Peppaa-ranchi) is a "fast-steak" restaurant concept that originated in Japan in 1994. It was created by Japanese chef and inventor, Mr. Kunio Ichinose who wanted to serve quality, fast food without the need to train a chef for years.

At Pepper Lunch diners get to cook their own food over a patented electromagnetic plate that is heated up to 260 degrees Celsius within one minute.
Choice cuts of beef, chicken, pork and salmon are served with rice and vegetables for guests to cook and season using flavors of teriyaki, onion sauce, honey brown sauce (Amakuchi) or garlic soy sauce (Karakuchi)—and that dash of freshly ground pepper to give you that delicious, flavor-filled meal.
Now there are over 200 Pepper Lunch outlets in Japan and all over Asia, including South Korea, China, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines.

Pepper Lunch Philippines is owned and operated by Peper Broers Inc. and is a franchise from Suntory Food & Beverage International based in Singapore. The first outlet opened at the Power Plant mall in Rockwell on May 16, 2008. The second outlet will open at Shangri-La Plaza in late 2008.

I never expected it was going to be sooo good and that I would actually like it! I mean, from the disappointment of Sizzling Pepper Steak, Pepper Lunch was a complete turn around. I was soo glad I got to try it coz I dont think I can live without it ever again... :) I truly truly recommend eating at Pepper Lunch, I also like how they have the sauce just right at your table and you can season to taste. The only drawback is just that by the time the pork finished cooking on our plates, there was really a lot of oil. Well anyway, I can forgive that, just coz they're so good. :)

After the disaster of PAL & Cebu Pac on my ticket, thank God there's one thing good that came out of my trip there. I am sorely tempted to go back there now. :( When will they come here to Cebu?!? God I cannot stand this... I have to get there soon!
