SEOUL TRAIN KOREAN BBQ / WHEN CONCERT PRODUCERS HIT THE GRILL!

SEOUL TRAIN KOREAN BBQ / WHEN CONCERT PRODUCERS HIT THE GRILL!

If this is going to Busan, I would probably think twice (there goes my poor movie reference haha). But Seoul Train isn't infested with flesh eating zombies, instead it's you who gets to savage Korea's fresh and high quality meat!

WATCH: GET TO KNOW KICKSTATIK, YOUR ULTIMATE ONE STOP SHOP FOR VINYLS, SNEAKERS & MORE!

GET TO KNOW KICKSTATIK, YOUR ULTIMATE ONE STOP SHOP FOR VINYLS, SNEAKERS & MORE!

I am a late bloomer when it comes to sneakers. I do have pairs of rubber shoes and sneakers growing up, but it's either given to me or I have to buy one coz I just applied for gym membership. I am a heels to wedge to flat shoes lady, but would prefer wearing slippers everyday given the chance. I was never the sporty looking one, I would just wear my fave red and black Converse hi-cut or the classic Adidas whenever I want to look boyish or rugged at work.

LOVE UKULELE? HERE ARE PLACES YOU CAN BUY, LEARN, AND PLAY THE UKE!

LOVE UKULELE? HERE ARE PLACES YOU CAN BUY, LEARN, AND PLAY THE UKE!

Learning how to play this cute little member of the lute family is just one of the short term goals I'm planning to achieve this year. I remembered when some of my officemates would bring their ukuleles and play them after work where we would all sing along. The idea of quick jamming sessions without having to bring a guitar, which looks like the uke's big daddy (yet the two are different), started my interest. Problem is I don't own a ukulele yet and I don't know who among my friends are available to teach me. Good thing we have a growing number of places where we can purchase the ukulele. But the best ones are those where we can also learn how to play them, even jam with fellow uke lovers, while enjoying good food and drinks!

WHERE: HOMEGROWN CAFE PLAYING ALL LOCAL MUSIC AT BO'S COFFEE

HOMEGROWN CAFE PLAYING ALL LOCAL MUSIC AT BO'S COFFEE

I had no idea Bo's Coffee is actually a local cafe not until this event, and they're more than proud to shout "HOMEGROWN"! I love how marketing strikes not just the consumer's money but its advocacy as well. A local cafe sharing Filipino music to promote talents and strengthen homegrown recognition humbles me a lot. 

Bo's Coffee's second #BrewPH at Glorietta 5 gathered music lovers to introduce their greater aim for Filipino pride by opening its doors to showcase local music in order to bring their customers’ auditory experience to a higher level...

WHERE: HIGHLANDS COFFEE TIMOG / MODERN MUSIC AND MOVIE NIGHT MEETS VIETNAMESE CAFFEINE

HIGHLANDS COFFEE TIMOG / MODERN MUSIC AND MOVIE NIGHT MEETS VIETNAMESE CAFFEINE

You go to a cafe like the most popular "crowned mermaid" coffee shop and what type of music do you expect? I am sure we all have the same answers.

But when you go to Highlands Coffee at Timog Avenue, Quezon City, the answers may vary. Wanna know the song which made me decide to write about this place? Clarity - yeah, Zedd's Clarity. And after some edm hits, a playlist of the alternative rock band The Script was played. I was totally amused and have to double check whether it's beer or coffee in front of me...

WHERE: 8 CUTS BURGER BLENDS / CUSTOM-MADE BURGER, CUSTOM-MADE PLAYLIST

8 CUTS BURGER BLENDS / CUSTOM-MADE BURGER, CUSTOM-MADE PLAYLIST

Meat our blends. With 8 Cuts Burger's tagline, you can tell that this is one of those slowly increasing number of "make-your-own" burger joints. Um okay, so why is a music blog even interested about it?

When my friend from U.P. told me about this burger place at UP Town Center that lets you choose which song to listen to through an app, I didn't think twice of checking it out! First for the curiosity, and second for the love of buns and patty...

WHERE: TYA BAR AND RESTAURANT / A LINK TO A DECADE OF GOOD MUSIC

Since Throwback Thursdays bring us back to our old photos, my first WHERE entry this Thursday would be a bar that brings us back to good 80's to 90's music.

Established in the 1980s, Ten Years After Bar and Restaurant became a favorite night spot in the 1990s until early 2000. They have branches in Malate, Sgt.Esguerra St. and St. Francis Square until it closed.
