Taping at the Zorb Park
The Avatar Media Team granted FunnySexy’s request to tape an episode of her Flippish.com show “Who Dares Kring?” here in Davao City. And one of the things Kring dared to do was ride the Zorb Ball.
Getting Inside the Zorb Ball
Avatar Media is bringing a brand new service to Davaoeños and Davao businesses, My Davao Jobs, a job search site, designed specifically to cater Davao City and the Davao regions: Davao del Sur, Davao del Norte, and Davao Oriental.
The site offers free job postings for job opportunities in Davao. Companies, businessmen, HR managers, and head hunters are invited to post their job openings whether for full-time or part-time positions. And job seekers can find employment through the database. Freelancers may also post their credentials or surf through the database to look for opportunities.
This December, Mindanao filmmakers are once again conquering the silver screen with the Mindanao Film Festival. Now on its fifth year, the festival is bigger and better with more entries. Interesting ones.
Joining the Guerilla Filmmaking Category are:
- Binangay (Gems Productions). A paean to the banana plantation worker who toils from sunrise to sundown, dedicated and honest individuals, unyielding even amidst a very tempting offer coming from a banana pilferer.
- The Price of Fame (Maqer Media). A flamboyant and egotistical hip hop star finally meets his match in a short film that tackles fame and the pitfalls of paying its price.
- Boluntaryo (Plasticups Productions). The story of a street educator, who gives up everything to satisfy his desire, not the worldly kind but a benevolent passion to serve his brethren amidst obstacles and adversities.
Looking for something nice, unique, or quirky to give to your friend, special someone, relative, or that annoying officemate whose name you picked for kris kringle? Go to the Garden Oasis this weekend, and browse through the varied stalls and stores in the White Christmas Bazaar.
Brothers Burger with Cheese
We’ve been obsessing about good burgers. And we have been very excited about the news that the Brothers Burger is opening a branch in Davao City. We were there during it’s first week, and we weren’t disappointed.
Although a bit pricery, I think we got good value for our money. The place is often crowded so getting your order might take some time, but once you take a bite of it, you will definitely not regret it. The Brothers Burger is priced at P105. In exchange, you get a thick piece of grilled 100% beef patty in with fresh lettuce, tomatoes, ketchup and mustard in between soft and yummy buns. You can add cheese to the burger by paying an extra P20.
There’s a new burger joint in town. And boy do they serve giant, tender, juicy, yummy burgers. Harley Blvd Motor Cafe in an unpretentious little restaurant which serves burgers, hotdogs, spanish omelettes and more to diners on a budget.

Ria and the Monster Choco Caramel Cake
Who is Basti? That was one of the many questions answered during the press conference held last October 5, 2009 at the Basti’s Brew Legaspi Branch. Basti is short for Sebastian, son of Bong and Des Aportadera, one half of the couple of couples that own and manage Basti’s Brew. The other half is composed of Randall and Vanessa Ann Ong.
Shark's Fin Dumplings
If you’re craving for fast dimsum or simple comfort Chinese food, there’s only one place to go to here in Davao City, Dimsum Diner. Not actually one place as there are dozens of branches in Davao City alone, but it’s definitely where people go to for dimsum.
Salt and Pepper Riblets
When my friends and I are craving for a fast Chinese meal, we go to Dimsum Diner for some of their Bulad Rice, Salt and Pepper Riblets, and some dimsum. Their Siomai Supreme coupled with Humba Rice or plain steamed rice is a runaway winner to stave off your hunger any time of the day.
