30 November 2009 – Even though I was (and still am) sick during that day, I still managed to reach SM City Cebu‘s Foodcourt on an eager tummy. A small area in the entrance part of Foodcourt was well prepared, decorated and lit to give way to a first-of-its-kind food event in a mall, the Asia-in-a-Basket Bloggers Meet. I am thankful that the management of SM City Cebu made this event possible.
Asia-in-a-basket showcases the food that we Pinoys (Asians in general) are proud of. We are known to be a nation of good food, they say. And I might as well say I agree with that and probably you too. The venue has 2 tables lined with different delectable dishes from seafood to meat to pastries and more. One table is for display only (picture taking, food camwhoring) and one for us to taste. Here are some shots I took with my cam:
The gorgeous staff of Aboitiz welcomed us and ushered us to the registration table. We were then told that we were to wait for the others and are free to roam the clubhouse. After taking a look at the event area, we were ushered to a miniature model of the whole of Pristina North where everything about it was explained and shared to us. A few jotted down notes. I didn’t. I was taking pictures. We were also introduced to AboitizLand’s current project, Persimmon, condominiums in Mabolo, Cebu City.
