Yoshinoya Gyudon Eating Contest on It’s 4th Year

9:40:00 AM



This is actually my second year to cover the Yoshinoya Gyudon Eating Contest. Last year was my first which I was able to witness the winner Douglas James Candano, not actually just eat but gobbled up more than 6 bowls of gyudon. Also one of the bloggers, Florencio Jusay, Jr. won in the media category. It was indeed a day of gyudon. Imagine the look of these contestants eyeing to finish more bowls of gyudon than the other and also imagine the number of gyudon that Yoshinoya have to prepare. Well, it’s more than imagine but it happened last year.
So this year, for the last several weeks of getting qualifiers from different branches of Yoshinoya, they finally completed the list of individuals eager and hungry to take on the challenge and finish a number of gyudon. As Yoshinoya’s Gyudon Eating Contest marks its 4th year, many hungry Filipinos are in to test their mettle to gastronomic challenges. If Coney Island in New York, USA has the world-famous Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, then the Philippines definitely has Yoshinoya. And just like in the previous editions, the Yoshinoya Gyudon Eating Contest promises to be nothing short of excitement.

Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine may have won several Grammy Awards, sold millions of albums worldwide and judged the hit TV series The Voice, but in the movie BEGIN AGAIN, he gets upstaged as the spotlight turns to actress Kiera Knightley.

“I’ve never done anything like this,” admits Knightley who is best known for her costume dramas and period films such as “Pride & Prejudice,” and “Atonement,” as well as the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.

“My character has pretty much died in everything I’ve done for the last five years,” she jokes. “I decided I’d like to do something where I didn’t have to go through heavy emotional turmoil and die, if at all possible. There’s a touch of emotional turmoil in this, but in the end I found it to be incredibly hopeful. It’s rare to find pieces of work that are so full of hope.”

1:37:00 AM

Gone are the days of high-five, it’s an obsolete thing already for modern Pinoys because what mostly done now are the fist bump. Kwento Ni Toto tells a story of the brotherhood bond behind the fist bump. As most “Kanto Boys” would say when they meet and greet “pisbum pre” or “kasa mo pre” which literary mean fist bump and this happens when ever close friends get together for some happening and just plain chatting. Colt 45 embraces this new trend and Filipinizes it by calling it “Sanib Pwersa” as it re-introduces itself to the country in its latest “brewed for brotherhood” campaign.

To Colt 45, Sanib Pwersa means more to Filipinos than just a simple hand gesture among friends. It represents sincerity and loyalty among the people who deserved to be called their “bros” or “brads”, a privilege that is earned and proved over time, and not given automatically. It also represents the kind of relationship the brand wishes to foster with its drinkers.
