Here's another shot of flavored teas on our list.  Here's some are some information about them.

Despite the growing popularity of tea as one of the main culprits for longevity among the Asians, many would shy away from the drink because of the bitter, bland taste of tea. While some would appreciate the distinct taste of tea, most people would prefer refreshing drinks with a more umami and sweet taste to quench their thirst.

Because of the mismatch between the health wonders and the unpleasant taste of tea, many innovations have been created, and one of them is the creation of the designer tea-based drinks widely available today. Milk teas are tea-based drinks with added milk and customized flavourings to mask the bitter taste of tea and to add a stronger umami taste into the blend. Fruit teas are fruit-flavoured tea drinks that add sweet, citrus flavours into the bitterness of tea, creating a more refreshing aftertaste into the drink.

Since summer is here already Kwento Ni Toto indulge into a bursting tea experience this month. Thanks to Mommy Jo and Ms. Donna Andrada for opening the gates of awesome possibilities.

Recently, Cobo opened their latest branch in Sta. Lucia East Mall, Cainta, Rizal. This is their 20th branch after Cobo had finally boomed and soared high as the demand for milk tea beverages increased its popularity. Making a good impact to the public and attracting more customers.

If cooking and baking is what you love, perhaps this will interest you because last March 13, 2013, Universal Robina Corporation in partnership with Department of Tourism formally launched the FLOURISH PILIPINAS, a campaign that recognizes and celebrates Filipino flour-based delicacies either through time-tested traditions or bold innovations.

Hay... yah!  Here's a good news for all food lovers in the metro, specially those who are near the Quiapo area.

Karate Kid, home to the metro’s favorite Japanese-American specialties, gives more Filipinos a chance to experience its delectable offerings as it opens its newest store in Quiapo, the first one for 2013.

“The market for Japanese fusion cuisine has shown steady growth through the years and we feel that Karate Kid has greatly contributed to that,” says Karate Kid EVP Raymond Yap. “After the success of Karate Kid’s five store openings last year, we continue to strengthen our commitment to provide Filipinos with the brand’s signature Japanese-American delights as we expand in key areas in the metro.”

The best way for a story to be told is to have a storyteller and for big brand like Max's Restaurant big name from the entertainment industry is needed as well to continue the story telling and the best name that qualifies for that is the well loved artist of this generation none other than Coco Martin.  Yes, Coco Martin is the newest face and brand ambassador of Max's.  According to Max's officials, Coco Martin's name came most popular among the actors of this generation and that's why they have him now as one of their growing family.

It's the first food review of Kwento Ni Toto for this year and since it's New Year new things will happen.  To start the tease for the changes I mentioned in one of my post that there will a Monday Jam for music and today which is for food, restaurants, recipes, drinks or everything that deals with food and drinks will fall under Tuesday Appetite.  Of course I know most foodie events are done on weekends so I'll just make sure to have it posted on Tuesdays so readers will know what they'll be expecting on that day.  So expect more!

So for our Tuesday Appetite we will be having a Singaporean and Cantonese Cuisines from Wangfu Chinese Cafe.  The place is located at Il Terrazzo Mall in Tomas Morato.  It's just around the place of Tomas Morato where most of the best restaurants and bars in the metro are found.  Of course it is Quezon City which is dubbed is the City of Stars.  For those who will looking for the place it can easily be spotted.

Thousand Teas equals a thousand flavors and a thousand aromas. That’s what I was able to experience during the exci-Tea-ing event or should I say a Tea Ceremony event held a few weeks ago. Perhaps that’s what I’ll call it because of the different information that I’ve learned with that half day event.

For a start Thousand Teas is I think the first Tea house that mainly offer all kinds of Teas. Though the market is mostly not tea lovers’ and because the location is settled near the universities, they are targeting them by offering something new and flavorful like their milk teas.
