Uptown Bonifacio welcomes another establishment from the renowned 1771 group of Restaurants as it cooks its way to the heart of mall goers and food enthusiasts. Making its expansion in the busy streets of Uptown Bonifacio by opening Sentro 1771's newest branch.

Not far from its sister restaurant, Flatiron, which opened its door to same mall last year. Flatiron is one of the restaurants that serves impeccable flavors of nothing but goodness of comfort food prepared on a griddle. Its menu is an eclectic collection of comfort food that is American in core with a touch of European and Asian influences. Consumers craving for a mouthwatering dining experience will be served with delectable urban comfort food.

Drawn from its name, Flatiron Brisket 6 is the restaurant's house specialty, definitely, a must try! The meat is slowly cooked for 6 hours to achieve the perfect fusion of tasteful ingredients and the reight amount of tenderness. One can also devour on its Chicken Piccata, thinly-pounded chicken breast fried in butter and tossed in lemon butter sauce. The richness of the lemon butter sauce is balanced by the lightly creamed spaghettini. Another comfort food that will surely fill a growling stomach is the Corned Beef Skillet sauteed with onions and tomatoes that comes with sunny side eggs and a choice of rice or potato bread rolls.

Conclude the dining experience with a bang! After savoring on Flatiron's heavy delicious meals, diners can indulge in the sweetness of the Intense Brownie Burger, a coffee icre cream sandwiched between 2 Swiss Chocolate fudge brownies on a cream cheese sauce mirror slathered with chocolate espresso sauce and toffee sauce. Its name says it all! One can expect for an intense, powerhouse combination of these melt-in-you-mouth ingredients.

"Flatiron was well received by patrons of Uptown Bonifacio. This progress alongside the emergence of various establishments in Bonifacio Global Center, specifically, in Uptown Bonifacio and the presence of a diverse community complemented with 1771's followers garnered through the years, are positive indicators that, indeed, there is a market in the vicinity. There is a flourishing food culture and explanding Sentro 1771 is most opportune" said Vicky Pacheco, Executive Chef and COO of 1771 Group of Restaurants.

Sentro 1771 is the brainchild of Chef Vicky who wanted to steer clear of the plain and the usual by creating modern Filipino food. She has consistently been bold in experimenting with flavors and exploring ways and techniques to revapm standard Filipino recipes to extraordinary, sophisticated and world class.

Filipinos are accustomed to the typical sinigang na baboy, hipon or isda. One will hardly think of other possible versions of SInigang but Sentro 1771 did and it resulted in perfection. The fully brined corned beef and the rich sour broth equate to a delicious sinigang. This unique reinvention of Sentro 1771 has been the best seller through the years.
Sentro 1771 also took everyone by surprise when it transformed galunggong, a modest food one would hardly find in a restuarant, into a sumptuous classy dish served with olive oil. Coined as "Rated GG", this dish gave the unexpected satisfaction to the high-end market.

People who flock Uptown Bonifacio can also feast on Sentro 1771's other premium-quality modern Filipino dishes like Adobo, Caldereta, Spring Rolls to name a few. And of course, Filipinos are insanely addicted to desserts! Sentro 1771's Keso Flan, a Filipino version of cheesecake topped with salted egg, keeps pulling diners back to eat and enjoy the amazing dining experience.

"We dream of Sentro 1771 as the go to for modern Filipino cuisine prepared in the creative culinary supervision of the best team in town using the freshest natural ingredients," uttered by Chef Vicky Pacheco.

Sentro 1771 is another unconventional restaurants that superbly takes Filipino cuisine on a different level. A pedestal where cuisines are highly appreciated. Its invasion in Uptown Bonifacio aims to cater for guests who are hungry and wanting the most satisfying treat to the palate. IT can also accommodate events in its cozy function room fit for an intimate gathering of 10-30 guests. Both Sentro 1771 and Flatiron accept reservations either through phone calls with contact numbers 792-9133 (Sentro 1771) and 802-5458 (flatiron) or through a visit in their restaurants exactly located at Upper Ground Floor, Uptown Bonifacio Mall, 36th street corner 9th avenue, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig

There's always an argument whether you're lucky or you just simply met your destiny. When it comes to love nobody knows a concrete answer about it. In my case all I know is that it comes like a thief in the night. It stoles the beating of your heart for someone else. So whether you're in luck or not in love only fate knows but for this summers romcom movie from Viva Films and N2 Production perhaps luck got something to say.

From the team that gave "Camp Sawi" with its mysterious camp and from the director of movies like "Always Be My Maybe" and "Walang Forever", come this year's most enchanting romance-comedy movie, "LUCK AT FIRST SIGHT". The very first pairing of Asian Dram King, Jericho Rosales and Primetime TV Gem, Bela Padilla on a big screen in a Joyce Bernal production.

The movie is about the characters of Joma Labayen which is played by Jericho and Diane Dela Cruz played by Bela. Joma Labayen, a down-on his-luck guy who believes that a "life-charm" could help make for him a rosy existence despite the drudgery of everyday living. By accident and by some stroke of fate, he meets Diane Dela Cruz (Bela), who he thinks is his "life charm". Little did he know that their encounters would lead him to the toughest choice his heart will ever make: Luck or Love.

Diane, however, is no sucker for stories of luck and/or life charms. She is a firm believer of love and how romance sheds light, beauty and happiness to one's being. Their partnership proves lucky enough until they discover that choosing between luck and love can be a tough pick.

Will Joma and Diane make the right choice? Will their love story ends in happily ever after? Find out when "LUCK AT FIRST SIGHT" casts its magical spell in cinemas nationwide starting May 3, only from VIVA Films and N2 Productions.

Well, even without the official announcement of PAG-ASA the heat of summer is already breaching in. When times like this there are so many things that you can do and enjoy at the same time, of course without borrowing down your wallet.

Here are some of the things that you can do to chill down the heat of summer.

• Get a glass of water and filled it with ice cubes,
• Make a sweet cold fruit shakes,
• Buy some fruit juices and have it frozen and let it melt down while drinking, or
• You can simply enjoy the cold Summer Drinks from Figaro.

All of the above are thirst quenchers and heat coolers but the last one is just simply easy and hassle free. All you need to do is visit one of Figaro branch that is near to your place and order their Summer Drinks. You can have all of you can enjoy it one drink a day.

This brand of beverages got some refreshing and interesting drinks to choose from and it is a certified summer drink that you can enjoy with your family, friends or love ones. If you’re feeling sentimental and a little bit emo there’s no stopping of which you would like to enjoy.


So what are these Summer Drinks from Figaro? To start with, Figaro got two kinds of Frappes or the cold drinks, one is the coffee-based frappes and the other one is non-coffee based frappes of which I know of someone who will definitely enjoy these drinks without the coffee flavor.

For their coffee-based frappes, I tasted three. And I enjoyed it very much even though the effect is the opposite. These are the…

• Macadamia Frappe, which is an interesting coffee-based drink because I thought it was a nutty kind of drink but it was not, I guess I’m just the one being nutty about it.

• White Chocolate Frappe, is a tasty chocolatey white colored drink. I love how the bits of chocolates lingers in my mouth plus the effect of the coffee that give a good combination.

• Caramel Frappe, the creamy taste is their and the caramel flavor lets you enjoy it very much. The sweetness is controlled and the coffee flavor is just right. 

For the non-coffee based frappes, I enjoyed most of it as well because my wife is petit, she would only consume what is right of her size. So, meaning the rest of the drinks that she won’t be able to drink would lead to my tongue and palate to savor the flavor. So they are…

• The Wild Strawberries Frappe, which I think tasty and fruity. My kid Maki would most likely enjoy this drinks. What I like about this is that it is not that sweet, it is just right to give the right amount of flavor as a juice.

• The Mixed Berries Frappe, of course these flavor a little bit new but I can accommodate new taste and new flavor. We don’t have much berries here in the Philippines so I’ll just indulged myself with this Mixed Berries.

• The Blueberry Forest Frappe is another new taste and new drink. Like I mentioned I love having new things and enjoying new taste.

• The Chocolate Frappe, as my wife liked it very much and of course I liked it too because it's chocolate. 

Whatever drinks you decided to pick I’m sure you’ll enjoy it very much. You can also enjoy it together with your friends or family. Since it summer it is always great to have time to chill down and relax.
