    Jolibee - the most disappointing fast food restaurant I have had the pleasure of frequenting. I now refuse to go there and go to McDonalds instead. At least McDonalds' burgers and fries look remotely like the pictures (and taste 100 times better of course).

    Pret is quite good, I especially like their Swedish Meatball wrap, I normally grab one if I'm in meeting in London in the week. Yum.

    Filipino food is generally the worst in asia,filipino fast-food doubly so



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
