Experience the best fun, the best deals at Allphones stores now

The Allphones Philippines held a big celebration with the opening of the 50th store of Allphones located at the Robinsons Galleria in Ortigas, last Thursday, April 3, 2014.



"The celebration at the 50th store expres gratitude to Allphones customers,” said Maureen Gallant, Marketing Head of Allphones Philippines.

This is a milestone for both the company and the mobile phone retail sector in general. The speed of expansion and the broad reach that the company has achieved is something rare, considering that we are a new entrant in the market.

Filipino mobile phone users deserve a better experience when it comes to buying mobile phones and accessories. Consumers know this and that’s the likely reason why Allphones Philippines, the newest telecoms retail chain in the country, was able to expand to as many as 50 stores across the nation in just a few months. The enthusiastic support of consumers for Allphones stores has allowed the retail chain to achieve quick expansion and growth. It’s all about providing customers a leveled-up mobile phone retail experience in all of the 50 Allphones stores. 

But what makes Allphones such a hit among Filipino consumers?
There are three obvious ones: 
1) Fun and convenience; 
2) Unmatched mobile phone and SIM deals; and
 3) High-tech, futuristic in-store transactions. 

The fun and convenience start the moment a customer walks into an Allphones store. The white space, the sleek, clean lines, the efficient store design—all of these make shopping for a smartphone or accessory very easy on the eyes and on one’s feet as one can walk efficiently through the space. The mobile phones on display are in full-view, and live units are available for customers to sample and play with. 

This hands-on experience is not only fun—because a customer can actually try out a mobile phone’s features—but also very practical; after all, you can only really know if a gadget is right for you if you try it out for yourself. 


Allphones stores also carry the widest range of mobile phone models and brands; there are also accessories and other gadgets. The customer can browse and inquire about all these while being assisted by an Allphones store staffer who is friendly and knowledgeable about the products in stock. Overall, choosing a mobile phone at the store is an exciting and convenient process. 

Allphones stores also offer the sweetest, most value-for-money deals on its mobile phone kits, and postpaid plan accounts. You can get the latest, most advanced mobile phones at huge discounts or even for free depending on the postpaid plan that you choose. These postpaid plans are not only packed with features and services but also very affordable. Features include unlimited voice calls to Globe postpaid and TM mobile numbers, unlimited texting and unlimited mobile Internet depending on what combination of services you wish to get. 

When applying for a postpaid account, you will experience for yourself the high-tech, futuristic process used at all Allphones stores. Instead of asking you to fill out forms or submit photocopies of your documentary requirements, the postpaid transaction at an Allphones store only requires you to enter the relevant customer information on an iPad, and the store personnel will make on the spot digital copy of you requirements. You’re assured that your information is kept private and safe because it’s protected by a military grade security system.

During the April 3rd celebration, event guests and customers experienced the retail experience at the Allphones store in Robinsons Galleria and have the chance to win premium items. They also avail of the best, exclusive deals that the store offers. 

But that’s not all, after the launch, Allphones brings the fun to the hottest summer destinations in the country through its Allphones Fun for All Caravan. Special Allphones events and promos will be held in these areas so that more people, especially those on their summer holiday, can enjoy their vacation even more. 

“Bringing along a mobilie phone or smartphone on holiday is already a must for us Filipinos. These gadgets allow us to communicate and coordinate with companions during our travel. They let us take photos, express our thoughts, feelings, and impressions, and share these with family and friends and even to our social network. It’s all part of making our holidays happier and more meaningful. The Allphones caravan will help make all these possible by making the latest mobile phones and the most affordable, features-rich deals available to holiday-makers,” said Gallant.

The Allphones All for Fun Caravan kicks off in Cebu on April 25 and will proceed to Davao; Puerto Princessa; Subic; Lucena; and Cagayan de Oro. 

Allphones Philippines was created through a partnership between Allphones Australia, TAO Corporation and Globe Telecom.

Allphones Australia began as a single store in Mile End, South Australia in 1989. It eventually expanded to 200 stores nationally and has become the largest independent telecommunications retailer in Australia.

JESSIE J to Visit Manila, Sets To Perform at the Smart Araneta Coliseum

“Jessie J Live in Manila on July 14, 2014 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum presented by Midas Promotions in cooperation with Futuretainment, Inc.

After numerous number one singles and a debut album that headed straight for the top, selling millions worldwide, show-stopping performances in front of a global audience of billions at the Olympics and extraordinary acts for charity that hit the headlines, London-born songstress Jessie J shakes up Manila in “Jessie J Live in Manila.
The 26-year-old pop star burst onto the scene in 2011 with the explosive single, “Do It Like A Dude” in a feisty performance with a video so strong there was certainly no ignoring this talented new singer-songwriter, surfing between tough RnB and rap. That was followed by “Price Tag”, the anti-materialistic anthem of its year, and an album that sold in its millions going platinum several times over. But that was just the beginning of a journey that would see Jessie become the first British woman in history to take six top ten singles from one album and never mind that it was her first outing.

To add to those achievements are some pretty impressive statistics: coming up for 15 million sales, a Brit, the BBC Sound of 2011 award, two number one singles in the UK, number ones in no fewer than 19 countries, a number six hit in the US with “Domino”. There are many more. We could go on. And that’s not to mention her part in The Voice UK, the highly-rated BBC1 Saturday night prime-time show where she has mentored hopefuls alongside legends like Sir Tom Jones and will.i.am.

The former Voice UK coach also released her second studio album Alive in September and shaved off her trademark bob for Comic Relief, donating the hair to be woven into wigs for children who had lost their hair during cancer treatment. “I wrote my first album when I was 18. This is definitely more mature,” she said of her new record on which she wrote and worked on with the likes of Rodney Jerkins, Claude Kelly and Stargate. 

Witness as Jessie J delivers an evening of hits, dance tunes, trendsetter ways and show-stopping vocals which alters from jump-up and rave anthems made for nightclubs to soft ballad highlights including Domino, Laserlight, Thunder, Excuse My Rude, Do It Like A Dude, Wild, Who You Are, Price Tag, and It's My Party. 

Tickets will go on sale on April 8, 2014 at 9:00am at www.ticketnet.com.ph 
and Ticketnet outlets. For inquiries, call 911-5555.

The Avida Food Hunt with Chef JJ Yulo

“People who love to eat are always the best people.” A saying I like but I want to add more. Traveller, tourists and tripping people who not only love to eat, but are infinitely interested in all restaurants or places where to see all things edible -- come from all corners of the globe and all walks of life!

In fact, these people is one of the world's great equalizers, because it allows socially, culturally and economically diverse people to meet on equal footing as they appreciate the merits of various culinary offerings.

Filipinos are noted for their knack on exploring and trying out the newest dining destinations. The passion for great is so ingrained in the Filipino culture that access to it is vital to a truly dynamic lifestyle.

the Avida Food Hunt kicks off this March with Avida Towers Asten, a high-rise residential development in West Makati that is envisioned to have a dynamic mix of retail and dining options catering to the needs of the passionate millennial crowd. Avida Towers Asten inviting people to join Avida Food Hunt with Chef JJ Yulo leading this special gastronomical adventure.
 

The Avida Food Hunt is a food expedition wherein participants will get a taste of a sampling of specialty cuisines and epicurean fares in the neighboring Avida development. They will only discover which restaurant is part of the hunt as the tour progresses.

Founder of Pinoy Eats World, well-known chef, food write-blogger Chef JJ Yulo leads the hunt. Pinoy Eats World is dedicated to food culture, motivated to give the public an interesting and always delicious look at Pinoy Food.

This New York Institute of Culinary Education Chef has hosted several food tours in the country, Hong Kong and as far as Turkey. Yulo is passionate about discovering about food evolution and is most pleased to share his knowledge to all.

I remembered a field educational trip as I was coordinating with the schools and was enjoying the tour with the students. Now, it’s more fun that this food trip was a secret tour that will explore the different food destination in San Antonio Village, West Makati.

The Avida Food Hunt is a food expedition wherein participants will get a taste of a sampling of specialty cuisines and epicurean fares in the neighboring Avida development. They will only discover which restaurant is part of the hunt as the tour progresses.

The first stop is Carpaccio Ristorante Italiano, located right across Avida Asten. This popular restaurant has become a premiere destination for food and wine lovers seeking a classic Italian dining experience.



The first food we taste is the Carpaccio, a delectable dish of thinly sliced choice cut grade A beef served with cheese and fresh green salad on the side. This is a must try for everyone! 

The 2nd destination - TK Authentic Masters Singaporean Food

TK Authentic Masters Singaporean Food has been providing a variety of services—from buffets and ala carte dining to budget meal toppings and food deliveries—to the people of San Antonio Village and beyond since 2012. 

Specializing in gastronomic selection that speaks of a fusion of flavors representing various cultures from all over the world, TK offers an excellent selection of dishes that satisfy even the most discriminating palates.
Their popular offerings include Singaporean staples such as a char kway teow (stir-fry noodles), savory cereal prawn, and the refreshing Kopi O, a traditional iced coffee concoction served in Malaysia and Singapore.

The next joint was HK Roast.

This cozy hole-in-the-wall favorite along Bagtikan Street is an ode to the tai pai dong, the small open eateries found on the busy roadsides of Hong Kong.
HK Roast serves an array of Hong Kong-style comfort food like the mouth-watering roast duck, best eaten with a steaming bowl of rice and a glass of bubble milk tea. This is I recommend! I love the mouth-watering roast duck! 

The next destination of Avida Food Hunt was at Titania Wine Bar and Café 


Titania Wine Bar and Café, a fine dining restaurant inside the Titania Grand Cellar along Yakal Street in San Antonio Village, Makati.
Fun and really an educational trip ! Titania is a mecca for all kinds of wines. We were given a crash course on wine appreciation and were able to taste fine wines imported from France, Italy, Spain, Argentina, Chile, California, and Australia.

We ended on a sweet note with a sampling of assorted desserts at Sophie’s Mom. 


Nestled along the posh Santol Street, this quaint bakeshop is a dreamland for anyone with a sweet tooth. Displayed on their shelves are luscious cakes, cupcakes, mocha-truffles, mocha ice cream, and a tasty selection of specialty breads baked fresh everyday—the way Sophie’s mom, owner Marie Antoinette Rosal, makes her treats for her daughter. 

The Avida Food Hunt is the project of Avida because they want people to realize that Avida developments provide comfort and convenience to their residents.

The Avida is in the communities where everything is near, access to good life and great food and restaurants we tour are all in the vicinity of Avida Towers Asten.

Join the #AvidaFoodHunt Fun Food Tour with Chef JJ Yulo.

“OMG” moments at 'Science of Stupid' with Internet and TV sensation Ramon Bautista

“OMG” moments on the Internet! Here to explain why stunts go wrong and their videos go viral!

National Geographic Channel takes a funny look at the Internet’s most shocking viral videos in April 2014 when it premieres Science of Stupid, a show that explains why stunts go wrong when amateurs try to copy them. Each episode will examine stunt videos with disastrous endings and explain in scientific terms what factors caused the stunts to fail.

With the boom of Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, where people find it easy to post and share interesting information and content, it’s no wonder that some are foolhardy enough to try the crazy stunts that they see professionals do. Such attempts often have catastrophic results—which in turn are posted in the hopes of going viral! Science of Stupid makes sense of this nonsense by showing the necessary setup to make the stunt successful along with what the people in the video did wrong to make things go haywire. It uses visual diagrams to explain the scientific principles applied—or in these cases, not applied—during each attempt.

Each episode of Science of Stupid features a variety of stunts posted on the Internet, ranging from the dangerous to the silly. Thrill seekers collide with the invincible laws of physics as the show explains what happens when two women jump off the roof into a swimming pool, and how a potato canon can cause real damage to a man’s groin with a muzzle velocity of 300 kilometers per hour despite its innocuous name. Eating a spoonful of cinnamon may sound easy, along with other Internet myths that people might thoughtlessly want to try out for themselves, but Science of Stupid outlines the biological, physical and engineering mistakes behind each failed attempt.

Science of Stupid is a 14-part series hosted by Internet and TV sensation Ramon Bautista, whose likeable “everyman” humor will charm any viewer as he sets up each stunt and explains the science behind it. As the best example of one who has achieved Internet fame, he allows viewers to understand the skewed motivations of these wannabe daredevils while cracking jokes that will offset the intense pain and humiliation they’re about to witness on the screen. Bautista will be a witty, engaging guide through this wacky world of wipeouts, epic failure and painful realizations so viewers can learn the scientific principles that govern our physical world and see the humor in the unfortunate experiments these human “test dummies” so kindly staged for the rest of us.

Science of Stupid examines and explains the most cringe-worthy, “OMG” moments on the Internet so that we don’t have to figure them out for ourselves. As for the people who posted the videos of their failed stunts, getting the science wrong may have gotten them fame, but it also got them hurt!

WARNING: Please don’t try this at home! Now, you don’t have to because Science of Stupid explains it all for you. 

Catch Science of Stupid in April, only on National Geographic Channel!
