Cowboy Grills since 1994 celebrates its 24 years of Great place, great food


Last May 16, 2018 Cowboy Grill Malate Branch - cowboy Grill showcase the 24 meals in an intimate gathering together with some friends in the media and food bloggers.




It's been a while since the last time I visited Cowboy Grill. It was during our College day back in 2002. It was my first time also to experience hanging out with friends. Drinking and Dancing while enjoying good food and great music. 

Time is really so fast and now it's already 24 years of successful business. That proves that Cowboy Grill is an extraordinary lair for everyone.

If there is one resto bar in the Metro that most of us can relate to, because of the unforgettable night out gimmicks and entertainment with family and friends, it is the Cowboy Grill. 

The Cowboy Grill reminds us of the countless drinking sprees, gigs of our favorite bands, celebrations of all the occasions we can name, the true meaning of "barkadahan", and the friendship and love, which were developed while having fun at Cowboy Grill. 

For 24 years it has stood the test of time, witnessed a lot of important events in our lives, and until now it is our reliable partner in relishing fun and entertainment with the people we love. 

Cowboy Grill pays it forward with 24@24
Cowboy Grill for 24 years has been a part of many people's memories - be it a failure, heartaches, joys, and triumphs. But the most important fact is whenever you enter Cowboy Grill, you will begin to forget other things because, in Cowboy Grill, it is all about fun and entertainment.


Humble beginnings 

Twenty-four years ago. Cowboy Grill was established just to accommodate the customers of a sister company who were looking for live band shows and at the same time enjoy palatable dishes. Its first branch opened in the busy street of Mabini, Ermita, Manila, which easily gained a lot of following. With its spacious entertainment area, good sound system, reliable and good-looking crew and staff, and of course excellent show bands. Cowboy Grill became the leading entertainment spot in the Metro. "As our name implies, "Cowboy," our resto bar is the place of people who easily get along with others. In other words, madaling or magaling makisama, walang kiyeme," said Mr. Caasi Chief Operating Officer of Cowboy Grill. 

Cowboy Grill with its new and better concept on how to keep its customers happy, Cowboy Grill became a hit to those who enjoy music, dancing and of course great food. It grew steadily and became the benchmark of other companies that venture into this kind of business. 

"Because of its large seating capacity. Cowboy Grill serves as a mini concert venue to many aspiring entertainment groups. As a matter of fact, a number of Pinoy bands started with us, and we are very proud of it because it's with us where they have nurtured their talents," added Mr.Pili Operation Manager. 

The smallest branch of Cowboy Grill can accommodate at least 300 people and the biggest can seat at least 1000. Currently, it has 4 branches located in Mabini and Malate, Manila; Las Pinas City and Delta Quezon City. 

Aside from the nightly band shows, which play your favorite R&B, Jazz, Rock, Slow Rock, and even Hip-hop music. Cowboy Grill can also host your important occasions and get together. It offers catering and function and now delivery services and other party needs. 

"You can avail of their great food from 10am to 6am every day through their Hot and Ready Meals for delivery. You can order their meals using the Honest Bee app.

Great place, great food 

Though Cowboy Grill has been known for its great fun and entertainment, it is also a place for people who are looking for great-tasting food. The 24 years it's been in the industry proved that Cowboy Grill is not just about bands, beers and cocktails but scrumptious dishes as well that can be enjoyed by everyone. 

Many of its customers can swear by their mouth-watering dishes that are both best for pulutan or viand like its sisig, caldereta, lechon kawali and fried chicken

Since it started operation back in the 90s, Cowboy Grill gained the following of many foodies because of its great gastronomic fares. Cowboy Grill serves the usual Filipino dishes but unlike other resto bars, it has retained the original taste of every dish.

LG SHOWS HOW DAILY LIFE CAN BE EASIER AT INNOFEST ASIA 2018


 
InnoFest has come home. After launching show-stopping events in South Africa and France, LG Electronics brought its annual InnoFest roadshow to Asia from April 23 to 25. Held at the new LG Science Park in Seoul, South Korea, InnoFest Asia 2018 welcomed over 250 representatives from LG, its distribution / retail partners and members of the media from all over the region.
 


This year’s event, themed “An Invitation to the AI Home That Thinks of You,” introduced LG’s range of smart appliances equipped with LG’s SmartThinQ, the brand’s signature AI technology, and high-tech innovations aimed at making daily life easier and more convenient for the consumer. Guests were able to experience these products for themselves in a set-up designed to emulate a natural home environment. A mock living room, kitchen, and laundry room a displayed a variety of products embedded with AI technology and designed to seamlessly integrate into everyday life.
 

 
The mock kitchen highlighted LG’s latest InstaView Door-in-Door fridge technology, now applied to Multi-Door refrigerators. Featuring a sleek and elegant stainless steel design, LG’s InstaView Door-in-Door refrigerators come with a glass panel that illuminates the interior with two simple knocks so users can conveniently scan the contents for faster and easier access to their favorite drinks and snacks. This distinctive feature offers an energy-efficient and comfortable way to look inside without opening the appliance door, leading to less cold air escaping and fresher food for longer.
 


 
Transforming consumers’ kitchen experience even more, the InstaView Door-in-Door refrigerator is equipped with LG’s SmartThinQ—users can remotely control their refrigerator with their smartphone, enabling them to set the refrigerator temperature and diagnose appliance problems on a connected application. This smart appliance can also call up recipes based on the ingredients inside the refrigerator, and relay instructions to LG smart ovens, which automatically adjusts cooking setting after receiving the recipe.
 

 
From the kitchen, guests can move on to a makeshift laundry room to experience the TWINWash washing machine, a convenient and time-saving appliance with both a main washer and mini washer that makes it possible to wash two loads of laundry simultaneously. The TWINWash washing machine also comes fully equipped with Wi-Fi connectivity, enabling users to easily control and remotely monitor their appliance, download wash cycles and track energy use.
 

 
In the living room, users were introduced to the pride and joy of LG’s Home Entertainment division: the newest OLED TV model. Equipped with LG's α (Alpha) 9 intelligent processor, LG’s OLED TV offer enhanced picture quality and true-to-life colors from virtually any viewing angle. To complement this superior image rendering feature, LG’s OLED TVs also support Dolby Atmos for an immersive audio-visual experience. AI functionality is also embedded in the sets—viewers can speak directly into the remote control to enjoy the latest voice assistant technology. LG’s ThinQ AI-enabled TVs also use services based on the Electronic Program Guide (EPG) to deliver real-time information and locate channels offering desired content. Viewers can say “search for this movie’s soundtrack” or “turn off the TV when this program is over” without repeating the program’s title or specifying a time.
 

“LG InnoFest is the perfect opportunity to introduce our unique ThinQ AI-enabled products to our partners in key regions. AI technology is fast becoming a part of our world but the realization of how fast this revolution is coming is still unrealized by many consumers. InnoFest allows us to bring our partners — who are engaging local customers on a daily basis — into the fold.” ~Han Chang-hee, vice president of LG’s Global Marketing Center.


InnoFest Asia 2018 also featured zones that showcased LG’s latest range of smart home appliances (refrigerators, washing machines, vacuum, dishwashers, microwave ovens and airconditioners), the brand’s energy-saving inverter technology, and its array of premium TVs including SUPER UHD models.

ISLAS PINAS an indoor “Filipino Food & Heritage Village” Now open at the DoubleDragon Plaza, DD Meridian Park

June 07, 2018 @ Double Dragon Meridian Plaza - Islas Pinas a food and heritage village was formally introduces and open its store to the public later in the evening as it's served first for the Media launch started on 11 am.

Media press, Bloggers, and employees of Double Dragon got the first opportunity to taste the extraordinary dining experience that Islas Pinas offer.

Before the program starts, we are entertained by the music and dance play inspired by our native cultural dance from Mindanao.


Come let me take you to a tour inside of the Isla Pinas. Watch this short video I spotted around and the highlights of the event.

ISLAS PINAS is the main anchor of DoubleDragon Plaza, which forms part of the 4.8 Hectare DD Meridian Park commercial and office complex.

Designed to showcase the abundance and vibrancy of the Filipino culture, this new establishment lets guests discover, explore and experience the Philippines’s heritage sites, natural resources, hospitality and most importantly, its cuisine.

The result of collaboration between DoubleDragon Group and Chef Margarita Forés, Islas Pinas is a project that aims to inspire a love for the Philippines and to cultivate patriotism by showcasing the country’s beautiful sites and diverse regional cuisines. With a seating capacity of over 700 seats in an expansive 2,500 square meter space, Islas Pinas is the perfect place to give visitors a taste of the best that the Philippines has to offer.
Ms. Margarita Fores at the middle

“Because of the ideal location of DoubleDragon Plaza at DD Meridian Park – our close proximity to the airport terminals and being only about 5 minutes away from NAIA X – we believe ISLAS PINAS will become a must-visit stopover for both domestic and international tourists visiting the capital,” said DoubleDragon's Chairman Edgar Injap Sia II.

ISLAS PINAS also hosts an authentic Sarao Jeepney, which for many generations became the king of the Philippine streets, especially in the countryside.

“DoubleDragon has always believed in embarking on projects with relevance. We believe Islas Pinas will be a landmark in the country and will showcase the diversity not only of our cuisine and handicrafts but also our landscape and architecture brought about by the rich heritage and culture of the country,” says DoubleDragon’s Chief Investment Officer Hannah Yulo.

At the helm of this project is none other than Asia’s Best Female Chef of 2016, Margarita A. Forés whose mission is to bring Filipino cuisine to global prominence. Thus, Islas Pinas is a vision coming to life for her, where Filipino food is not just on the sidelines but at the center stage.

“This is an absolute dream project for me that has come at such a perfect time,” said Forés. “I give my thanks to then-Undersecretary of Agriculture, now Secretary of Tourism Berna R. Puyat, for putting me together with the DoubleDragon group, who was looking for someone to operate this amazing Islas Pinas project about half a year ago. This fast-tracked such a blessed opportunity to continue pushing my biggest advocacy – that of helping to promote the best our country – our cuisine, ingredients, farers, artisan producers and home cooks from Batanes to Jolo – in the best way I can!”

It is her aim for guests to experience the Philippines with their five senses and beyond. Thus, aside from the culinary delights and a picturesque interior design worthy of Instagram posts, the venue will also feature modern and traditional cultural performances and games to ensure a fun and truly Pinoy ambiance.

SINAG, the Tagalog word for ‘ray of light’ offers all-day Filipino breakfast favorites like our TAPSILOG (TAPa – salted beef, SInangag – fried rice and ItLOG – fried egg) and Batchoy, an Ilonggo noodle soup with pork offal, crushed pork cracklings and beef loin.

ALAMAT or legend, tells the story of the different regions of the Philippines through its signature dishes. BILAO is coined after the woven winnowing basket where comfort snacks like pansit (fried noodles) and puto (rice cakes) are usually served, while PANADERYA offers neighborhood bakery favorites such as pan de sal and kalihim. TUSOK-TUSOK, on the other hand, offers urban street food finds like barbecue on stick, isaw (grilled chicken intestine) and kwek-kwek (fried quail eggs). 

PANULAK or beverage is where the samalamig (cold drinks with different flavors) will be available. Lastly, PAMPANG or shore will allow guests to enjoy chosen fresh catch cooked to their preference.

All these will be available daily, without the scorching heat and pollution as space is fully airconditioned. Located at the bustling DD Meridian Park in the Bay Area along EDSA Extension and Macapagal Avenue, Islas Pinas can be easily accessed using both private and public transportation.

Islas Pinas, an indoor “Filipino Food & Heritage Village” and a new, distinct destination for both local and international guests, is now open at the DoubleDragon Plaza, DD Meridian Park, Macapagal Avenue corner EDSA Extension, Bay Area, Pasay City, Metro Manila.

PURATOS PHILIPPINES 
The Filipino Baker's Reliable Partner in Innovation 

Baking bread is as old as humanity itself. It is a tradition, a heritage. Bread, like all foods, evolves. And bakery products these days are no longer the sole territory of traditional bakers. Competition from other food categories is forcing the industry to pay more attention to new demands from consumers and retailers alike. The search for convenience, changing eating patterns, increased health concerns are just a few examples of the challenges that confront today's bakers. 

As ever, Puratos is there to work alongside bakers to find answers to these new questions. Puratos was one of the first ingredient companies to recognize the unlimited richness of the baking tradition. Its humble beginnings as an ice cream manufacturer in Brussels, Belgium led the way toward a bigger vision. With the invention of the first complete bread improver in 1953, the company began its mission to help bakers manage and control their passion. Over the last 50 years, Puratos has continuously introduced new technologies. Improvers, composed of ferments, emulsifiers, and enzymes, are now regular ingredients in bakers' recipes. And all to offer them absolute peace of mind, so they can fully enjoy their profession. 

Now present in over 100 countries worldwide, Puratos opened its doors to the Philippine market in 1983 providing a small range of improvers and confectionery products in the Metro Manila area. 

It was in 1988 that Puratos Philippines, Inc. was established creating and producing all you need from emulsifiers, enzymes, sourdoughs, yeasts, bread improvers and mixes. Today, Puratos remains one of the few groups in the world to have expertise in all areas of bakery technology servicing major baking corporations, five-star hotels, catering companies, supermarkets and hundreds of big and small bakeries all over the country. With its strategic brands- Puratos for bakery and patisserie ingredients, and Belcolade for real Belgian chocolate, Puratos Philippines is able to help Filipino bakers delight their customers every step of the way. 

Now on its 30th year, Puratos Philippines continues to be the Filipino baker's reliable partner in innovation. Over the years, Puratos has helped bakers, patissiers, and chocolatiers across the country to be successful with their business. Through seminars and demonstrations being conduct regularly in Metro Manila and in major provinces, the Filipino bakers are kept informed of the latest solution trends in the baking industry. Puratos' worldwide presence allows a constant exchange among its demonstrators, salesmen, marketing, and research & development people which enable them to share best practices, update recipes, apply new techniques and create new concepts. Most often, Puratos professionals are sent abroad to be trained in their respective fields. The company invests in its people; they consider them as their most valuable asset. The diversity of its people is one of the company's greatest strengths. But it is by believing in the same values that Puratos can truly deliver the best for their customers. As reliable partners, Puratos believes in team spirit, ethics and quality as essential parts of the way business is conducted. To provide innovation, Puratos believes in passion to help customers, courage to seize opportunities and vision to build on experience and to search eagerly for new horizons. All this with the aim of helping customers prepare for an ever-changing future.
