BACOLOD BLOG SERIES: Where can you find real corn nachos in Bacolod?

Bacolod has been home to distinct and really good food. From chicken inasal, fresh seafood, baby back ribs to sweet treats, there is no doubt that Bacolod is a foodie's haven.

Beyond our local discoveries, there is one thing that we were missing from our favorites in Manila. We cannot find REAL CORN NACHOS in Bacolod. Every time we order nachos from restaurants, we get disappointed to be served with something like "fried wonton wrappers" (No offense to those who prefers this but we really prefer the Mexican type corn nachos.)

Thank God that Nacho King has opened their first branch here in Bacolod. Nacho King is located near SM Cinema just behind the Brownies Unlimited kiosk. 

For as low as Php 135, one can enjoy their Biggie Beefy with Salsa (which is my favorite). These are real corn nachos with lean ground meat, salsa and a generous amount of cheese sauce. 

If you want it with jalapeno and mushrooms, one can also opt for their Biggie and Jumbo Loaded Nachos. Both sizes are good for sharing. You can also build your own nachos starting at Php 45 for medium size nachos with cheese and Php 25 per additional topping. Nacho King is indeed the perfect movie time snack

For your reference, here is Nacho King's pricelist. 

And because their nachos are crunchy and really delicious, we got excited when we found out that we can also purchase nachos separately. They offer big packs of plain nacho chips for Php 110 and Php 90 for their flavored nacho chips. Flavors include cheese, chili cheese, sour cream, and barbecue. I believe this is a better option for pasalubongs plus you can make our own DIY nachos with our own preferred toppings at home. 

So, for everyone who's looking for real corn nachos like us, the search is over since Nacho King SM Bacolod is already in the city of smiles. As you can see, Val clearly enjoys his favorite snack. 

Go ahead and visit them near SM Cinema and follow them on facebook, https://www.facebook.com/NachoKingBacolod/ for more updates and upcoming promotions. 

Jason Wahler Is Going To Be A Dad

Val and I love hearing about baby stories. As a TTC couple, we get excited when we hear pregnancy announcements just like when we heard that "The Hills” star Jason Wahler and his wife Ashley, are expecting their first baby! 

Though the funny thing is, Jason and Ashley found out they were expecting on the same day that Jason's ex and former Hills co-star Lauren Conrad announced that she was pregnant.

In an even more interesting twist, the pregnancy announcement news was preceded by some crazy marriage timing as well. Ashley and Jason were married back in 2013, and the next morning, Lauren announced that she and then-boyfriend William Tell had gotten engaged. Jason called the whole debacle “so awkward”.

As if that wasn't enough baby excitement for one set of former co-stars, back on February 9, Whitney Port announced that she is also pregnant. There must be something in the water for these former co-stars, with all of them announcing back to back pregnancies. 

This is good news for Jason who has been sober since 2010 following his very well documented and tumultuous relationship with Lauren on the show, which he blamed on his alcoholism. 2017 is indeed a year of opportunities and new adventures for everyone including these first-time parents. Excited to see this new little bundle of joy. 

Congratulations Jason and Ashley! Keep the “Hills” babies coming!

Stay Beautiful with Vitamin C

We all know that Vitamin C is good for our health as it protects our immune system and helps us fight diseases but did you know that Vitamin C is also loaded with beauty benefits?

Vitamin C’s benefits extend to more than just our body health, it is also loaded with other benefits that will help us look good.

Skin Anti-Aging

Vitamin C helps the body in attaining full production of collagen- a protein that keeps the skin and other organs together, the element that is responsible for our skin’s elasticity and strength, thus, a regular intake of vitamin C equates to a younger and brighter-looking skin.

Vitamin C also helps in the creation of ligaments and scar tissue by reducing the rate of free radicals, thereby slowing the aging process and reduces the visibility of wrinkles, skin dryness and fine lines.

Benefits for Nails

The benefit of Vitamin C doesn’t stop there as the same effect extends to your nails. It helps strengthens the connective tissues that fortifies the nail bed and helps our nail to grow faster. It also prevents hang nails by assisting collagen formation.

Hair health

Vitamin C plays a pivotal role in growing and strengthening our hair as it helps in absorbing Iron – an element that keeps our hair strong and healthy. And as mentioned earlier, it also help absorb collagen that stimulates the hair follicles which helps your hair grow faster.

In achieving the above benefits, an optimum level of Vitamin C is needed. 

Bewell-C (Sodium Ascorbate) contains all the vitamin C your body needs minus the acidity.  Bewell-C (Sodium Ascorbate) is a non-acidic Vitamin C supplement that is rapidly gaining popularity among the public as a high quality and effective brand. Bewell-C is the next generation vitamin C that provides all the benefits of vitamin C without the risk of hyperacidity.

For those who need both Vitamin C and Calcium, Bewell-C plus calcium is also available in the market. Just like Bewell-C, this product also uses non-acidic vitamin C paired with organic calcium fortified with Vitamin D for stronger bones and teeth.

Bewell-C and Bewell-C Plus Calcium is available in all leading drugstores nationwide and on Lazada. For more updates, follow them in facebook.

Love Your Hair with Novuhair

They say that LOVE IS THE HAIR! Whether you agree or not, I have always believe that everyday is the best time to celebrate love. And this is not just about our love for our special someone but our love for everything and everyone including ourselves. 

This February, take time to take care of your own appearance and since our hair is on top of our body, it is pertinent that we start with it. 

Here are a few tips in maintaining a healthy hair.

·         Observe good hygiene all the time – regularly wash your hair to remove dirt and grimes

·         Be extra careful whenever combing your wet hair – your hair is vulnerable to breakage during this period.

·         Use towel to dry off your hair after shower – Using hair dryer can cause damage to your hair; if you must use the heat then do so sparingly.

·         Eat the proper nutrition- Our hair is also dependent on what we eat. Iron-rich food and protein strengthens your hair.

·         Have enough sleep – Lack of sleep can cause hair loss. Sleeping allows our hair to repair and regenerate. Changes in our sleeping patterns have shown to affect our body’s immune and hormone function, as well as our physical and mental stamina. Our hair is very sensitive to these changes within the body.

·         Pamper your hair - Give your hair a proper massage with the nutrients it needs.
