| Me with Eddie Garcia ( He moved because of the fans coming toward us) =) |
Honestly, I was a bit disappointed since I thought the Expo would allow people to have a free taste or samples of their cuisines. Sadly, nothing was for free except for a packet of chips and juices. The Expo had many cuisines from all over the world which include countries like the USA, Singapore and Turkey. Unless you got a loaded pocket, the expo was nothing but just a exhibition to my eyes not to my taste buds. There was a variety of goods as well which had no connection with the food expo but still managed to make its way into the halls of the SMX convention.
However, the food expo did have its positives which included having some of the best chefs in the Philippines showcasing their talent which includes giving lectures and food tips to the exhibitors. I had a few Star hotdogs one of the latest brands from Pure Foods. I waited for one exhibition and this was at the Taste Expo Stage(SMX). This happened at 2pm and the food exhibition was called A ng Sikreto ni Eddie "Manoy" Garcia Revealed' Healthy Recipes with U.S Dried Fruits & Nuts by Chef Jill Sandique and Eddie Garcia.
Yes! Eddie Garcia is a famous Filipino actor who had played in many Filipino action films and comedies. He has been in the business for almost 62 years and still continues to this day. I remember that I use to watch his movie flicks from the movie collection of my dad. It was great! He was funny and did he know how to cook! He was funny, humorous and he knew how to treat his fans. He said he was from Bicol and he asked the crowd if any of them were from Bicol and I raised my hand with a smile. Surprisingly he is from Sorsogon city if my memory serves me right is where my grandmother is from. He posed for pictures and in my opinion he saved the day WOFEX 2011.

All about La Obra ?

| Me with Steve Terada from Amercia's Best Dance Crew Season 3 Winner's QUEST CREW |
Hi! You may call me Stuck in the Philippines because I am literally stuck in the Philippines! I'm just kidding. My name is Kristian. This is my first blog and it first started out as travel blog. But then I started involving my love for the entertainment scene mainly the movies and concerts scene. Once I started blogging, I couldn't stop.
A little bit about myself. I was born and raised in Dubai (U.A.E) until I went to Arizona (U.SA). You could say I love traveling. For the record, I am a Filipino. I just lived and studied abroad. A graduate of Southern New Hampshire University and Maine High School graduate, I feel that life has more to offer. I'm a Business Administration graduate but this is something I feel that I am passionate about. I love to breakdance but I'm not getting any younger. I like traveling but that requires a lot of cash. But I love to explore.
Since I love traveling, I first started this blog as a travel blog and I was bored. Anyway, once I arrived in the Philippines, I decided to stay for awhile and adapt to the Filipino way of life. Trust me! It wasn't easy since I had to adjust from scratch! But everything turned out well.
How I started blogging? It was when a friend suggested that I should blog. My first thought of blogging is that it was a boring job and besides what do I blog about? Voila! That's how my blogging world began and now I'm hooked! Now I mainly blog about events, news, movies, concerts and travel! A lot huh? By the way, I do make some grammar mistakes on my blog but hey nobody is perfect! =)
If you have any ideas, suggestions, please don't hesitate to drop me a line. You may contact me at kristianmarfori at gmail dot com . You may call/text preferably text me at +639166464362. Please state your name, email, contact details and inquiry.
Much love!
Kristian
