Samsung Digital Appliances Makes Bloggers Weekday Warriors in the Kitchen


Filipinos are known for their passion, love, and interest for good food, often going out to new restaurants to try out the best dishes. Besides enjoying the delicious flavors of these dishes, going out for meals also seems to be a handy solution for busy families, especially those who do not have enough time for meal planning and preparation. But what if families could actually prepare restaurant-quality dishes at home?

Continuing its efforts to help time-challenged Filipino families conveniently prepare nutritious and appetizing meals for the family, Samsung Digital Appliances conducted its second Cooking Workshop held at GalaStars Culinary School last April 18. Themed “Weekday Warrior: Prepare Restaurant-Quality Dishes Everyday”, this workshop enabled bloggers to personally experience how Samsung’s innovative products support people’s way of life, enriching their experiences.


Last March, Samsung kicked started the first installation of Samsung Digital Appliances Cooking Workshop in collaboration with Chef Ernest Gala. These workshops will continue to take place monthly in 2015, where various lifestyle bloggers will learn more about preparing delicious and nutritious meals with easy-to-follow recipes. Each month’s workshop will also feature a unique theme to broaden participants’ culinary experience and expertise.

“It was only the second cooking workshop, but I can say that I’m really enjoying this. All participants are game and eager to learn new recipes,” Chef Ernest said. “You can see that they are passionate about deepening their learning experience and creating good food for their family. Truly, food strengthens bonds among family, giving them more quality and memorable moments together.”

Guided by Chef Ernest, workshop participants learnt how to prepare sumptuous dishes like Pork Steaks with Mushroom Sauce, Parsleyed Baby Potatoes, and Mini S’mores, all with the use of the Samsung Smart Oven. The Smart Oven provides the most up-to-date and innovative features that can keep up with consumers’ need for healthier and easy to prepare meals while maintaining their hectic lifestyles.

“This second cooking workshop focused on meal preparation by using Samsung Smart Oven’s heating function. Through this function, Samsung redefined and simplified cooking fresh and healthy food making meal preparation easy and hassle-free,” said Marika Laciste, Product Manager for Samsung Microwave Ovens. “Also, the freshness and coolness of the food and ingredients are well-preserved long before it is cooked through the help of the Samsung Refrigerator. These fit very well with today’s fast paced world.”

Aside from convenient and hassle-free cooking, the Samsung Smart Oven is also designed for easy cleaning. The smooth ceramic interior is anti-bacterial and scratch-resistant, made to last over time. It also has a SLIM FRY technology, which allows frying dishes while using less or even no oil. This feature will be further highlighted in subsequent cooking workshops.

 
Indeed, Samsung Digital Appliances has empowered families to become warriors in the kitchen when it comes to cooking and preparing quality and healthy meals that are beyond the usual, proving that restaurant-quality meals can also be prepared at home.

“With their innovative appliances, Samsung will bring you more enjoyable home experiences, and respond to your ever-evolving family needs. I hope we can treasure and create more quality family time that’s spent bonding over good and healthy meals – effortlessly prepared with Samsung Digital Appliances,” Daye Barbatchano, Master Trainer for Samsung Digital Appliances, ended.

Samsung Digital Appliances has shown that bonding over good food doesn’t always mean going to restaurants. Its digital appliances line-up proves that creating restaurant-quality foods is no sweat at all; it can all take place right at home, in your kitchen.

Energizer is set to launch its first open run on June 27, 2015 where over 3,000 runners are expected to light up the streets of Filinvest City in Alabang. This is part of Energizer’s ongoing commitment to share positivenergy with the children of Bantay Bata 163.



According to Claire Guevarra, senior brand manager of Energizer, the company’s partnership with Bantay Bata 163 allowed them to further their thrust in giving back to the community.

"It is important to put self-improvement as your daily goal in life, but stretching your arms to further help others is one of the best indicators that we have lived fully. With our partnership with Bantay Bata 163, we were able to realize this, and we will continue to engage ourselves in a partnership that nurtures both the brand and the beneficiaries it embraces." said Guevarra.

As an open run, the participants are encouraged to keep going and run as far as they can within the 2 hours given time.  For every 3k loop that the runners will run, P100 will be donated to Bantay Bata 163 as part of its operation and medical treatment funds. With the expected runners, the Energizer Night Race Manila 2015 aims to raise P1,000,000.00 with the help of the participants who will run within the 2 hours given time.

According to Vincent Lizo, Energizer Philippines’ business director, the first open run bears truth that no competition is needed if we want to help improve the lives of children.

"Being generous is all about benefiting others more than yourself”, Lizo said. “For its part, Energizer, as a company, will recognize every runner of this event as a winner since no medal nor any form of special recognitions are needed to fulfill our responsibilities to the community," added Lizo.


Meanwhile, MJ Tiquia, Energizer brand activations manager, shared that the company will offer a different running experience to its loyal participants. This year’s race kit is priced at 700 pesos covering any distance, which includes a race singlet, race bib, Energizer headlight,  Energizer cap, and Schick Xtreme 3 Razor. It will also provide access to pre and post race activities, which will feature different bands to provide fun and entertainment. 



"The runners’ time will be monitored through the radio frequency identification (RFID), which tracks every 3k loop a runner makes. Kilometer markers in the race route are available to serve as the runners’ references,"” Tiquia said. “"For this event, runners will have to run as many loops as they can to keep on going for positivenergy."




A battery meter will light up every time a runner finishes a three-kilometer un. This battery meter will compile all the three kilometer runs every runner makes until it reaches a one million target. This will be put on view through an LED-display onstage, and in the start and finish arc.

"We would like this year’s night race to be the participants’ source of fulfillment since they are able to radiate positivenergy to the people involved," Tiquia said.

She added, “"Truly, this will not only be a venue of fun and excitement, but more importantly, a source of hope for the children of Bantay Bata 163."

"We are inviting everyone to come and join us in this event. This is a good venue to bond with families and friends through a healthy activity, and at the same time help in the common cause for the children of Bantay Bata 163," Guevarra concluded.

Registration includes both online and through official registration sites Reebok Filinvest, Trinoma and Megamall, RUNNR BGC and Royal Sporting House Glorietta.
