If you’re hungering for some tasty morsels but can’t decide which, it’s time to rediscover and revisit My South Hall, a casual dining venue that’s home to your most sought-after cuisines under one roof.

Seafood lovers will be happy to get hooked by Fish & Co’s Fish & Chips along with other fresh salads and starters, shareable platters, pastas and some meaty offerings so carnivores are not left behind.

Gear up and go loco with the famous fire-grilled chicken and other Mexican cantina items at El Pollo Loco. And if you’re craving for sweet and satisfying donuts, there’s the much-raved-about Randy’s Donuts with its large, fluffy, and airy saccharine bites in different flavors—from signature classic, to premium, and deluxe.

Talk about excitement and variety and My South Hall has got you covered with the introduction of new and exciting restaurant concepts that are a delight to explore.

Celebration of Mediterranean food, culture

When it comes to Mediterranean food and culture, a new level of experience awaits. As one of the highly influential types of cuisine primarily for its abundant use of plant-based ingredients, it’s also widely celebrated for using the century-old olive oil in its various recipes. From fresh salads, flavorful dips, and sauces, to made-from-scratch stews and soups, olive oil is a staple ingredient that makes the Mediterranean one of the healthiest in the world.

As a market leader of olive oil and Mediterranean products in the Philippines, Doña Elena proudly celebrates its rich heritage of flavor and passion in a one-night exclusive event attended by VIP guests from Fly Ace Corporation‘s national trade partners and media. The sensational evening celebrates the rich heritage of Mediterranean flavors and Spain’s old-world culinary history, with Gusto as the main theme to highlight Doña Elena’s success in the country.

A true feast for the senses, the journey begins with a buffet featuring famous tapas specialties. A culinary tradition in Spain celebrated in different parts of the world, the section is a grand display of assorted meats, cheeses, nuts, crackers, and a voluptuous whole Iberico Ham as the iconic centerpiece.

The sit-down buffet dinner is a gastronomic journey that begins with an appetizer trio, which is a rendition of bite-sized tuna tartare in pani puri, eggplant caviar, and grilled pulpo. Laden in chimichurri and bonito aioli sauces, these dishes are generously infused with Doña Elena olive oil to enliven their Mediterranean flavor.

Nothing beats a comforting Tomato Soup with simple and quality ingredients to bring to life its heartwarming flavor. Smooth and creamy, it’s a welcoming treat made from a puree with Doña Elena diced tomatoes and Doña Elena olive oil. Collaborating for the restaurateur and Terraza Martinez Executive Chef Luis Martinez. The Presa Iberica de Cerdo is a buttery soft premium pork tenderloin and an epic favorite for its next-level marbling. Followed by the show-stopping duck confit, foie gras, and Spanish Bomba Rice dish, reflecting Chef Luis’ Valencian roots.

“The main course elegantly combines the flavorful tradition of passionate Spanish cuisine and commitment to quality ingredients,” stated Chef Luis.

What better way to end the feast than a classic favorite Basque Cheesecake with added apricot and pistachio for a balance of fruity and nutty taste? Its rich caramel crust and creamy texture are a crowd favorite and captivate the sweet spot of dessert lovers.

As a tribute to Spain’s art, culture, and music, guests were treated to an exclusive Flamenco show from an ensemble flown directly from Spain. “Flamenco is considered one of the icons of Spanish culture, which evokes so much passion and energy. Every stomp, strum of the guitar, and clap of the singer’s hands is a testament to Spain’s rich history and complex roots. We just knew that our special dinner is best enjoyed with one of Spain’s most exhilarating art forms to give a full experience,” stated Marketing Director Zen Prudentino.

A trusted name in the Philippines, Doña Elena is a household staple with a wide selection of Mediterranean products. Doña Elena Olive Oil was first introduced in the Philippines with its three variants - extra virgin, pure, and pomace. Since then, the brand has continuously expanded its product range with Mediterranean staples, sourced from Spain and all over the world, and brought to the Filipino household.

Win in both life and love

“Innovation with a purpose.” That is the mantra that Kenny Rogers Roasters has been living by with every launch of new marketing campaigns. Undoubtedly, this innovation-centric approach has also proven to be impactful and compelling among customers and stakeholders as the brand won three highly-coveted Anvil recognitions at the recently concluded 59th Anvil Awards. 

Presented annually by the Public Relations Society of the Philippines (PRSP), the Anvil Awards is the symbol of excellence in Public Relations. It awards outstanding public relations programs, tools and practitioners after careful screening by select PR professionals and judging by a distinguished multi-sectoral jury. 

Kenny Rogers Roasters won two awards under the PR programs category and one award under the PR tools category as a result of the team’s persistence to offer their customers innovative and memorable experiences. 

For the PR Programs (Cause-related/Public Awareness/Advocacy) category, The Kenny Rogers Roasters Mango Habanero Farmvocacy  won the Silver Anvil Award as the campaign has proven the importance of supporting local farmers with the implementation of Kenny Rogers Roasters’ Farmvocacy for the second year in a row. 

Another campaign that won a Silver Anvil for the same category is the Kenny Rogers Roasters’ Truffle Collection Influencer Seeding Campaign. With an entry entitled “Influencing Palates: Kenny Rogers Roasters Introduces Truffle Exclusive Influencer Seeding Initiatives,” the brand strategically partnered with micro influencers for their Truffle Collection and Valentine’s Day campaigns to showcase their luxurious Truffle Collection. The authenticity and sincerity of these influencers have helped Kenny Rogers Roasters achieve a successful campaign that engaged and resonated with the consumers as well as helped contribute to the brand’s substantial uplift in sales. 

Lastly, under the PR Tools (Special Events) category, the famous roasted chicken restaurant chain won another Silver Anvil for the Kenny Rogers 3D Billboard Launch. The biggest and first ever 3D billboard in EDSA by any restaurant chain in the country, the marketing tool was an innovative way to highlight the brand’s deliciously healthy menu offerings by having a giant spectacle of their signature roaster chicken, tender ribs, and side dishes along the busiest highway in Metro Manila.

“It’s truly an honor to win these awards as these are a testament of the hard work and dedication of the team that continuously ensures Kenny Rogers Roasters is an exciting and relevant brand among customers. We’re excited for what’s in store and we are committed to continuous growth and innovation,” said Lorent Adrias, Kenny Rogers Roasters marketing director. 

For the passionate team behind Kenny Rogers Roasters, these recognitions from the prestigious Anvil Awards only serve to strengthen their commitment to deliver exceptional dining experiences while upholding the highest standards of quality, flavor, and service.

A post shared by M&M’S (@mmschocolate)

M&M’s is embarking on a colourful and fun-filled journey with the launch of its “Fun for All” campaign across Asia. This initiative aims to foster inclusivity and create memorable moments of fun together. The candy brand’s legacy is built on more than 80 years of bringing family and friends together with its bite-sized colourful candies and flavors.

Today, M&M’s is evolving into a brand that is built on purpose which promises to create colourful fun for all so that everyone has the right to enjoy moments of happiness and feel they belong. This newfound purpose is especially significant for the brand, as the state of mental health and well-being has become a pressing issue.

According to studies, 20% of adults over 60 years old face social isolation, with 25% of millennials have no acquaintances and 50% of Gen Zs experience intense social isolation. These people lack the drive to make the move to feel included, which places them at risk of experiencing extreme bouts of loneliness. Loneliness, especially with the pressure of coping with work and life commitments, can lead to people postponing fun.

With these in mind, the brand aims to help ensure that everyone has access to experiences where they feel they belong. “Fun for All” is a year-long campaign that will run concurrently in seven markets across Asia, including Malaysia, Taiwan, South Korea, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam, promising an exhilarating series of fun activities both on-ground and digitally. Set to ignite the spirit of inclusive fun through social connections, shared experiences and story-telling, the brand aims to surprise and delight with a release of a new brand film titled “The Hangout That Finally Happened," followed by a social contest with attractive prizes, and culminating in an on-ground activation in Malaysia and the Philippines.

“We’re thrilled to bring the brand purpose to life, an experience that fans will be able to enjoy across multiple touchpoints in the region,” said Chaliya Suchato, Strategic Demand Director, Mars Wrigley Asia. “From fresh social and digital content to drive screen time and snacking occasions, and special M&M’s seasonal and gifting celebrations across retail and digital channels, we’ll incorporate our purpose of Fun for All” into all that we do to inspire moments of everyday happiness and belonging."

In the Philippines, the brand will be inspiring connection and fun during Valentine's with its "Love For All" campaign. Fans will have access to a pop-up store from a truck in Metro Manila, complete with a photo studio, an opportunity to dedicate a harana, and a Love For All Challenge with their loved ones.

The brand is also expanding its crew with the inclusion of a new character – Purple – in changes to the brand’s look and feel as part of its evolution. Representing acceptance and inclusivity, she is known for her charm and quirky nature. With her keen self-awareness, she becomes the natural catalyst that brings inclusive fun and everyone together.

Show your overflowing love 

Pinoys go above and beyond to express their affection. From simple, thoughtful gifts and heartwarming letters to even big, heartfelt gestures, Pinoys never cease to amaze with their unique and overflowing ways to celebrate their loved ones.

This Valentine’s season, Goldilocks is ready to turn up the love meter, as it makes this celebration much sweeter!

Beyond romance, Goldilocks is all about celebrating love in all forms. Be it the cozy warmth of familial bonds, the laughter shared among friends, or even the well-deserved embrace of self-love, they surely know that love knows no bounds.

And what better way to mark this season of togetherness than with the brand that has been celebrating with us for decades?

At the center of this occasion is Goldilocks’ newest delectable offering, the Choco Caramel Valentine. This heart-shaped moist chocolate cake is draped in a rich caramel embrace and crowned with delicate rosettes. For only P520, every bite is a journey into the heart of sweet, timeless love.

So whether you're celebrating Valentine’s Day with your significant other, your family, your friends, or even just with yourself, the Choco Caramel Valentine is the perfect cake to celebrate all kinds of love on this memorable and sweet occasion.

For healthy, kissable lips

Elevate your hair this 2024

For many of us, the new year represents a time of reinvention and bidding farewell to things that no longer bring you joy - such as traditional hair tools that may leave your hair feeling dry, damaged, and lifeless. To help elevate your hair this 2024, L'Oréal Professionnel has a revolutionary flat iron and styling tool for all your styling needs – the SteamPod 3.0.

Using patented steam technology, the SteamPod 3.0 helps you achieve the perfect hair for you - natural and soft straight, bouncy and curly, or naturally wavy. This technology boosts the performance of the heating plates to effortlessly glide through hair without tugging or dragging, helping to reduce split ends for a shiny, healthy looking finish. Say goodbye to frizz and hello to flawless locks with this professional-level device.

The SteamPod 3.0 also boasts 78% less hair damage* compared to regular irons, making it a healthier option for your hair. Plus, its 2x faster and smoother when it comes to styling, so you can achieve your desired look in half the time.

Visit L’Oréal Professionnel’s partner salons to experience the magic firsthand, or purchase the tool on its official Lazada Flagship Store to get that amazing transformation from the comfort of your own home.

At CES 2024, the L’Oréal Groupe unveiled a next-generation hair drying tool designed with professional stylists for both beauty professionals and consumers at home: AirLight Pro. Developed in partnership with Zuvi, a hardware startup company established by drone engineers and leading scientists, AirLight Pro uses a combination of infrared-light technology and wind to care for the hair with visually smoother and hydrated hair while also drying hair faster with optimized heat flow across multiple hair types, and up to 31% less energy consumption.

Nicolas Hieronimus, CEO of the L’Oréal Groupe, revealed the CES 2024 Innovation Award-Winning technology and detailed the company’s strategic investments in Beauty Tech during his opening morning keynote in the Palazzo Ballroom at the Venetian in Las Vegas, Nevada.

“For 115 years, L’Oréal has been leveraging science to innovate and provide consumers with unforgettable beauty experiences that fulfill their individual beauty aspirations. With AirLight Pro, in partnership with Zuvi, we prove that technology can augment beauty performance, caring for multiple hair needs, and reduce its environmental impact. That’s the future of beauty we are aiming to create.”

L’Oréal, a scientific and industry expert in haircare from the cellular level to the fiber for every hair type (curly, straight, and coily), partnered with hardware startup Zuvi to develop and deliver a next-generation hair drying tool for beauty professionals and then to consumers worldwide that focuses on caring for the hair through breakthrough technology.

“Zuvi’s mission is to leave the world better than we found it by disrupting technologies and innovating for the future,” said Mingyu Wang, Founder and CEO of Zuvi. “With our expertise in optics, aerodynamics, and consumer electronics design, we have created an exceptional product. We’re immensely proud of the work we’ve done to date and now to have a partner like L’Oréal, a company with more than 100 years of expertise in haircare and beauty, to take our products to the next level. Together, we are and will continue to create ground-breaking beauty technologies.”

Applying their patented LightCare technology to a blow-dryer, Zuvi developed a first-generation product that uses infrared light and high-speed wind to efficiently dry water on the hair surface, which leaves internal moisture in hair strands. 

A team of over 100 engineers, designers, hairdressers, and scientists from L’Oréal’s Research & Innovation Division and Zuvi collaborated on AirLight Pro’s cutting-edge industrial design to develop a professional-grade hair drying tool that breaks through barriers of performance. AirLight Pro delivers up to 33% more hydrated hair, up to 59% visually smoother hair, faster drying times, and an enhanced user experience based on feedback from leading professional stylists. It is also able to deliver up to 31% less energy consumption.

Unlike conventional heating hair dryers with only thermal rods, AirLight Pro is equipped with a special 17-blade, high-speed motor and patented* infrared technology powered by tungsten–halogen bulbs designed for fast hair drying without excessive heat. By efficiently drying water on the hair surface, hair is left with internal moisture in the strand resulting in smooth, shiny hair.
 
Tested by L’Oréal on more than 500 people across multiple hair types, AirLight Pro is designed to adapt to the needs of the individual user. The hardware, firmware, and app work seamlessly to make it possible for every user to customize the settings for their individual needs.

“For over a decade, L’Oréal Research and Innovation has been creating a new Beauty Science powered by Technology: Augmented Beauty. Technology that truly answers age-old consumer needs with unparalleled results,” said Barbara Lavernos, Deputy CEO in charge of Research, Innovation and Technology at L’Oréal. “AirLight Pro, with over 150 patents filed, perfectly embodies this breakthrough in beauty by, for the first time, bringing a solution for drying while caring for the hair as well as the planet.” 

L’Oréal made a minority investment in Zuvi through its corporate venture fund, BOLD Business Opportunities for L’Oréal Development.

AirLight Pro will be launched in the United States by its salon professional brand, L’Oréal Professionnel, in 2024 to both beauty professionals and consumers.

“As the historical brand leader and trusted partner of hairstylists since 1909, L’Oréal Professionnel has always elevated the professional industry with pioneering innovations,” said Anne Machet, General Manager for L'Oréal Professionnel. “We’re thrilled to partner with Zuvi and invent the new generation of hair dryer. Powered with infrared light, AirLight Pro offers superior professional performance for all hair types, with significantly reduced energy consumption. The new perfect companion for all hairstylists!”

Make your mark in self-love

In a rapidly evolving professional landscape, where technology, communication, and expectations are in constant flux, it is crucial for Gen Z to equip themselves with the knowledge and skills needed to thrive. Presenting your best self is paramount to creating a long-lasting impression that helps you navigate the modern workplace.

But in a 2020 report published by Cigna, it was revealed that more than seven in 10 Gen Z respondents sometimes or always feel alone in their workplace, while 72% admit to occasional shyness, and 71% believe that not everyone truly gets them. These findings underscore the importance of self-confidence in the lives of Gen Z individuals, as they often grapple with feelings of isolation and a sense of being misunderstood as they venture onto their professional path.

With personal growth and self-presentation as the cornerstones of Gen Zs journey toward building self-confidence, they seek a product companion that can boost their self-esteem to engage in various pursuits while looking and feeling their best. Safeguard Arctic Fresh and Lemon Fresh offer you the ultimate protection and freshness, your commitment to self-improvement will be your shield against the challenges that come your way.  It is designed to ensure you stay fresh and confident throughout the day as it fights against body-odor causing germs. What sets it apart is the ultimate freshness it brings, with its cooling senation and delightful scent experience in the shower, helping you kick off your day feeling revitalized and ready to conquer your goals.
