Chef JP Anglo sets the right mood for Russell Hobbs Mood Food Cookbook





Certain food affects once mood. For instance, did you know that the food you eat may also enhance the experience for a romantic evening? Or that chocolate you are about to eat contains a stimulant called phenylethylamine that creates a feeling of excitement. Our comfort food makes us happy and better right after consuming it. That bowl of "ramen" which is one of my favorite comfort food calms and stimulate my nerves after a hard day's work.



Russell Hobbs, a UK global leader in small kitchen appliances teams up with Chef JP Anglo, the famous celebrity chef behind "Sarsa Kitchen" by launching Mood Food Cookbook at Top Shelf Fully Booked Bonifacio High Street last April 29. The cookbook sets the mood for the mouthwatering recipes for every kind of emotion and ambience that can easily be done in a compact, modern kitchen. The cookbook also showcases how simple recipes can become gustatory delights that can enhance the mood and the whole dining experience at the comfort of one’s home.

Chef JP Anglo cooked the delicious "lechon kawali" and "panini" using the Russell Hobbs Purifry and Panini Maker.

The Purifry does not require oil to heat, which in-turn reduces the cooking time. You can roast and bake with it,  you can cook meat, fish and vegetables separately.



While our table concocted  the healthiest fruity smoothie that I loved using Russell Hobbs Fruit blender. The Strawberry citrus smoothie has a twist of lemon and orange. It smells and tastes healthy just the way I liked my drink in the morning.





“Ever wondered why some dishes are called comfort food? It plays a crucial role in our lives – it does not only provide sustenance, it can also help in triggering the moods and emotions that we have,” said Chef JP Anglo, the man behind the recipes in the book. “With Mood Food, we will show everyone how easy it is to prepare food that would suit or enhance their moods. And with the help of Russell Hobbs, the dishes are not only a burst of flavors, but also a treat for the eyes.”
Chef JP Anglo gamely signed his book for us after the event. As I flipped around pages, I drooled at the sight of the food being presented. It already set the mood and mode for dining out later.




With the Russell Hobbs’ Mood Food cookbook. Aside from recipes, the cookbook also showcases the various small appliances from Russell Hobbs that elevate cooking and food preparation at home.
“Preparing food can be a daunting task without the proper equipment. With Russell Hobbs’ small kitchen appliances, everyone can be an expert in the kitchen preparing scrumptious dishes in the comfort of their own homes,” said Clarence Cu, president and CEO of TOCOMS, the exclusive distributor of Russell Hobbs in the Philippines. “Our goal is to bring the comforts of a modern, compact kitchen to every household.”

With the Russell Hobbs’ Mood Food cookbook and the line of Russell Hobbs small appliances, eating at home will never be the same. Gone are the days of guilt-laden takeout or having pizza every night, with Russell Hobbs, modern life has never felt more homey.

Russell Hobbs’ exquisite line of small kitchen appliances is now available at all leading appliance and department stores nationwide. For more details and updates, follow Russell Hobbs Philippines at www.facebook.com/russellhobbsph.

No more bad hair day for UK hair grooming brand Remington



I cant leave the house without blow drying my hair, but since my blow dryer needs repair, I just rely on my electric fan to dry my long locks , and it takes time and styling to do just that. That's why Im on the look out for a blow dryer or hair straightener to make it sleek and smooth.



Remington recently launched its hair grooming products last April 21, at Green Sun, Makati. Remington is a leading supplier of haircare, female depilation, grooming and shaving products.



 Leaving the house without that perfectly coifed or sleek straight hair, or smooth underarms among girls, and a perpetual 5 o’clock shadow among guys is no longer an option. Having perfect hair, or lack of it, has become an essential in how the world gets ready



Achieving this perfection is now feasible anytime. UK hair grooming brand Remington has finally reached the Philippines, complete with its strong array of personal care small appliances for hair care, grooming, depilation, and shaving.

“We are excited to bring to the Philippines the most trusted brand in hair care, grooming, depilation, and shaving. Remington is a brand that has been around for more than 70 years, in 85 countries. Remington products are not just about exceptional quality, it brings forth a transformation for its users – giving them the confidence that comes from looking their best and being ready for anything,” said Clarence Cu, president of Tocoms Philippines, the exclusive distributor of Remington.

Started in 1937, the Remington brand first rolled out shavers for women who wanted to keep their legs and underarms hair-free without having to pluck – an extremely tedious task to be done regularly. When it introduced plug-free shavers in 1960, Remington established itself as a pioneer in the hair grooming technology.

In the last decade, Remington launched the world’s first body hair trimmer, an Intense Pulse Light machine for home use, and a touch-control beard trimmer.
The product line of Remington for shaving is one of the most popular in the world. Developed in its research and development facilities in the United States and Europe, Remington shavers are known to be innovative and highly-efficient.

The Remington grooming line for men includes shavers and body hair trimmers that have been designed to deliver several options for shaving lengths – from smooth to a one-inch stubble. Designed with the latest innovations, the grooming line for men also caters to the peculiar needs of men’s body and facial hair, giving consumers the best grooming experience.


Female depilation need not be a horror story with the Remington product line that aims to give the smoothest result without the pain. Understanding the dynamics of hair care has enabled Remington depilation products to give the best experience for its consumers.

With hair fashion changing as fast as the seasons, the use of hair curlers and iron has caused more harm than good. The hair care line of Remington allows its consumers to style their hair without damaging it.
Remington hair care, grooming, hair depilation, and shaving products are now available in leading appliance and department stores nationwide.
