Puto bumbong lovers, your favorite holiday treat just got a Wendy’s glow-up—ready for a twist on tradition?

It’s payday, the perfect time to treat ourselves, especially with the ever-changing weather in the Philippines. For fans of traditional Pinoy desserts , there’s now a new twist to enjoy your puto bumbong . Carmina ordered’  Wendy's Philippines ’ latest offering—the Putobumbong Frosty —available in two sizes: 6oz for 87.85 pesos ($1.49) or a tub for 125.35 pesos ($2.12).  She opted for the tub, skipping the smaller size entirely. The classic puto bumbong, made from purple sticky rice with grated cheese and latik sauce , gets an upgrade in Wendy’s version, which adds leche flan , rice crispies, and creamy vanilla frosty. A sweet treat perfect for those with a sweet tooth. Carmina preferred it served separately, as the puto bumbong is hard and chewy to eat. I guess I’m just used to having it without ice cream. That’s just my preference—others might enjoy it as it is. NOT SPONSORED. Check out my channel where you can find my videos at  Carmina Lifestyle YouTube Channel ...

Carmina Lifestyle Went Live Streaming with Mom Violy at Manila Baywalk Dolomite Beach

Before Carmina had planned to do a live streaming with Mom Violy she had informed her once you've talked there is no way to edit it. 🤣 Mom Violy at first was quiet giving a heads up.  Carmina explained to Mom Violy she needs to start doing live streaming which is required for everyone who wants to ads on reels in their Facebook. It is a challenge we need to conquer even if we don't know what to discuss while having a live streaming. In the beginning Carmina informed Mom Violy she'll walk at the sky bridge since I was informed it was the only way to cross over to the other side. Mom Violy said, no. I'll just stay in the car. Carmina was preparing herself and began leaving the car. Mom Violy said, okay I'll go with you. I asked Mom Violy are you sure you'll be alright climbing the stairs up on the sky bridge.  It turns out Mom Violy came along with Carmina to explore.  Afterwards walking on Roxas Boulevard Carmina was looking for the entrance of  Manila Bay Walk ...

Mom Violy Craving for Olive Garden's Never-Ending Soup, Salad and Breadsticks

Carmina informed Mom Violy that she would be in the area of Mall of Asia and invited her to join. Mom Violy suggested eating at Olive Garden, and Carmina agreed since they had seen one months ago before dining at another restaurant. The Never-Ending Soup, Salad, and Breadsticks costs 795.00 pesos ($14.00), and you can choose a different soup for this meal. Mom Violy's favorite is the Chicken & Gnocchi soup. Carmina tried their Minestrone during her last visit to Olive Garden. This time, my meal included soup, so I chose the Zuppa Toscana with spicy sausage, kale, and potatoes. It wasn’t as spicy as the server had described. Carmina ordered the Italian Braised Short Ribs , which comes with a choice of rice or mashed potatoes, for 995.00 pesos ($17.45). Each main course includes salad and soup, so you can enjoy a satisfying meal by the time you reach the main dish, along with breadsticks.  A family member ordered the Shrimp Scampi Pasta , which comes with salad, soup, and bre...
