When Mom Violy spotted Crisostomo’s handwritten menu, something in her chest lit up: home-style lumpia, sinigang steaming in clay pots—could this be the comfort food she’d been missing?

Carmina informed Mom Violy that she would visit her home on Saturday, November 8, 2025. She asked if Mom Violy wanted to go out for lunch and mentioned needing to do some grocery shopping due to an upcoming big storm. Mom Violy suggested trying Crisostomo, a Filipino restaurant inside Robinsons Magnolia. Carmina forwarded the menu for her to choose what she wanted to eat, while Carmina already knew her order. I chose pork barbeque served in a set of three pieces with a vinegar dipping sauce. I skipped rice and opted for lumpiang hubad, fresh lumpia without a wrapper, topped with peanut sauce.  Mom Violy initially craved the classic Pinoy paella, but when it wasn’t available, she decided on sinigang na baboy with an extra serving of rice.

Budget Friendly Yowxii Smart LCD Touchscreen Air Fryer

One month ago, I have been doing my research on what was a good air fryer in the Philippines. 

I was chatting with my cousin Mariles and she had mentioned that she cooks her food with an air fryer. Yet the one she had was off my budget. I didn't want to spend on 10,000.00 pesos ($181.00). 

Mariles had informed her she had purchased her air fryer two years online. 

I went looking at the stores that had carried an air fryer. The expensive it got and decided to hold off figure which one I wanted.

Someone had informed me that their friend recently made a purchase at Yowxii Lazada Philippines. They said the air fryer works great for the price of 2,445.69 pesos ($44.47) not including shipping and handling. 


Description of the Yowxii Smart LCD Touchscreen Air Fryer 

I decided to purchase Yowxii Smart LCD Touchscreen Air Fryer 16L with discount in Lazada that I had saved with my coins. 

I had paid additional for the Certificate of Cover for Electronic Insurance. Once you have received the product it will be sent to you via-email.

I had purchased through GCash making it arrived within two days at my front door. It was sealed with bubble wrapped with fragile on the box.

Opening the box was hand mitten, two trays and instructions. The air fryer was sealed with plastic wrap make sure you remove it completely from air fryer.



I placed the air fryer on the kitchen counter remove the sticker that has instructions on it.


I plugged the air fryer and it had turned on by itself. Who knows maybe it was already programmed for the process to be on for twenty minutes before using the air fryer stated on the sticker. 

I had watched it the whole time when it is completely done it will beep several times. 

Make sure you clean the two trays before using it with soap, water and let it dry.

I had unplugged the air fryer afterwards.
