by Cheryl Villareal on Oct 21st, 2012

Hoho Chickenchop: Taiwan’s Original now in Manila
by Cheryl Villareal on Oct 13th, 2012
Ivy, a friend of mine who often goes to Hong Kong kept telling me about this really good fried chicken which she found on the streets of Hong Kong.

Plus, it's just street food, it can't ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (1 )

I personally am very much fascinated with robots, however, playing with them and learning to make them are two very different things. The idea of learning robotics is ...Read More » Tags Share Comments (2 )
