Wendy's New Baconator Burger - For a Rock Heavy Satisfaction!

Out of gossip from a colleague, this lead me to try out the new Wendy's Baconator Burger. Although the budget is tight, a hunger this big demands a big satisfaction!

Venue: Wendy's Hamburger in Shangri-La Plaza, Mandaluyong

Based on the advertisements, here is the Baconator:



The Experience:




Product presentation wise, the burger did not look too good. It's just big. Expecting the burger to look like how it was advertised is futile. If you have the burger up in front and tried to listen to it closely, you will hear it screaming: "cholesterol... fats.... cholesterol.. fats.."


I think my burger was done sub-standardly, judge the pictures for yourself.

Now I know it is not for the weak of heart! If your damn suicidal and not thinking about doing a healthy diet then this is the burger for you bradda!

This monster is worth P220 and if you feel that this wouldn't be enough! Order the combo for P250 or P260 which adds the Biggie Softdrink and the Biggie French Fries! I doubt you'll be able to stand up for some time if you do, not unless you are of the super saiyan kind.

The Verdict:

I'd say P220 and above is too much to be spent for this monster, for the money that much, you can even get better burgers than the Baconator, or a better decent meal with glamorous product presentation and more ingredients in it. So who would eat it? People who just wants to experience it that's all.. Me? It wouldn't be my priority but I am not saying either that I don't like it.



Kainin mo lang kung trip mo at kung ika'y mapera sa mga sandaling iyon.

Globe Tattoo - Too slow

A colleague of mine bought a new HP netbook. I think it was the HP Netbook model 100. Lucky for him the laptop came with a Globe Tattoo Prepaid Wireless broadband.


It sparked my curiosity if Globe Tattoo would be fast in our area, Pasig City near Edsa Central. I then decided to borrow the thingy. Plugged it in on my Dad's ACER ASPIRE. It was succesfully installed on the computer.

I then decided to check the speed by going to speedtest.net. To my astonishment, it was so damn freakin' slow!! freakin' slower than dial up!! Took me 30minutes just to pull up speedtest.net's web page! Now that its loaded, I then click on start speed test guess what I got?? LATENCY ERROR. So much for pretty good advertisements.

At least now we know rather than getting one without knowing. gulo? hehehe... It's damn slow. It didn't even reach 1% of the speed of Sun Broadband. Maybe the cell site is still flooded by Typhoon Ondoy let's give them that.

Point Made.
