[caption id="attachment_150180" align="aligncenter" width="525"] PhotoGRAPHS by Dolly Dy-Zulueta FOR THE DAILY TRIBUNEAngel’s Pizza’s Creamy Spinach Sushi Bake Pizza.[/caption] Sushi bake in pizza form Sushi bake, which is a food trend that emerged during the pandemic, has been incarnated into pizza form in Angel’s Pizza’s new Creamy Spinach Sushi Bake Pizza. Inspired by this Japanese-style sushi bake, this new pizza flavor also drew inspiration from Angel’s Pizza’s Creamy Spinach Dip Pizza, so it is like a marriage of the two — a creamy spinach base with generous mounds of crabstick, Japanese mayonnaise, Sriracha sauce, strips of seaweed and chopped parsley. The Creamy Spinach Sushi Bake Pizza is available in either original hand-tossed or thin crust pizza in Medium (nine-inch pizza, good for two) at P370, Family (12-inch pizza, good for three to four) at P515, or Big Family (14-inch pizza, good for five to seven) at P655. Established in 2009, Angel’s Pizza is the fastest growing pizza brand in the Philippines. It is part of The Figaro Group, and it now has 34 stores in Metro Manila and 56 stores in the provinces. Order pizza via the Angel’s Pizza mobile app, website (www.angelspizza.com.ph), hotline (02) 8922-2222 (Metro Manila), or through GrabFood and Foodpanda.

Young Filipino entrepreneur Duncan Yu, owner of Halo Halo Story, a new growing chain of stores specializing in Halo-Halo, introduces an innovation in the new Ube Scramble. As a pre-opening treat for a new outlet at SM Centerpoint, ube scramble is ube-flavored (halayang ube) ice, imported skimmed milk powder, chocolate syrup, marshmallows and rainbow sprinkles. It is available for a limited time only at Halo Halo Story branch in SM Center Pasig and its drive-through at 42 Quezon Ave., Santa Mesa Heights, Quezon City. Halo Halo Story opened its first store at SM Center Pasig almost a year ago, and it serves different variants of Halo-Halo, including Ubeng Ubeng Ube (loaded with halayang ube and artisanal ube ice cream with no added table sugar), Buko Pie, Four Cheese, and Maja Blanca. “Most of the flavors are my childhood favorites,” Yu says. “With Halo Halo Story, I wanted to bring back the vibe of how people used to go to dessert places to chat or catch up on each other’s lives. I wanted people to ‘chill’ more with our desserts.” [caption id="attachment_150178" align="aligncenter" width="525"] Kangkong King’s new salted-egg-flavored chips.[/caption] Now in salted egg flavor Kangkong King, a brand of kangkong or water spinach chips, is introducing a new flavor variant — the salted egg.

'BawalAngPlastik: Converge bats for reduced plastic use
Leading fiber Internet and technology provider Converge ICT Solutions Inc. is taking a stand against plastic pollution with its recently launched #BawalAngPlastik (#NoToPlastic) campaign, which urges its employees to opt for more eco-friendly materials at work to gradually eliminate plastics from its waste footprint. This is the second phase of Converge‘s Countdown to Zero Waste movement, a company-wide initiative to reach its goal of zero solid waste to landfill by 2030. Converge chief strategy officer and chief sustainability officer Benjamin Azada said that as a signatory of the UN Global Compact, Converge is committed to ensure that its operations would not cause harm to the environment. “If we want to respect humanity and the environment, one of the things that we really need to do is reduce the negative impact that we have on people and the planet,” Azada said. As part of this campaign, plastic bottle bins were installed at Converge headquarters in Pasig to encourage employees to donate their plastic bottles and containers, which will be upcycled into sustainable materials through the company’s recycling partners such as GreenAntz Builders Inc., an accredited plastics recycling company of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources. At the #BawalAngPlastik launch, Converge FiberXers forward Kris Porter and guard Adrian Wong held a one-minute “Basketbottle” shootout with employees. Team Wong snagged victory with 12 points during the 30-second overtime. Converge VP and head of Corporate Communications and Public Relations Jay-Anne Encarnado said the campaign is the company’s way to help mitigate the negative impacts of plastic consumption to the environment, especially to marine biodiversity. “It is alarming that the Philippines is now among the world’s biggest contributors to plastic pollution. And the situation is pretty dire. Studies have shown that, by 2050, there will be more plastic than fish at sea if we don’t act now,” Encarnado said. For his part, SVP and Head of Human Resources Albert Custodio encouraged employees to embody the company’s sustainability commitments even outside Converge, to help create positive ripple effects within their respective communities. “It starts with one person, one family, one community. And here at work, it starts with us, our colleagues, and teammates,” Custodio said. Last year, Converge launched the Countdown to Zero Waste campaign as a response to the country’s solid waste crisis. In line with this movement, zero waste bins were placed in its headquarters and business centers nationwide where employees and customers could drop their discarded waste electrical and electronic equipment, or e-waste, for proper treatment and disposal through Converge partners Jontrix Trading and Green Antz. Converge also started upcycling its used tarpaulins into reusable items like bags and mats with the help of women-led social enterprise KREations PH. “We have an obligation to our younger generation to give them a good future and give them the earth, the same way we have enjoyed it. To save the world, it is really a collective effort from all of us as citizens of the world, and as citizens of Converge,” concluded Converge VP and Head of Program Management and Change Integration Bryan King Kay.

South Korea celebrates 10 years of K-pop megastars BTS
Fans of K-pop megastars BTS flocked to hotspots around Seoul on Monday to mark the supergroup's 10-year anniversary, with South Korea unveiling a special commemorative stamp series to celebrate. The group's fans -- known collectively as ARMY -- gathered outside the offices of its agency HYBE to take selfies and record TikTok videos in front of a huge mural of the stars being painted on a wall. Korea Post unveiled a special edition series of stamps in BTS's honor set to go on sale at post offices Tuesday -- the official anniversary of the septet's debut -- having already sold out almost instantly online. "Obviously BTS are global superstars, but we didn't expect the stamps to be sold out on the day of the online release," a Korea Post official told AFP. After debuting on June 13, 2013, the group went on to become the first all-South Korean act to dominate the US and UK charts, raking in billions of dollars and building a global fandom in the process. "Many ARMY BTS fans have asked for the release of BTS stamps, and we also wanted to issue stamps for these global artists for their 10th anniversary," Kim Mi-hwa, Korea Post stamp designer, told AFP. The band -- currently on a hiatus, with two members performing their mandatory South Korean military service -- released a new digital single last week to celebrate the anniversary. The single, "Take Two", is purportedly a nod to the band's second chapter after a decade as musicians. Fans from around the world traveled to South Korea to celebrate the anniversary, with the Seoul city government running a special program for the visitors. "It's thrilling to be here. It's thrilling to be surrounded by other ARMY," scientist Anne Micic, 55, a BTS fan from Australia, told AFP. "I think that's the other thing, that as an ARMY when you meet other ARMY it's almost like you have another family, which is really awesome." A handwritten letter by J-Hope, who began his military duty in April, was uploaded Monday on Weverse, the worldwide fandom network. The letter appeared to have been prepared in advance for the anniversary before he joined the military. "I assume I'd be very military-disciplined" by the time the letter is revealed, he wrote. "No matter what day it is, I sincerely thank you and love you," he told fans. 'BTS saved my life' A special map released by the city government for fans visiting from abroad features 13 locations across the South Korean capital. It includes agency HYBE's office in Yongsan and the historic Gyeongbok Palace, where BTS filmed a special edition of the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Fans said it was worth traveling so far to honor their favorite band. BTS "really saved my life", Claudia Agustin, 23, a fan from Indonesia who works in accounting, told AFP in Seoul, adding that their lyrics had spoken to her during difficult periods of her life. She said she was "really, really proud" of the group's 10-year anniversary. "I know how they've been struggling from back in their debut days and then they really make it big. Now everyone really knows them," she added. Starting Monday, important tourist spots across Seoul, including the Namsan Seoul Tower and Dongdaemun Design Plaza, will be lit up in purple -- ARMY's color -- in celebration of the anniversary. BTS members who are not doing their military service yet have been busy with their solo careers -- with Jimin releasing his six-track solo album "Face" in March. It is likely part of a carefully planned strategy, experts said. "The most significant part of BTS' 10th anniversary is that they're still here and together as BTS," Jeff Benjamin, Billboard's K-pop columnist, told AFP. "Every male K-pop group will need to pause or transition due to South Korea's mandatory military service but not every group is adequately prepared as BTS has with preplanned music and content that holds significant meaning. "Even the new song itself 'Take Two' speaks specifically to this new chapter of BTS with their fans," Benjamin added.
