Donald Monti, CEO
Donald Monti, CEO of Renaissance Downtowns, has over 40 years of diverse experience covering all aspects of the real estate spectrum having played a major role in the development, construction and management of 80+ development projects. Renaissance has become the branded leader in the holistic and comprehensive development of suburban downtowns with a focus on mixed-use and transit oriented development. The Company is Master Developer in numerous projects throughout the Northeast, with a total development value in excess of $10 Billion along with along with a pipeline of 10,000 plus residential units. The Company was recently designated as Master Developer for the Nassau Coliseum Hub redevelopment site, which represents Nassau County's largest tract of redevelopable land.
Two of Mr. Monti's Long Island based projects have been designated as a "Project of Regional Significance" by the Long Island Regional Planning Council, representing the transformative nature of Renaissance's downtown redevelopment efforts. One of those projects is the $2 Billion+ dollar mixed-use TOD in Hempstead, NY which was recently awarded $5 Million by the New York State Economic Development Council, one of the largest awards provided to a single development effort. Hempstead represents a true game changer for Long Island and other mature suburbs by ushering in the ideals of large scale, mixed use, smart growth redevelopment that abide by Renaissance's "Triple Bottom Line" approach to real estate development – social, environmental and economic responsibility. The Hempstead redevelopment received its final approvals in 2012, setting the stage for construction to begin in the very near future. The Hempstead revitalization effort, as an example of innovative and forward thinking development, was featured by Mr. Monti as a case study at the United Nations World Energy and Water Forum in Dubai, in October 2012.
Under Mr. Monti's leadership, the Company instituted the nation's first grass roots, social networking campaign for public outreach ("Crowdsourced Placemaking") which allows community members to provide input to the planning process through web based and in-person initiatives. Utilizing the patent pending Crowdsourced Placemaking process in Bristol, CT, the Company has engaged nearly 2,500 people on bristolrising.com, which has become a national example for broad based community outreach. Mr. Monti's proactive approach to community engagement provides for a streamlined approval process by garnering public input and support for the Company's redevelopment efforts from the outset of the planning process. The Bristol Rising community's support lead to a unanimous 7-0 approval of the Company's development plan, slated to break ground in the upcoming months.
The success of Crowdsourced Placemaking was never more evident than in the recent 5-0, bipartisan approval of Renaissance's Development Strategy in Huntington Station, demonstrating the ability for community driven ideas to result in timely implementation. As an outcropping of this success, Mr. Monti was approached by a number of Long Island's young professionals who inquired about how to spread the word of responsible downtown redevelopment Island-wide, resulting in the formation of Destination LI, a fast growing community of individuals dedicated to creating the types of places that will retain and attract the young workforce and, in turn, drive the innovation economy.
Mr. Monti has been quoted in numerous nationally respected media sources as an expert in downtown revitalization and been a keynote speaker / panelist at numerous national conferences, including the CNU Annual Congress, Railvolution, American Planning Association, California Downtown Association, Wharton Real Estate Summit at the NYSE, Private Equity Real Estate Annual Forum, and Vision Long Island amongst others.
Mr. Monti is a member of the ULI, the APA and the CNU, along with several other leading organizations in the real estate industry. He has also been heavily involved in community affairs, including serving on the Board of Directors for the Don Monti Memorial Foundation and being honored as Man of the Year by the American Red Cross.

On the morning of Thursday 21st Jan, two new concrete beams for the downstream deck will be installed.
These have been manufactured off-site and, at 35 tonnes each, will need to be lifted using two cranes in tandem. Once the beams are in place, the new concrete deck can be built on top and the services transferred from the upstream side, which then frees up the upstream deck for demolition. Access to Mill Row & Bridgend will be maintained throughout.
Bridge renovation is on target for completion by May 2016.

Paul Allen's Patent Suit Against Google, Apple, More Dismissed
A Washington district judge on Friday dismissed a patent case that Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen filed against nearly a dozen top technology firms, but an Allen spokesman said his team views the move as "procedural matter" and will appeal the decision.
Allen failed to adequately explain how companies like Apple, Facebook, Google, and Yahoo are infringing upon his patents, Judge Marsha J. Pechman wrote in her decision. Allen's "complaint is little more than labels and conclusions," she said.
Allen filed his suit in August on behalf of Interval Licensing LLC, which is part of Interval Research, the now defunct company founded in 1992 by Allen and David Liddle. The patents in question are "fundamental to the ways that leading e-commerce and search companies operate today," Allen's team said at the time.
The patents cover technologies developed at Interval Research in the 1990s, which the company said are now being infringed by major e-commerce and Web search companies. Those companies include AOL, Apple, eBay, Facebook, Google, Netflix, Office Depot, OfficeMax, Staples, Yahoo, and YouTube.
Judge Pechman, however, found Allen's lawsuit to be "spartan."
"The court and defendants are left to guess what devices infringe on the four patents. [Allen] only indicates that defendants have websites, hardware, and software that infringe on the patents or that they are encouraging third parties to use products that infringe on the patents," Judge Pechman wrote. "This fails to indicate to defendants which of their myriad products or devices may be at issue."
Allen's legal team apparently told the court "to have patience and simply await delivery of the infringement contentions," the judge wrote, but she instead granted the tech companies' motion to dismiss the case.
David Postman, a spokesman for Allen, said "the case continues, and we will be filing an amended complaint soon."
"We see this as a procedural matter," Postman continued. "The dismissal of the original complaint had to do with the degree of specificity required in the complaint. The judge focused on two recent US Supreme Court decisions that said - in non-patent cases - that the practice of 'notice pleading' basically, high level allegations with details to be provided in subsequent filings are no longer adequate under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The defendants argued, and the judge agreed, that those cases should apply to patent cases as well."
Both sides will be in court again today for a previously set scheduling conferencing. Judge Pechman said Allen's team has 15 days from Monday's meeting to file an amended complaint. In that filing, Allen must identify which of the companies' product, devices, or schemes infringe upon his patents.
"[Allen] should, where possible, set forth the specific websites that are at issue and identify the hardware and software with adequate detail for defendants to know what portions of their business operations are in play in this litigation," the judge wrote. "Where possible, the court urges [Allen] to identify the infringing hardware and software with any relevant product identifiers and descriptions."

My Review: I received this book for a fair and honest review.
This book is one of those books you lose yourself in and makes you think.
Maybe there is more out there in the world than we know. In this book you are transformed into the unknown. Things are not always as they appear.
This is an action packed story from page 1. I was constantly wondering what will happen next, how will what is going on currently be solved.
The story starts out with Aaron being hired as a PI. The job ends up to be more than he bargained for.

Imagine a land that is as friendly as it is mysterious. It's a place that is brimming with life, from open air markets, to colourful flowers, to fragrant, spicy smells wafting through the air. It's hot and steamy and the traffic is worse than any big American city, but Bangkok offers the charm of an ancient city with the modern amenities of today. There are plenty of touristy places to go, but why not check out some of the more unusual things that Bangkok has to offer withlocals?
Bangkok Forensic Museum
Why visit one museum when you can visit six of them at the same place in the same day? The three creepiest of the museums attract the most attention—the Pathology, Forensic, and Anatomy Museums where you'll find displays of encapsulated babies with genetic disorders or every kind of parasite known to man. If skeletons and corpses in formaldehyde are your thing, it will be something to talk about when you get home. Find it on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River inside the Siriraj Hospital.
Before the tall buildings were built and the expressways became clogged, the people of Bangkok lived in and around the canals in teak homes, lean-to's, and huts. The meager homes stand as a backdrop to the luxurious Thai homes built on stilts to protect them from the floods. See it all on a long-tail boat with an English-speaking tour guide. End your tour with a climb to the tower at Wat Arun, one of the most beautiful temples in Bangkok.
Rama IX Park
If you want to truly experience Thai culture, you need to go where the locals go. You'll find them at the largest green space in Bangkok. It's a picturesque area with a beautiful botanical garden, large lake and gardens that are inspired by other parts of the world. If you have time, rent one of the duck or paddle boats and explore at your leisure. If you're their early, take part in a public Tai Chi or aerobics class or get some exercise at your own pace at the outdoor gym. You'll find some of the best Thai cuisine from the street venders at the entrance to the park.
Chef Leez Thai Cooking Classes
There are literally dozens of awesome Thai cooking classes that offer the opportunity to cook and eat what the locals eat. The number one choice is Chef Leez Thai Cooking classes. Choose such local recipes as Coconut Sticky Rice with Mango, Crispy Fish Salad, Thai Noodles in Curry Sauce, Galangal Soup, and much more. The minimum class is 6 students, so make it a group affair. Alum students revere Chef Lee as a truly brilliant chef who makes the best Thai food in the land.
Papaya Vintage Shop
It's a shop. It's a warehouse. It's a vintage museum. Whatever your perspective is after visiting this one-of-a-kind establishment, you'd be absolutely right. The first room greets you with a flea-market display of Darth Vader and James Dean, which are only foreshadowed by the extensive Ultraman figure collection. These vintage treasures are just the first course that lead you through a narrow maze to a wide-open, three-story high opening that packs vintage gems from floor to ceiling. As with everywhere else in Bangkok, bartering is welcome.
Bangkok Phallic Shrine
From the tiniest wooden sculpture to the ten-foot tall phallus (yes, that means penis) decorated with ribbons, a visit to the Bangkok Phallic Shrine is certain to be one of the most unusual places you'll ever visit. The shrine honour the female fertility spirit, Chao Mae Tubtim. Women wanting to conceive visit the shrine, leaving offerings of lotus and jasmine. Rumour has it that the shrine is effective in populating the earth. If a woman's wish is fulfilled, she returns to the shrine to add another phallus.
Visit all the temples and touristy places to go that you can make time for. Sprinkle in a dose of mixing and mingling with the locals to truly enjoy and appreciate Bangkok culture. The people of Thailand create some of the most delicate and delicious food offerings. You'll find that the food is equally good on the streets as it is in the most popular restaurants. When you get to know the people, you'll find that they are always smiling, because they are truly happy people.

James Britt Baker, 17 June 1913 (but over the years various other dates have been given, including 7 July 1912), near Marshall, Arkansas, USA, d. 23 June 1972, Connellsville, Pennsylvania, USA. Britts father was a champion fiddle player and his mother a noted singer. He learned to sing and play guitar and was performing in public by the age of 12. After hearing recordings by Riley Puckett and Jimmie Rodgers, he became interested in yodelling and soon became proficient at the art. In the early 30s he joined the Beverly Hillbillies, and appeared with them on KMPC Hollywood. When the group split in 1932, Britt moved with Zeke Manners to New York, where (under various aliases) the pair recorded for ARC. Britt entered and won a yodelling competition organized by cowboy star Tom Mix, in spite of the challenge of leading exponents from Switzerland and Bavaria. The win saw Britt become known as the unofficial world yodelling champion. He made his first solo...

About This Class
Expand your imagination and the drawings in your sketchbook with celebrated comic artist Camilla D'Errico. In this 25-minute class, you will go into Camilla's studio and explore her sketchbooks, the elements of a character that inspire her, and the exercise she uses to bring more originality to her work, and attitude to her characters through pop-surrealism.
Watch Camilla create a completely new, original character by combining different features to compose a surreal, imaginitive concept. Camilla will start with reserach, then she will draw thumbnails of each of her ideas. She will then select the character she wants to bring to life as a final piece. You will watch Camilla build on her sketch and add essential character features to create a final, beautiful graphite drawing of a girl in her unique style.
Camilla approaches her work with the techniques of Manga art, but this class is exciting and applicable for illustrators and artists, and anyone who likes to draw. You will push your imagination and drawing skills to concept and create something completely new.

It is truly incredible to watch a professional work on their piece of art from concept to complete drawing, especially when they explain each step clearly. I feel like it would help a lot of people sketch and draw in a more organized and clear manner. Definitely helped me. Thanks!
Camilla d'Errico is a product of her split heritage, Italian and Canadian rolled into one: Italian fiestiness, Canadian politeness, and an early addiction to Saturday morning cartoons, comics and manga. Growing up she was more often doodling sexy damsels and dragons on her textbooks than reading them. In 1998 when Camilla first attended her first San Diego Comic Con she realised that a 9–5 day job would kill her and this was what she wanted to do. Thanks to her relentless energy, dedication, and just enough sleep deprivation, she has followed her dream of working creatively for a living.
Camilla's unique style continues to be in demand and her client list includes Dark Horse Comics, Image Comics, Random House, Tokyopop, Hasbro, Disney, Sanrio, Neil Gaiman and she also works with video game and movie companies on character development. Her own characters and properties, Tanpopo and Helmetgirls, are loved by fans and followers and now inspire Cosplay costumes. She has successfully merchandised and licensed her beautiful artwork across a variety of categories: clothing, stationery and gift, accessories, art prints, etc. and continues to expand her licensing program. Her emotive and eloquent paintings have propelled her to the top of the ranks of the New Contemporary art movement, and she is represented by Opera Gallery of New York.
She is proud to be supported by, and to work with, Vancouver based PacBlue Printing and their team of professionals for all her printing needs.
Camilla can't live without Holbein's "DUO" water-soluble oils, green tea lattes, Hello Kitty merchandise, and her daily fix of manga and anime.
"Its about expressing what they feel and feeling what they express."

We report on what is to our knowledge the first observation of subpicosecond ultraviolet laser pulse filamentation in transparent solid materials. Robust filaments were created in fused silica and observed over distances that exceed 3 cm in length. Intensities as high as were found to be transported in the filamented beam without material damage in the bulk of the fused-silica sample.

Information about group practices
What is a Group Practice?
According to The Medical Group Management Association, a group practice is any relationship between three or more physicians who share facilities, expenses, profits and other resources like support staff and equipment.
Group practices tend to fall into two categories: those that organize around a particular medical specialty and those that encompass several specialties like East Boston Neighborhood Health that specializes in internal medicine.
Why Group Practice?
As medicine became more complex in the twentieth century, the need for group practices made more sense. Physicians found it impossible to know everything about the emerging drugs and technologies on the medical landscape. In addition, the cost of providing a full range of diagnostic services, such as tests and X-rays, in one location became prohibitive to the individual practitioner. Hence, doctors from various disciplines began to team together in order to provide more comprehensive care to their community of patients.
Benefits of Group Practice
- Access to doctors from various disciplines for referrals and advice
- Better coverage on weekends and off-hours
- One-stop clinics for comprehensive care and testing

Ticket sales for sporting events are slumping worse than the Houston Texans or any of the New York basketball teams.
But the shoddy play on the field or court, respectively, isn't the only reason why fans of all the major sports are opting to stay home, rather than making the trek from the couch to the arena.
They simply can't afford it.
Once you factor in tickets, parking, gas, food and drinks and, for those who an extreme attention to financial detail, the wear and tear on your car, the thought of watching a football or basketball game live feels more like a major investment, rather than a minor form of entertainment.
If you're lucky, you can find a discounted tickets online, and that certainly can help defer some of the cost when it comes to catching your favorite team in person. But the majority of spending on attending a live sports event centers in the food and beverage aspects of this trip.

Italian Tomato Sauce With Meatballs and Sausage
Recipe by DianeNJ
My best Italian Sauce. I make big batches and freeze it in containers for those nights we want a quick meal. My son says there is no better smell then the smell of my sauce simmering on the stove. I allow them a quick taste by dipping with a slice of Italian Bread.
Top Review by kiwidutch
I made these for Pick a Chef. September 2007. I used DianeNJ's recipe#245765 for the meatballs and knowing that we like strong Italian flavours I upped the garlic and herbs considerably. I used a large handful of fresh basil leaves and was pleased that I did becuase the flavour came though nicely and I used fresh oregano too instead of dried. This made a substantial meal that we liked a lot. Please see my rating system: a wonderful 4 stars for a nice weekday meal. Thanks!

What does it mean! It happens all the time to me in the hallway ill be looking at a girl I think is beautiful, she catches my stare, but doesn't look away. after these moments can you approach them, or do your thoughts remain a mystery,
Whats your opinion? :P
Most Helpful Guy
My thoughts are: You think she is beautiful, get to know her.
If she is looking at you, she will see you approach her, which is beneficial to both you and her.. If she breaks eyecontact, you can walk right past her to someone else - teacher, a friend, her friend, etc.. And it won't be awkward as if you were to tap her on the shoulder and say: "Excuse me, uhmmm. do you mind.. I'm uhh trying to say.. hi? Do you see me?".. Moving forward.. The way it's beneficial to her (if you catch onto her breaking the eyecontact is that she can say: "I was just being friendly, keep moving pal" without opening her mouth to be a bitch, when she really doesn't want to be.
Now on the lighter side of things; it's my perception that HUMANS, not just women, look at anything that catches interest in a "what-if" factoid in their brain.. "What if" this guy turns out to be my next best friend... "What if" she's the one I've been waiting for.. "What if" I could have sex with him.. etc..
So anytime you see someone looking at you with those "love-glazed-eyecontacts"; be sure to walk over and with confidence, but with respect, and further introduce yourself.
~ ArtistBBoy84|40|0
I totalllllllly agree.
That sounds like a perfect Idea.. Except I will probably pass out on the walk over. Is this a bad thing?

Not unusual.: The textbooks usually say that graves' causes weight loss. However, I have had many, many people with graves' guarantee me that they gained weight uncontrollably.

Graves' disease is an autoimmune disorder, meaning it is caused by antibodies directed against the thyroid. These antibodies "trick" the thyroid causing it to be stimulated into making more thyroid hormone than it is supposed to.

Until then, you need to use more willpower. ...Read more

Question: A scientist believes that the gender of a child is
A scientist believes that the gender of a child is a binomial random variable with probability = .5 for a boy and .5 for a girl. To help test her belief, she randomly samples 100 families with five children. She records the number of boys.

Most Helpful Girl
My boyfriend is getting a sleeve and as an artist I'm hunting for tattooists around the country and helping with the design.
I think that in this decade, the placement and the imagery is the important part of good tattoos. Perhaps people assume that being coated in tattoos is somewhat menacing and it used to be a thing associated with less reputable people. Bad tattoos in unflattering places are incredibly unfortunate but I'm quite found of tattoos as art. What matters is that if someone is going to get something permanent, it's worth making an effort for, in saving up lots of money for a good artist or travelling somewhere particular to get it done.00|00|0
I completely understand where you're coming from and I hope your boyfriend gets the that tat that he wants and that he likes it
I hope so too, it's something we've put a fair amount of planning into :3

Most of my husband's friends live and work in the BGC area so it's where we usually meet up for dinner or drinks. Last week though we were a bit early so we decided to get a 'snack' at Bonifacio stopover.
Saw yumchee and was really surprised at how affordable their prices were! I got this delicious Taiwanese style shaved ice (with two fruit choices!) for only ₱78! Hubby enjoyed his congee for only ₱150 I think! Super affordable without sacrificing quality!

After a night walk in the area, my friends and I decided to have a late dinner or merienda for some, at Bonifacio Stopover. We had tons of choices to eat but our budget was to be considered as well as the food preferences that we would all agree on #anghirapkasiandaminamin
We all decided to get Chinese, thinking that they have some healthy vegetable dishes. G was disappointed that they only served bokchoy
I tried 3 different dimsums
🔸 Cua Pao (85php)
I like the bun but the filling had a weird taste, matamis sa toppings pero yung loob parang maasim na ewan, turns out it had ginger and onions?
🔸 Shrimp Dumpling/Hakaw (85php)
Taste is okay. It's shrimp e!
🔸 Beancurd Dumpling (85php)
I think I could come back for their beancurd and milk teas

Beef brisket meal set by Yumchee: MEH as a meal. But a huge YEY for the brisket as a dish.
Iced Milk Tea with pearls by Yumchee: YEY.
Everything was brightly lit, there were a lot of whites, clean lines all around. For a Chinese restaurant, it was an awkwardly clinical space, making you feel like you were walking into a hospital. There was something unsettlingly neat about the place. We ate at around 9 in the evening so the place was empty. I don't know how crowded it can get during peak service hours but I have my doubts.
The brisket was good. The beef cubes held their shape but shreded easily into tasty strings of meat at the slightest pull. The sauce was flavorful, as any stew should be, and had just the right amount of sweetness (and aromatics, most apparent is the star anise). It was really good.
Unfortunately, the soup was tasteless and the fried rice was dry and lacked seasoning. It was like eating hospital food (dahil ba katabi niya ang St. Lukes?). I ordered an extra cup of plain rice so I can enjoy the brisket on its own, instead. But the white rice tasted and smelled funny. It wasn't like panis, it was more like it was stored too long. Gets? The rice tasted "luma" (stale). For the rice and soup, you'd have a better chance at your neighborhood Pares house like Cocoy's. Maybe Yumchee's brisket and noodle pairing would be better.
I ended my meal with Yumchee's Iced Milk Tea blend with pearls. It was creamy and the black sago were fun to chew on.

Shaved Ice @ 78Php
It's been awhile since I dined here at Yumchee and if I remember it right, I was complaining about their sour mango. I invited 3 officemates to have shaved ice for dessert. We ordered the mango and strawberry toppings.
The presentation can be improved. I find it not so appealing especially the strawberry because it doesn't look fresh. It looks like ewan!
The diced mango is sweet this time. I liked it a lot! The shaved ice is not as fine as Hobing's but it's okay. This is still a really good dessert for a sunny afternoon!
Happy ako leaving the restaurant. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it!

Ordered food to go at Yumchee. Service was quick as expected, even with a crowd they still deliver good service. Located at BGC Stopover, they mainly cater to the office crowd and occassional hospital "bantay" such as myself, lost in BGC. For 199pesos you get to choose one main dish and side. For the side I ordered the vegetable rice and soup. The Salt Pepper Spareribs was my main dish. I like that their servings can be shared by two light eaters. Add an additional dimsum and your good to go. The pork was lightly crisped with a salty glaze. It was a little oily though. Overall it is a great lunch fare for those who want it quick and satisfying. Recommended.

Shaved ice! You can choose two types of toppings but I opt to have one - fresh mango. Some mangoes were sour! I could have given this a 5-star rating if the mangoes were sweet. Try this! A perfect alternative to your usual halo-halo.

I've had the pleasure of having lunch and takeout here on several occasions since its right across the office, and i gotta say that the food here is pretty decent for a local Chinese brand! Reminds me of casual Chinese dining in HK in places like Tsui Wah. Bottomline, the food here is good and the real deal!
Its right smack in the middle of your Chowking's/Hap Chan's and the fancy ones like Gloria Maris et al... in terms of taste and price. Its not cheap Chinese, but it wont burn a hole in your wallet either. And at least you can expect something tastier and of better quality too than most of our Chinese fast food chains.
My favorites off the bat would be their black pepper beef, congee, shrimp & beancurd roll, and the shaved ice dessert!

Went back to Yumchee recently with the husband in tow.
During this visit, I got Beef Brisket plus veggie fried rice and soup. No drink this time but I got an extra order of Shrimp Dumpling or Hakaw.
My choice of meet was another hit! Chunks of tender beef that were flavorful, salty with each meat strand soaking in the brisket sauce. Also loved the trimmings of fat that made each chunk more tasty! Their Shrimp Dumplings were good too. Perfectly cooked, the wrap had the right thickness and the shrimp inside was succulent and juicy. Didn't feel like fast food dining at all!
Husband got the Salt and Pepper Spareribs which was served with some vinegar. Loved the crunchy breading, the saltiness and the tender meat. He was more than satisfied with his meal. He also paired his meat with veggie fried rice and soup.
Service was fast and the area was overall clean. Staff were friendly as well and if they see that you're lost when ordering, obviously a newbie, they would willingly help you take your pick.
Definitely one of the best fast food places in the Metro providing quality Chinese food at very affordable prices, I will be back Yumchee!

Been seeing Yumchee in BGC stopover but since it's always Hobing or Starbucks that I target when I go there, I haven't given it much attention. Until one night, I got so hungry and I didn't think that Bingsu nor coffee will help. I went to Yumchee. Clueless on what they offer, I needed to check their menu board for a while first before braving the counter.
Yumchee is a Chinese fast food place that has a straight forward menu. For 199 you'll get to choose your viand plus a side – steamed rice + soup, vegetable fried rice + soup, stir-fried noodles plus soup or seasonal veggies. Add 50php and you'll get to choose a specialty drink too.
For my first time, I got Orange Chicken with Vegetable Fried Rice and Soup then added Iced Milk Tea as my drink. For 249Php, I got a really good meal!
The serving was just right. Not too little but not a lot as well. What I liked though was the quality of food. You'll think Chowking if I say Chinese fast food but Yumchee is a far cry. The Orange Chicken was good – chunks of tender chicken fillet coated with a crunchy batter and smothered generously with a thick orange glace sauce. It was Chinese restaurant quality! I also loved the Vegetable Fried Rice since it was like Yangchow without any meat or seafood. The soup was of good quality too. Not the typical clear salted soup that you'll get for free. It's thick, tasty and had egg in it. The milk tea tasted like Chowking's Nai Cha!
Service was fast and the area was overall clean. I shared this experience with the husband and promised to take him here! Will try their Dimsum next time.

4pm appointment rescheduled to Friday. Since my mind was programmed to go home a lil late than usual, i decided to swing by Bonifacio Stopover for some grub.
Then i saw Yumchee. You know the feeling wherein images start showing up in your head? Dunno the term but I always see this in movies (think Limitless, after Bradley Cooper takes the magic pills). I swear, i saw Abe C 's review in my head.
An imaginary force pulled my weary feet to Yumchee's direction, all i remember is that i was standing in front of the counter. I ordered salt and pepper spareribs with fried rice and soup. Customers can pick one main dish and one side for php 199, add php 50 for a medium sized drink. Reasonably priced, yes?
The service was lightning fast. No wait time at all. Their fried rice is similar to Yang Chow. Light yellow hue with scrambled eggs and chopped veggies. The spareribs is seasoned well, deep fried and sautéed with chopped chillies. The meat is tender and flavorful. The only comment i have about this dish is that - there wasn't enough chillies! Personal preference as i like spicy food.
I was satisfied with my meal. I even ordered some dimsum for takeaway. I will go back to try some of their noodle dishes.

Just ordered their Pork Shrimp Siomai and Shrimp Dumpling (hakaw) over late lunch today. I love my hood. Right, Reich T?
Pork Siomai - solid 4/5. Soft, good size and taste. As expected. 4 pieces
Hakaw - 4.5/5 good size and again, it met my expectations. 3 pieces
At P85@, it ain't bad, quality meets the price. That's always a good intersection for restaurant food.
Will try their other offerings next time. They have set meals for P199, with a choice of main dish and side dish...
8 choices of main dish:
Chicken Chop
Orange Chicken
Sweet & Sour Pork
Chinese Adobo
Salt N Pepper Spareribs, add P20
Beef Brisket, add P20
Fish Fillet with tofu
then you pick the side whether it's rice and soup, fried rice and soup, fried noodles and soup or vegetables. Nice deal.
With congee and noodle soup option for P159
They've got specialty drinks that's also Chinese related and other snacks that also either sweet or savory.
Ambience is clean, modern. Very casual dining. In fact, it's counter order like a typical fast food. Quick snack or meals work here, especially if you love Chinese food like I do.

"While you're eating, I want you to remember the price of the food."
I wasn't being admonished to finish my food because some people are dying of hunger in Africa, I was being made aware that the delicious dimsum that I nibbled, that distinctive piece of chicken that I consumed, or that heavenly congee that I savored didn't cost more than 200 pesos. Would you believe if I tell you that these delectable Chinese offerings can actually be found in a fastfood chain? I can hardly believe it myself but people, I'm serious. I found a rookie restaurant of late that has food so good, it would give any fastfood giants a run for their money. Ladies and gents, let us give way to Yumchee, the newest player in the country's fastfood scene.
By its catchy name itself, you already know that it falls under the fastfood category. Yumchee is a play of words of delicious, "yum" and Chinese, "chee." It just opened late this year and already, the people behind it are thinking of expanding by building more branches around the city. For now though, you can head to their first branch at the BGC Stopover.
And I already did so I can give you a walkthrough. You know I love you like that! Anyway, the place itself is pleasant, save for the huge poster of a girl in pigtails plastered on the wall, the furniture are kept in neutral colors.
Now let's get to our favorite part, the food.
There are many to choose from, each dish is only worth 85 bucks. Pretty cheap I must say. Let's start with one of my all-time favorite snacks, BBQ Pork Bun or in layman's term, siopao. Admittedly, I still prefer the siopao of the more famous Chinese foodchain, but that's it. The rest of the food here, in my honest opinion, tastes better.
Fried Wanton is cooked to a crisp but not burned, if you know what I mean. The wrapper has a nice golden color, didn't break like a fortune cookie.
The Pork Shrimp Siomai is packed and flavorful in such a little piece. Chance is high that I'd be stuffed in no time if I eat this with rice.
In the steamed siomai department though, the Shrimp Dumpling wins my approval. With sauce or not, it's good!
But the star of all dimsum is the Beancurd Shrimp Roll. It's rolled in a wrapper that has a caramelized texture to it. Inside reveals shrimp stuffing that is so yummy it gives justice to the name of the place.
Noodle Soup
What is Chinese food without noodles so I tried those too. For only 159 pesos, you can already satiate a person. I tried Beef Brisket and Wanton, of the two I preferred the Wanton because of the chicken flavor. It's just a preference; I've always favored chicken over beef.
Main Dishes
If you're a rice person, fret not, there are many to choose from. There's the Beef Brisket Rice
Black Pepper Beef, Sweet and Sour Pork, Chicken Chop, and Chinese Adobo.
God it's been a long time since I've had Orange Chicken, I have a friend who cooks a mean one. Yumchee's version though is not far behind. In fact, it's my most favorite out of all the rice dishes that I tried at Yumchee. The zesty flavor of orange complements the tender chicken meat. I highly recommend that you order it.
Another best thing in the menu is their Congee, prompted good memories from my childhood because it's as delicious and creamy as that famous lugaw that an old Filipino-Chinese man used to cook and sell in our neighborhood.
I wanted hot coffee but it wasn't available at that time so I had Iced Coffee. It was invigorating and not excessively sweet, just the way I liked it. They also have milktea, but I've yet to try it.
Yumchee has snacks too and my favorite would be their Shaved Ice. You can pick two toppings from any of the following: grass jelly, black pearl, mango, strawberry, kiwi, peach and lychee. It's only 78 pesos, not bad right? I was able to taste the one with strawberries and peach and the one that has kiwi and mango. I liked the kiwi and mango mix better.
After this visit I could only think of one thing, recommend it to friends and to you my readers. No food this cheap should be this good but Yumchee was able to do that. It's always a pleasant experience to discover a place that offers good food without making you poor. In conclusion, Yumchee is making a bold attempt to change the standard in the fastfood scene and I am certainly not complaining.

Yumchee is one of the newest restaurants in Bonifacio Stopover, offering affordable but high quality Chinese cuisine. It is a quick service restaurant and its interiors is a testament to that. The menu board is bright and not like the static ones usually found in other quick service restaurants.
For their dimsum offerings, I got to try their Pork Shrimp Siomai, Shrimp Dumpling (Hakaw), Fried Wanton, and Beancurd Shrimp roll. Of the four, the beancurd has to be my favorite. The beancurd wrapper is crispy and flaky, and the filling is very tasty. The dipping sauce for me is just right, not too sweet, not too sour nor too salty. The siomai is definitely of good quality, with no traces of extenders or additives. Hakaw is quite good too and my second favorite among the four. Hakaw is not easy to make so I definitely applaud the chefs for this one. Their dimsum is priced at 85php for each variant.
Their fried breadstick is like a hybrid of churros and croissant. This flaky goodness is cut into 2inch rolls and best eaten with a dip or paired with their congee which we did. I admit I've never had a seafood congee before so I was definitely stoked to try Yumchee's version. Topped with scallions, their congee is made even tastier because of the mixed seafood. I will definitely come back for this one! For 159php, you will get a serving that is even good for 2 persons.
Their noodle soups are the next ones we tried: Beef Brisket and Wanton. Of the two, the beef brisket was the clear winner. I'm not a fan of beef but the meat was just so tender that you'll finish the whole bowl in no time. What made it even more yummy was the hearty and savoury broth, that tasted like it has been simmering for hours. Definitely recommended for cold or rainy weather! One bowl of noodle soup is priced at 159 php each.
For their set meals, we got to try the Chicken Chop, Orange Chicken and Sweet Sour Pork. For every main dish, you can order 1 side dish, all for 199php. We ordered steamed rice + soup, and vegetable fried rice + soup. The Orange Chicken definitely stole the show with its orangey goodness while retaining the crispiness of the chicken. The sweet and tangy sauce is so yummy that you'll be dreaming about it for days. No kidding, this is straight from experience.
The chicken chop (fried boneless chicken) was really good too, but I found that their gravy was slightly salty for my taste. Their Sweet Sour Pork is a good choice too, with the right balance of sweetness and sourness. The meat is tender too and best paired with steaming hot rice. Their egg drop soup is a nice addition, since I prefer to eat with a soup on the side always.
Our tummy was very full but of course we saved space for dessert. Their shaved ice with fruit toppings are simple but a nice way to cleanse your palate and a good way to end your meal. Honestly, I was expecting mango sago or almond jelly in their menu since they are a chinese restaurant, but I really did enjoy the shaved ice dessert. The milk was not too sweet, thus it didnt overpower the sweetness and taste of the fruit toppings. I loved the mango-kiwi combination as well as the strawberry-peach combo. This dessert is at 78php each and you can choose your own 2 toppings from the selection.
Dining in Yumchee means you'll get your favorite Chinese dishes in a very "sulit" package. They definitely didn't sacrifice quality ingredients so it doesn't feel like you're eating in a quick service restaurant. I will definitely be coming back for more.
Thanks to Marjorie G for inviting me to try Yumchee! :)

Of course just like tina's cat girl costume.

I am biased but that outfit looks better on Helena than the original owner.
I'm kinda biased as well but helena looks great in anything formal seems like. I still want her opera dress how is that so hard to add?

I'm actually curiious to see Helena in Leifang's black party dress, but in white. I think Helena is the only other female character that would look good in that outfit. Lisa just doesn't seem to do it for me.
Naw lisa looks very good in it imo. It seems everyone looks better in it than lei-fang but even she looks good in it :).

This is what I want but I want the real playboy bunny suits that tina had in doa1 and that she has on DOAX(and christie has on DOAX2). I don't mind getting older costumes but all we seem to get is swaps of costumes already in the game. At least give me the traditional playboy bunny suits and then swap those to the 4 you mentioned, they are the only ones mature looking enough to wear them.

If this trend continues... Mila will wear some ninja outfit at some point...LOL
If this DLC montage continues then TN will eventually make DOA Xtreme 3 and release more DLC's.
Women shouldn't stay in the kitchen and make sandwiches. We should join the "Battlefield."
DOAX series are probably one of the most boring games ever
imo if they want it to sell more it should have less costume content and more
sports / activities in it. make it like those mario sports games all in 1 say: tennis, volley ball
etc. and have small amount of costumes like 10 per char (all different types) with recolor
option left to the player like u can win points / money to buy dye and re-color them as u prefer. also making it last 14 days with 3 activities per day is too short it can just be removed
and play without the time line going over & over & over
also the idea of wasting time say for just a few seconds of gravrue video needs to be scrapped asap.
yes i used to own a burned copy of DOAX2 and sold it for 1$ to a friend after 2 days of pure torture "playing" that so called game.
having the game be like before with getting that huge collection just for 1 char can take half a year and making that the center of the game is just waste of time and loss of potential market. i might consider getting doax3 if its going to be mostly about sports if not i won't
even bother to play a burned version of it.

It's good to see Tina wear something casual and conservative for a change. Love the red glasses she's wearing. I'm guessing this is the State Governor outfit?.
What?! Her skirt cuts off at around her crotch, I think she buttoned one, maybe two of her shirt buttons, and you can see the straps of her stockings.
I don't know what your state politicians wear, but it ain't like this in Jersey!

True. TBH, I only enjoyed playing the jet ski in DOAX2 and my younger siblings only play the pool minigames. Those barrel rolls made me happy back in the day.

Pffft. Lol. She'd be the first to make such a fashion statement among politicians.
Nah more conservative attires are worn in my country and the closest thing to some politicians might wear is probably Christie and Miyako's business suits. (but of course, they wouldn't button the shirt inside the blazer that way)
