#NoelBazaar2016
Noel Bazaar, the country’s leading holiday shopping event opened last Nov. 18 and will continue until the 30th at the World Trade Center. I visited yesterday with my sister Mikka, to shop and beat the Christmas Rush and I got some pretty unique items for myself and for gifting that I was so happy about! I kinda got dizzy with the huge space and number of shops there but that’s good right? Lots of good options, indeed. And let me share that to you below.
Aside from shopping, there are lots of activities as well to make our shopping festive! Make sure to catch the exciting line-up of activities from makeup (see my schedule below) and blogging/photography workshops (featuring my co-bloggers), demos, fashion shows to games, raffles and variety shows featuring your favorite GMA Kapuso celebrities and more! Event highlights include the GMA Celebrity Ukay-Ukay and Auction featuring GMA Kapuso artists – Ruru Madrid and Gabbi Garcia, Miguel Tanfelix and Bianca Umali, and with special participation of Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza.
What’s also good is that Noel aims to benefit the GMA Kapuso Foundation, Bantayog ng mga Bayani Foundation and Associate Missionaries of Assumption, along with the Noel P. Gozon Medical Clinic and the Sts. Peter and John Parish. My blog is sponsoring this bazaar, let’s support entrepreneurs and these organizations this Christmas, yes?
You can win tickets to this bazaar on my IG, and don’t forget to visit Mikka’s Closet booth too, our baby brand in bazaars =)

This is my next favorite in bazaar’s and let’s start with Fronen sausages priced at P150 in Noel Bazaar. I really love how premium the sausages and deli meats are, you can really taste it. My favorite is the hungarian variant which is made with select fine ground beef and pork mixed with their blend of paprika, black pepper and other spices.

Fronen sausages and charcoal black bun WHOA, looks amazing!!
- Native Gourmet
- Fronen is only distributed in Rustan’s so I like that they’re cooking sausages for us here!
- C&E company distributes Fronen in PH!
- Dolce Latte is love – check out their cakes and pastries. I always go to the Timog and Mega fashion hall branches. I hope they served coffee!! Soon, they will serve Fronen in their branches!
- At Tiffany’s Fusion Cafe
- Dory’s Lambanog!
There are two more legs (Dec. 15-18 at SMX Convention Center and Dec 2-4 at Filinvest Tent, Alabang) this holiday so save these dates too and see you there!
