Pops have been always known to be one of the finest performers in the industry. Her sold out concerts are more than proofs for that. As she enters the acting scene once again, she’s ever ready to face the whole new world of I Love Betty La Fea with full gear.

Pops will give life to Paulina, Aldo’s (Jericho Rosales) aunt. Her challenging role in the series will definitely spice up the story. How she will affect the life of Betty is something we all have to watch out for.

Bacolod Chicken Inasal’s BBQuito Paborito Ni Betty La Fea

Motivated by the success of Ysabella’s Chicken – which was the first special project of Bacolod Chicken Inasal (BCI) with ABS-CBN – the Philippines’ premiere chicken Inasal family restaurant has decided to concoct another tasty teleserye treat!

The result is not just one but eight delicious meals, all inspired by ABS-CBN’s well-loved primetime show “I Love Betty La Fea” that features Bea Alonzo in the title role.

The program’s creative team and Bacolod Chicken Inasal’s marketing team brainstormed and put on their culinary thinking caps and thought of two sets of dishes: one based on the simple, no-frills, and practical milieu where Betty La Fea resides, and another based on the posh and “sosi” environment of the Eco Moda advertising agency where Armando (played by John Lloyd Cruz) and Daniella (Ruffa Gutierrez) hold office.

Thus, taking heed of Betty La Fea’s love for street food, BCI came up with BBQuito Paborito ni Betty La Fea: six combos each with three sticks of barbecues (pork, chicken and “laman-loob” like gizzard, liver or “isol”), all served with garlic rice and Nestea iced tea. The barbecues are doubly flavorful because they’re dipped in sweet marinate and then basted with a secret barbecue sauce. The BBQuito Paboritios are BCI’s first-ever value meals affordably priced between P99.50 to P109.00.

Then there is the Eco Moda Especial set. Take your pick of two sumptuous feasts. The first, Pollo Galantina, is quartered chicken stuffed with meat, cheese and vegetables, accompanied with thick gravy. This gallantina is actually a treasured family recipe from the grandmother of the BCI owners.

Then there is also the healthy and mouth-watering Liempo Sabroso – roasted pork belly flavored with lemongrass and served with soy vinegar dip. The Eco Moda Meals are priced at only P225.

So if you want to save but still would like a yummy and filling meal, go for any of the BBQuito Paborito ni Betty La Fea. But if you can afford to splurge, try Eco Moda Especials.

Bacolod Chicken Inasal has branches at Edsa Central, Jupiter St., Greenhills, Quezon City Circle, SM City Sta. Mesa, Robinsons Place Ermita, Glorietta 4, Metrowalk, Forum Robinsons Pioneer, SM Megamall, Paseo Center, Trinoma, SM City Clark, Robinsons Otis, One E-ComCenter – SM Mall of Asia, One World Square McKinley, Fastbytes Filinvest and SM City Marikina and soon to open at SM City Baliwag and Summit Ridge Tagaytay.

Yup, you read it right. We were in EcoModa set last December 5, 2008.  We were handpicked for a visit to the EcoModa set of I Love Betty La Fea.

We were given a tour in the whole EcoModa set, from Betty’s desk, to Armando’s.   After our tour, Betty La Fea’s members Thou Reyes (Hugo) and Wendy Valdez (Patricia) joined us for a fun chat and some photos. They are so humble, very cool and not too mention very funny. They joined us for lunch. Thanks to Bacolod Chicken Inasal for a very special lunch.

In the middle of our lunch, John Lloyd arrived. He only passed by just to meet us. Isn’t that sweet? We had a small chit-chat. We learned that John Lloyd is still clueless about email, chats, blogs, and the like. So we gave him an idea about blogging. Also, John Lloyd confirmed that those John Lloyd’s account in Social Networking site of are fake.

Ruffa Guttierez joined us for lunch. Unlike John Lloyd, Ruffa has an idea on blogging. She even had a blog before. Bur due to her hectic schedule, she could not update her blog anymore. But she shared to us her KTXT which is basically an SMS daily journal.

If you want to chat with Ruffa, just text Ruffa On and send to 2366, for MMS Ruffa Yes and send to 2366.

The invasion ended with a group picture and giving of gift bags containing Betty and Multiply merchandise and a copy of the special I Love Betty La Fea edition of StarStudio Magazine. We also got anime loot bags courtesy of Hero TV.

This is really a fun event to remember! I really had fun! Too bad Bea Alonzo (Betty) is sick so she wan’t able to join us.

Here are some of our pictures:

Oh before I forget, we were on the front page of ABS-CBN official site. Here’s a screen shot:
