Crispy fried chicken and biscuits, Popeyes is a 90's kid craving that left us without any trace after closing all of their branches. It left us craving for more than a decade!
Since mid-2018, the buzz around town about Popeyes return to the Philippines started and during that time everyone is not sure if it's another false rumor or the real thing. Finally, our questions were answered when Kuya J Group announced the return of Popeyes to the Philippine shores and we got the latest scoop on where they are opening up shop soon!

Eating our way to Blogapalooza: Horizons
2.0 Chibog Pinoy Style!
A little background. Blogapalooza is the Philippines’ first & largest
B2B: Business to Blogger event which aims to connect and match participating
businesses with bloggers that fit their needs to properly market their
business or brand.
First we checked-in
at the lobby, we headed to the 6th-floor pool & events area to get the fun
started. Then we headed straight to the tent where the talks are being held.
After sitting in for the talks, it's time to check out the booths outside and see who are the brands participating, but of course we will only tackle food and beverage booths because we like to Chibog right?
First booth that caught our attention is the Krispy Kreme booth because “Donuts”. (No explanations needed. Lol).
They have a mini create-your-own doughnut station where Blogapalooza attendees just need to download their mobile app and input the promo code.
Alex dipped his in chocolate and put tons of sprinkles.
Hungry and thirsty attendees are treated to a refreshing
break from San Miguel Food Avenue who served delicious
pastries & drinks for everyone. Just looks at how delicious their
booth looks!
Next, we visited the Vitamin Boost where we played a little
match the card game.
Alex got lucky and won a bottle of Vitamin Boos and a pillow.
Alex managed to toss a ring on one of the bottles and won himself a bottle! (Seriously?!Lucky guy. Too bad for me tho. lol)
L
astly, we visited the Kleiner Klopfer Philippines booth. In case you're not familiar with them, Klopfer originated from Germany and they have delicious shots that are perfect for parties!
Alex gave their Battle Ship style game and won himself a Cream Shot. (Okay, this is just his lucky day.)
Blogapalooza revealed their new brand called Buzzin by Blogapalooza - the country's first

brands really prepared a lot on their respective booths. I'm already looking
