MANILA, Philippines - If you haven’t begun Christmas shopping yet, you’re already a little late. The maddening traffic has already begun in Divisoria and Greenhills towards Virramall. So if your Christmas gift list is not complete yet, better start completing it now, then start shopping! Inevitably, there is a person or two on your list that already seem to have it all. They can afford any appliance, gadget, clothing, or accessory they want. So what else can you give them?
1. Overnight resort booking. Expensive? Not necessarily. With the plethora of online promo sites such as Groupon.com or Pakyaw.com, overnight resort stays can cost less than P1,000 and that’s for two people already. So if your loved ones are a couple like your mom or dad, or your parents-in-law then it’s a perfect gift you can give them, at a price you can afford.
2. Spa/salon vouchers. People who have it all are often busy people who tend to forget that they need to relax and pamper themselves once in a while. They may think of relaxing sometimes, but they would normally decide instead to invest their spa money back into the business. Spa vouchers or salon vouchers will give these special persons the gift of guiltless relaxation and self-pampering.
3. High-quality dinnerware. There are two great things about high-quality dinnerware: first, everyone needs to eat, so these will inevitably be used and not just kept. Even if your loved ones already have their own high-quality dinnerware, these things are bound to wear out after years of use. It’s always good to have a fresh set for when company comes. And company always comes at Christmas, so your gift will most likely be used sooner rather than later.
Second, high-quality dinnerware can be and often are passed on to future generations. You are, therefore not just giving a gift to your friend but also to his/her immediate descendants. Talk about priceless!
When it comes to high-quality dinnerware, you need to look no further than the most trusted brand of kitchen and dinnerware in the country Chef’s Classics by Sunnex Products Limited Hongkong. This company, which has been bringing high-quality kitchenware to the Philippines for 20 years, has come up with its elegant new product line of pure white vitrified glazed ceramic dinnerware called Orion.
Vitrified means that something was heated to such a high temperature, it has turned to glass. This means the dinnerware is highly resistant to heat and very sturdy. The elegant Orion line of wide- and narrow-rim plates, square plates, pasta plates, oval platters, steak platters, and soup bowls are all microwave and dishwasher safe. A steak knife will never leave marks on their strong glaze-protected finish.
The dinnerware pieces are so valuable, it was originally offered only to the top hotels in the country. But now, it is also available to households, allowing us to bring a little hotel elegance and luxury into our own dinner tables.
The complete Orion line also includes rice bowls, cereal bowls, salad bowls, fruit bowls, creamer bowls, coffee cups, tea cups, cappuccino cups, saucers, stacking mugs, coffee pots, teapots, gravy boats, condiment sets, and even ash tray. Give one piece or a whole set platter set to your loved ones, and if they know good quality, they will surely appreciate your gift.
You can get the Chef’s Classics Orion line at leading SM, Robinsons and selected outlets nationwide. To know more on Chef’s Classics, log on to www.ljs.com.ph/LJS/, or “like” www.facebook.com/ChefsClassics on Facebook.
