[Title] => Mom’s the Champ: Marilu Toda-Batchelor
[Summary] => A cozy home, weekends spent at the ballpark and summer travelling to various exotic destinations are few of the things that make for a picture perfect life. To see one’s children win a tennis game or to be around as they watch a Formula One race is among a mother’s simple joys. Marilu Batchelor, a full-time mother to her two boys, James and William, and loving wife to The Peninsula Manila’s GM David Batchelor, takes great pride in being your quintessential mom.

[Title] => The Style of a Batchelor
[Summary] => This Batchelor is a wife, mother and woman of style. Marilu Toda Batchelor leaves a lasting impression on anyone she meets with her easy-going nature, enthusiasm and charm. Add to that an arresting smile and an effortless and elegant sense of style. It comes as no surprise that she captured the heart of handsome hotelier David Batchelor, now the general manager of The Peninsula Manila.

[Title] => Ringing in the New
[Summary] => There was not an inch to spare in the Manila Peninsula lobby, nor in any of the hotel’s restaurants. The crowd was that thick, with revelers starting to come from nine on.
To ring in the new, Hyperbeat, the Nonoy Lopez Band and Shoop played non-stop. The Pen’s creative director Anna Fay Rosal of the Flower Shop came up with the marvelous idea of bedecking the ballroom–from floor to ceiling–and the tables with black-and-white balloons.

[Title] => A dining adventure at the Pen
[Summary] => Oftentimes we are invited to join a group of foodies to try new dishes or when a new chef comes town we are invited to sample his specialities. Whether the reason for the get-together is a food promotion or a visiting chef, the key to enjoying the moment is to keep an open mind (and mouth!) and not to bring any preconceived ideas of food or cooking as excess baggage. In short, hope for the best and expect the unexpected. For taste is so relative. What is delicacy to one is simply poison to another.
