KonsultaMD Waiting Time Video Call

KonsultaMD Video Call Waiting Time The First Time The first time we used KonsultaMD was via the app last June 2021. Globe had a promo that offered the first video call for free. It is so hard to use it because you'll be in the waiting room for a doctor and it will take so long that the app will log you out when you've been, as it says, "Idle for 10 minutes..." or something like that. BUT after multiple attempts for several days, we connected and it was a great experience. The doctor was kind, helpful, and we got what we requested. It will take a while for the app to reflect the completed call and consultation result, but it will be there in the files and you will get a text as well. Fast Forward to September 2021 We needed to video-consult with a doctor again so we registered for the P60/month subscription. But using the app was... Just NO.

My Super Easy Beef Caldereta

My Super Easy Beef Caldereta  I cooked this last night... My version of super easy beef caldereta!   INGREDIENTS (Only 3-4 ingredients /Serves 2 people /Cooking time <1.5 hours) 1.

Jollibee Tapa Ready-to-Eat

Tapsilog with Jollibee's Ready-to-Eat Tapa  Since the Covid-19 pandemic, a lot of the fast-food chains started to sell their food products marketed as ready-to-eat (RTE) that consumers can buy pre-packed. This one is Jollibee's beef tapa from their dedicated commissary. It is marinated beef tapa that you cook ala Jollibee style na medyo saucy pa... do not overcook it or else, it will become too salty and tough. Malasa na talaga sya for me at di na kailangan ng sawsawan. Very tasty and tamang-tama for "tapsilog."
