Baskin Robbins : Ice Cream shop for kids

Baskin Robbins shops finally hit the Philippines, no longer in the form of just tubs, as what we used to see in some supermarkets.

Like all other food establishments today, competition can be tough for ice cream shops because apart from the challenge of pleasing the Pinoys’ palettes, which have started to become more discriminating, they will have to deal with the fact that ice cream parlors have suddenly mushroomed especially in commercial centers in Metro Manila.

Of all the ice cream specialty stores that I could think of, Baskin Robbins would stand out when it comes to its attraction to kids. Perhaps it’s the pink and blue color theme or the ice cream cake designs which are mostly for kids.

It’s no wonder that when my son and I passed by a branch in Greenbelt 5, he couldn’t help himself and asked for a cone-full of his own concoction.

In  addition, it’s great to know that Baskin Robbins Philippines is also participating in CSR endeavors, such as when it came out with ‘smiley cakes’ wherein 20% of its proceeds will support ‘Operation Smile,’ a foundation that helps children with cleft deformities. Kudos and keep up the good work!

    The Side Tripper

    “Make sure you don’t take any side trips,” warns Schumler, from a phrase in the 1993 American film Swing Kids. If you are someone who does not have time to lose, then it is better for you to stick to your main agenda, because there is something about side tripping that submerges the soul in experiences that sometimes make you hope that time would stand still, as the experiences they bring can be more impactful than the main trip itself. It is that free flowing agenda, an unexpected sleepover or a detour that has unintentionally brought pleasant surprises. You can live without it, like you can eat a cake without its icing, but your journey may not be as meaningful. If travel is the ‘best medicine for the heart’,* then for me, side trips are secret ingredients to the most memorable travels and other events that can happen in between or off the main route of one’s itineraries. Welcome to Side Tripper, a collection of photographs and blogs about the many side trip adventures of our family and friends. *Source: The Global Commission on Aging and Transamerica Center for Retirement Studies, in partnership with the U.S. Travel Association (Los Angeles Times, December 17, 2013 by Chris Erskine)
