OWM - Chocovilla

The weekend was spent visiting Chocovilla at Dubai Festival City. Consisting of a living room, library, bedroom, kitchen, and even a garden, the miniature chocolate home gives information on the origin of chocolate, various chocolate recipes, and live chocolate-making sessions.

This Smarties creation greets you at the entrance of the villa.


The dining table is covered with Nestle Gold. The centerpiece as well is all edible.


The highlight of the event is live chocolate carving done by multi-awarded Filipino artist, Henry Abigan. he is currently a Chef at Le Meridien Hotel, Dubai Marina.

After the thirty-minute tour inside the miniature home, we were given Nestle goodie bags :)

Our Weekend Memoirs - African Children's Choir

Over the weekend, we had the privilege to witness the African Children's Choir perform at Dubai Mall. These kids have performed around the globe to raise awareness on the plight of African children who have become orphans due to AIDS pandemic.

The children are aged seven to eleven. All of them have lost one or both parents to poverty or disease.

Their uplifting music brings shine to the heart and warmth to the soul. They are Africa's little voice to the rest of the world.
