2013 Manila Series
Have you been to a DAISO store? I see it as a Japanese version of the American dollar stores..but MUCH better. They are not just cheap in price, but they are also cute and usually colorful items that are practical for our homes. I’m sharing some of the cool kitchen goodies I saw while shopping in Robsinsons Galleria Mall in Metro Manila.
Oil splatter guard. Ingenious. I love cooking Chinese food, especially with lots of “wok hei” or high heat. But “wok hei” usually means LOTS of splatters too. This is a cool product, although I think the manufacturing company should come up with nicer designs that matches home kitchens in America.
Pasta Ruler. I’ve done it many times and I’m sure you must have too. I’d cook too many pasta when I’m only feeding one. Then, because I am raised not to waste food, I’ll gobble them up anyway and feel stuffed after the fact.
I’ve never seen one of these before, but I think this pasta ruler is perfect for measuring just the right amount of pasta. No more wasting of good pasta! The numbers indicates the number of people the quantity can serve. Loveee it!
Bento boxes. This DAISO branch carried a variety of lunch boxes too.
CUTE Erasers. Let me repeat..CUUUUTTTEEE. These mini-erasers are too pretty. They came in a variety of food designs that looks so real. It is almost a waste to really use them as erasers.
Below is little dessert on a stick, some nice warm green tea.
Juicy Fruit Pencil Cases. Oh my. These gums bring up memories. I used to buy singles of Juicy Fruit gums from street vendor outside my school in middle school. I’m not even sure if Juicy Fruit is sold here in the States…
These pencil cases are adorable. I probably would own one too if they made these back then. He he..
I can’t wait to visit other DAISOs. Have you been to one? Which one is your favorite?
