generous love, generous cooking

according to eric, this was la germania's jingle (probably during his time...80's) with tina revilla as the endorser. hehehehehehehe :-)

i have been given the task to choose the appliances for our kitchen: cooktop, oven and rangehood. have you been to any appliance center lately? there are heaps of kitchen appliances to choose from! i know from the start that i want a gas cooktop and an electric oven. eric wanted a glass canopy rangehood. so that somehow narrowed down our choices. we have a budget we're working on so that too helped (goodbye miele and smeg!).

we need to have these appliances soon as our kitchen cabinets will be fitted based on the measurements of the appliances.

we're now seriously considering getting the la germania P680TX 600mm gas cooktop and F669D4X 600mm built-in oven. as for the canopy rangehood, we're thinking of a goldenhood C-900FG filtration canopy rangehood.

we're leaning towards a la germania since i was told by the salesman at one of the appliance centers that i went to that's it's better than other brands within our price range (eg. westinghouse) since it's a european brand and european made. i also mentioned to eric that our upright cooker at home in the philippines is a la germania and we had it eversince (we never changed upright cookers and my mama cooks and bakes a lot with it). eric checked with mommy what their cooker is at home and what do you know, it's a la germania as well! not only that, my sister-in-law's cooker at home is a la germania too! we therefore conclude that la germania is the official pinoy cooker. the 80's ad then has been very effective...
