The three pillars of leadership of ABS-CBN in their first magazine cover together. Gabby Lopez, Charo Santos – Concio, and Carlo Katigbak come together for a historical feature commemorating the succession from one passionate leader to another, and what it takes to be at the helm of a company that is truly in the service of the Filipino.

In other special features, join us as we celebrate local entertainment. We delve into the world of film and what makes these pieces of fiction so moving that audiences are transported through time, into different worlds of drama and action and romance and comedy. We look into the past with a story of film restoration and take a peek into the future of the industry as we introduce you to the young producers, directors and actors that have made names outside the norms of pop culture, truly focusing on talent and hard work rather than relevancy and a fan base in our On The Verge Section.

This month has many interesting reads on what is new around the metro. Our Dining section features Bondi and Bourke, a restaurant featuring elevated comfort food, which is the brainchild of Australian Chef and owner Wade Watson. Delicious steaks, fresh oysters, and scrumptious meat pies all await in this Legaspi village gem. In the mood for something a little more relaxed? Make sure to leaf through our Entertaining with Flair section featuring the Chi Spa at the Edsa Shangri La hotel, perfect to cap off the relaxing day.

Of course no issue would be complete without the many socials that hit the city and allow me to paint the town red. Head on over to our party hopper section and get an all access pass to Tommy Hilfiger’s launch of tennis star Rafael Nadal as their new face as well as a big surprise for Presy Lopez.
