KFC: Colonel Sanders' So Good, So Real Recipes

Wednesday, June 20, 2012
Truth be told, although I love scouting for unconventional and hole-in-the-wall dining destinations, I still can't and won't give up my love for inexpensive yet equally satisfying fast food -- one of which is Kentucky Fried Chicken commonly known as KFC, an American franchise serving the Colonel's Original Recipe Chicken for 45 so good years.
Colonel Sanders Autobiography

Being a big KFC fan, I was delighted to take part in an important event held at Diamond Hotel last May 30. You see, in Louisville, Kentucky, a secret manuscript written by Colonel Harland Sanders himself was discovered. And this prized memento doesn't only contain pages of his life story, it also houses 35 of his most treasured recipes.

The Secret Manuscript

Fortunately, the KFC people are generous enough to share with us their latest discovery. And take note, for free! The iconic Colonel Harland Sanders' autobiography and cookbook is now available online on KFC Philippines' official Facebook page. You can download the whole manuscript, or opt to just browse through some snippets.

There are only limited hardbound copies of the book worldwide. Luckily, I scored one during the event! (Now, I'll just have to follow it up since I haven't received my copy yet.)

With such a wonderful announcement, KFC also invited-in Filipino Celebrity Chef Sharwin Tee from the cooking show Curiosity Got the Chef to create his version of the Colonel's Hush Puppies -- one of the never-before-seen recipes from the manuscript.

The Food Served

Of course, such an event calls for good food. And to start off the lunch, we had some treats from KFC -- a bucket of Original Recipe Chicken and a carton each of the new Original Recipe Chicken Bites (P70), 5 bite-sized pieces of real chicken with the same eleven secret herbs and spices that make up the world-famous KFC Original Recipe.

After the KFC-licious start, we also had a 4-course meal prepared by Diamond Hotel. I won't be getting into much detail about the food they served in the event. But rest assured, everything was flavorful and satisfying both for the palate and for the tummy.

KFC's 45 So Good Years

With Colonel Sanders' So Good, So Real Recipes and the newly-launched Original Recipe Chicken Bites, you think things can't get any better. But since it's KFC Philippines' 45th anniversary, they bring us another good news. The Fully Loaded Meal Treat promo is extended until June 25. So if you haven't yet, feast on KFC’s Original Recipe Chicken, soup, mashed potato, brownie, and a drink for just Php 111, and enjoy a P72 discount from ala carte prices -- the biggest discount by KFC to date.

On a side note, we just ordered a KFC Bucket Meal with Brownies (P585) for the family yesterday. And although my dad isn't a fan of fast food, especially when he has to eat it for dinner, he surprisingly loves KFC's Hot & Crispy Chicken!

How about you, are you a KFC fan too?

  61. Warum ergonomische Stehschreibtische das Büro der Zukunft sind
    Das moderne Büro verändert sich rasant: Mobile Arbeitsformen, Homeoffice-Modelle und Coworking-Spaces erfordern flexibel nutzbare Arbeitsplätze. Gleichzeitig steigen die Anforderungen an Gesundheit und Wohlbefinden der Mitarbeitenden. Ergonomische Stehschreibtische spielen hier eine Schlüsselrolle: Sie verbinden dynamisches Arbeiten mit präventiven Gesundheitsmaßnahmen. In diesem Artikel zeigen wir Ihnen, warum ein Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar, ein Eckschreibtisch Höhenverstellbar oder sogar ein Gaming Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar das Büro der Zukunft prägen – und welche Modelle Ihren individuellen Bedürfnissen am besten entsprechen.
    Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar – das Herzstück moderner Arbeitswelten
    Ein Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar ermöglicht den schnellen Wechsel zwischen Sitz- und Stehposition. Dieser dynamische Wechsel beugt Rückenschmerzen, Nackenverspannungen und Müdigkeitserscheinungen vor. Gesundheitsstudien zeigen, dass regelmäßiges Stehen die Bandscheiben entlastet und den Stoffwechsel ankurbelt. Moderne Modelle verfügen über einen stufenlosen elektrischen Antrieb, der Flüsterleise arbeitet und Lieblingshöhen speichert. Ob im Open Space, Einzelbüro oder Homeoffice – der höhenverstellbare Schreibtisch ist die zentrale Säule eines bewegten Arbeitstages.
    Eckschreibtisch Höhenverstellbar – platzsparende Ergonomie
    In vielen Büros ist Platz Mangelware. Ein Eckschreibtisch Höhenverstellbar nutzt ungenutzte Ecken optimal aus und schafft großzügige Arbeitsflächen. Die L‑Form ermöglicht getrennte Zonen für Bildschirmarbeit und Unterlagen, ohne die Bewegungsfreiheit einzuschränken. Elektrische Motoren heben beide Tischschenkel synchron, sodass beide Arbeitsbereiche in jeder Höhe ergonomisch bleiben. Diese platzsparende Variante ist ideal für kleine Homeoffices oder Teamarbeitsplätze, an denen mehrere Personen zeitversetzt oder gemeinsam arbeiten.
    Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar Kurbel – robust und stromunabhängig
    Nicht immer steht ein Stromanschluss direkt am Arbeitsplatz zur Verfügung. Ein Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar Kurbel setzt auf manuelle Technik: Gasdruckfedern oder Kurbelmechanik heben die Platte stufenlos, ohne Kabelsalat oder Stromkosten. Die geringen Anschaffungskosten und der wartungsarme Betrieb machen diese Variante besonders attraktiv für temporäre Arbeitsplätze, Werkstätten oder Veranstaltungsräume. Zusätzlich fördert die Kurbelbewegung unbewusst Mikrobewegungen der Arme und Schultern, die den Kalorienverbrauch leicht erhöhen.
    Schreibtisch Kinder Höhenverstellbar – ergonomische Förderung von klein auf
    Ergonomie endet nicht mit dem 18. Lebensjahr. Ein Schreibtisch Kinder Höhenverstellbar wächst mit dem Kind mit und fördert gesunde Sitz- und Stehmechanismen bereits im Schulalter. Einfache Hebel- oder Kurbelmechaniken erlauben auch jungen Nutzern, die Höhe intuitiv anzupassen. Bunte Designs steigern die Motivation, während stabile Materialien Sicherheit garantieren. Untersuchungen belegen, dass bewegungsfreundliches Lernen die Konzentration und kognitive Leistung von Schülerinnen und Schülern verbessert – eine Investition in die Zukunft.

  62. Gaming Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar – Komfort für lange Sessions
    Auch in kreativen Agenturen und Medienabteilungen kommen häufig Gaming Schreibtisch Höhenverstellbar zum Einsatz. Diese Tische zeichnen sich durch robuste Oberflächen, Getränkehalter, Kopfhörerhaken und durchdachtes Kabelmanagement aus. Lange Arbeits‑ oder Gaming‑Sessions führen ohne Positionswechsel zu Verspannungen in Nacken und Schultern. Mit einem flexiblen Gaming-Desk wechselt man einfach in die Stehposition, löst Muskelblockaden und hält den Kreislauf in Schwung.
    Computertisch Höhenverstellbar – spezialisiert auf Bildschirmarbeit
    Ein Computertisch Höhenverstellbar ist speziell für intensives Arbeiten am Bildschirm ausgelegt. Er bietet eine separate Tastaturablage, integrierte Monitorarm-Halterungen und ausreichend Tiefe für Laptop und Zusatzbildschirm. Diese Funktionen ermöglichen eine präzise Einstellung von Bildschirm- und Tastaturhöhe, wodurch Nackenverspannungen und Sehnenscheidenreizungen deutlich reduziert werden. Besonders in IT‑Abteilungen und Redaktionsbüros zahlt sich dieses ergonomische Feintuning aus.
    Schreibtisch mit Tastaturauszug – Feinjustierung für Hände und Arme
    Ein Schreibtisch Mit Tastaturauszug ergänzt die Höhenverstellung um eine weitere ergonomische Ebene: Die Tastatur lässt sich in eine separate Ebene unter der Hauptplatte einschieben, in der Ellbogen und Handgelenke in einer neutralen Position ruhen. So werden Verspannungen im Unterarmbereich vermieden und sehnische Überlastungen reduziert. Gleichzeitig bleibt die Hauptfläche frei für Unterlagen oder Tablets.
    Schreibtisch mit Schubladen – Ordnung und Effizienz vereint
    Ein aufgeräumter Arbeitsplatz steigert die Konzentration und reduziert Stress. Ein Schreibtisch Mit Schubladen schafft diskreten Stauraum für Ordner, Stifte und persönliche Gegenstände. Soft‑Close‑Mechaniken garantieren leises Schließen, während modulare Einsätze eine individuelle Organisation ermöglichen. So bleiben Ihre Arbeitsmaterialien geordnet und griffbereit, ohne die Tischplatte zu überfrachten.
    Tischgestell Höhenverstellbar – stabil und zuverlässig
    Hinter jedem beweglichen Tisch steht ein Tischgestell Höhenverstellbar, das Stabilität und Langlebigkeit gewährleistet. Achten Sie auf leise Motoren oder hochwertige Gasfedern, eine Tragfähigkeit von mindestens 100 kg und Sicherheitsfunktionen wie Antikollisionssensoren. Pulverbeschichtete Stahlrahmen oder Aluminiumprofile bieten Korrosionsschutz und robuste Optik. Ein modulares Gestell erlaubt späteres Nachrüsten von Monitorarmen, Ablagen oder Beleuchtungselementen.
    Bürostuhl Ergonomisch – perfekte Ergänzung für Sitzphasen
    Ein Stehschreibtisch entfaltet sein volles Potenzial nur in Kombination mit einem Bürostuhl Ergonomisch. Verstellbare Rückenlehne, Lordosenstütze, Sitzneigung und -tiefe sowie adaptive Armlehnen ermöglichen gesunde Sitzphasen. Synchronmechaniken fördern leichte Bewegungen und aktivieren die Rumpfmuskulatur. Atmungsaktive Polsterungen verhindern starkes Schwitzen. So entsteht ein harmonisches Zusammenspiel aus Sitzen und Stehen.
