Headphone Review time: Humlan by UrbanEars

I will be honest, I’m a cheapskate. I do not like buying things that I think is overprice. If I find something I like that is too expensive for me, I will look for something similar in another place. Yes, even if it means going to Divisoria for it or going for second hand items.

I just recently got new headphones; I got the Humlan by UrbanEars. The number one reason why I got it is because the foam and the headband can be washed.  I was planning on using it while I jog (Which by the way I have not yet started). I will be following the same review as the one I did for my Masterpiece Headphone.

My Masterpiece Headphone pretty much looks like the Plattan by UrbanEars (79.90 USD) the Masterpiece is priced at around 13 USD. I can basically buy all the four colors that Masterpiece has plus one more.  I bought the more expensive one to check on one thing, is it true that the more expensive it is the better quality it has or is it still how one uses the item. Please note that I basically bough 2 Masterpiece, I was able to use the first one for about 6 months and the second one for about 4 months.

More about the Humlan by UrbanEars, priced at 59 USD on the site. I got mine at 2250 Php from AstroPlus. I made sure that I got the one with the wash bag. I was told that the first batch did not have the wash bag.

Here are the things you will have:

• The headset with mic (It has a remote but it can only pause the music or answer and drop a call)
• The washable parts (Headband and ear foams)
• The wash bag (which has another use)
• A product catalog (with the specs of all the product Urbanears has)
• A sticker (in the color of your pair)
• It’s comfortable to use even if you wear eyeglasses (It does not cover my ear too much unlike my old pair)
• Your music will not leak out (it does not even let you hear the music even if you place it behind your ears)
• It has ZoundPlug, that lets you share your music with the use of another pair of ear or headphones

Other information:

Colors: Black, Citrus, Forget me not, Julep, Clover, Cobalt, Coral, Dark Grey, Indigo, Lilac, Pumpkin, Tomato, and White

Cable : around 1m covered with thread (Thin)

Food Tripping: Zark’s Burgers Taft Avenue

Zark's Burger in Burgundy Taft Avenue

Ever since the Jawbreaker promo of Zark’s in 2012, I have planned to go and eat there as I have heard that their burgers can kill you as it’s really good. The problem before is I was still studying the budget was limited. I guess the talks about the price that it’s 250 plus taxes got to me and I really felt that it will be too much for one meal.

So after almost two years, I got to eat at Zark’s Burgers. Last Saturday, I and my partner finally go there. We are around 4:30 p.m, and we got in around 5 p.m. By the way, you have to get you seats reserved. If you see a line just by pass that and go to the person by the door and have your names listed.

As this was my first time there I really had a hard time in choosing what to get, even though I already checked the menu while waiting outside. We ordered the following Bacon Wrapped Burger and Jawbreaker.

The Menu

The Menu: Major League section

If you did not know, if you order Jawbreaker, you have the option to have it as a challenge or just the regular one. If you order it as a challenge, you will have to finish it in 5 minutes to get it for free. If you go for the challenge apparently the fries serving will be a lot more than the one on the regular serving.  You can do the same for the tombstone, finish it in 10 minutes and you get it for free. Oh it comes with unlimited Iced tea.

My Partner with his Jawbreaker

Zark's Jawbreaker is a burger with 3 burger patties, topped with spam
you have cheese in between the patties and veggies at the bottom
with fries on the side

I got the Bacon Wrapped Burger, it took a while to before it was delivered to our table but it was worth the wait. If you love bacon and burgers this is the right burger for you, but you better be ready as it’s all me can have you full in no time. (Yes I did not finish it. I just ate half XD)

It comes with barbecue sauce

Now, about the place, the have moved from Archer's Nook to Burgundy Taft Avenue. The place has a theme,Vintage and Sports. We saw a lot of photos about basketball and vintage style poster of a soda company. There is one thing I felt off about the place, they have too many people and yet, we felt like the service was slow or maybe they are just to busy as there are a lot of people waiting and dinning.

I like this place and we will come back for the deep fried snickers. Friends you have to come with me next time!
