2-in-1 business establishments that'll help you maximize your time
If you live in the City of Stars, then you're well aware that heavy traffic is one of the biggest problems in the city.
Although the government had already begun the construction of the MRT Line 7 and the Metro Manila Subway Line 9, two transportation options that'll hopefully ease the heavy traffic in the city; at the moment, we are left to our own devices on how we can lessen our travel time, and how we can be productive despite losing so much time in traffic jams.
Thankfully, we found three businesses that'll let us hit two birds with one stone, with their unique 2-in-1-business concept.
1. BuildPlus+ and Megawatt Pizza and Steak
BuildPlus+ and Megawatt Pizza and Steak
686 Banawe St, Quezon City, 1114, Metro Manila
This 2-in-1 establishment prides itself on being the first and only build, shop, and dine concept in Quezon City. It's basically a hardware store and restaurant rolled into one. Daddy can do his hardware shopping, while mom can buy some much-needed housewares in BuildPlus+. Then, the whole family can dine at its in-house restaurant, Megawatt Pizza and Steak, which serves electrifyingly good food, and has keto-friendly options for those on a diet. Plus, it's a pet-friendly resto.
2. Onesimus & Dark Specialty Coffee

2nd Floor, SM City North EDSA, Quezon City
If your dad, brother, BF, or a male friend is looking for a barong or suit to wear to a formal event, then you should definitely head out to Onésimus in SM North Edsa. And while waiting for him to pick a suit or have his measurements taken for a customized barong, you can enjoy some pasta and coffee in Dark Specialty Coffee, the coffee shop located just right inside Onésimus. Yup, you read that right. They have a coffee shop inside the Onésimus store. And another interesting thing about Dark Specialty Coffee is that they support local farmers by sourcing out their cacao tablets from Davao and their coffee beans from Benguet. So, if you shop and dine here, you'll also be supporting the local agri-business.
3. Quento
We said earlier that we found 2-in-1 business establishments, but Quento is actually three businesses under one roof. It's a laundry shop, a barbershop, and a restaurant. So just imagine how much time you'll save by not having to travel to three different establishments to do your laundry, have a haircut, and grab a bite. You'll certainly cut your travel time into half, and use your extra time for other important things. And here's an interesting info about Quento Tandang Sora branch: It is owned by celebrity couple Neri Naig-Miranda and Chito Miranda. So, if you're a fan, then you should absolutely check out Quento.
We hope our new discoveries will help you manage your time more wisely, and help you be more productive this 2020.
