I went to my first Kapihan Sa SM in Dasmarinas

SM Dasma recently held their "Kapihan Sa SM" which is aimed to talk and promote the activities, products, and events of brands within and outside SM Supermalls, and the local government. The Kapihan meet was attended by Dr. Emmanuel Calario, President of Cavite Historical Society, Museo De Lasalle Director Cecile Gelicame, Ms. Xandra Ramos-Padilla, managing director of National Bookstore, Papemelroti President Mr. Robert Alejandro, Classico Mobilario Supervisor Mr. Jose Marie Chan and SM Dasma Mall Manager Ms. Editha Tayko.




Dasmarinas is an hour's worth of drive from my place in Las Pinas. Two if you count the traffic, but then lately, all people know about Cavite and Las Pinas is traffic, green lands turning into bustling cities and more traffic. Kinda sad that most people who went here don't even know much about the history or origins of the place they decided to move into. Which is why this month's kapihan sa sm's guests are centered on spreading the good word on the beginnings of Cavite, complete with Museum Tours, History books and maybe some stationaries, pens and a big old desk where to write and log your account of history, today.

Papemelroti Beginings If you're curious on what Papemelroti really means, it is actually a mix of the names of the owner's children, Patsy, Peggy, Meldy, Robert, and Tina.  They are the children of Benny and Corit Alejandro, who started the business. Currently residing as president, Mr. Robert Alejandro created a cute and creative video on what they did as a child, how they opened their first branch at Ali Mall in Cubao. He fondly discussed that it was also the children who were up at the cashier, it was them who created some of the decorative pieces and accessories that we see then and now.
