Cracking the Code: How to celebrate our busy dads this Father’s Day

Let’s face it: finding the perfect gift for our busy dads can be quite a challenge. They work tirelessly day in and day out, juggling their professional commitments with their role as a father. They’re always on the go, leaving little time for themselves, let alone for us to plan a memorable Father’s Day surprise.

https://flic.kr/p/2oGRewt

Here are a few reasons why it’s particularly hard to choose a gift for these extraordinary men.

Limited Free Time. Our busy dads rarely have a moment to spare. With their hectic schedules, they barely have the chance to relax and unwind. It’s crucial to find a gift that respects their time constraints while still conveying our appreciation.
Unique Interests. Every dad is different, with his own set of passions and hobbies. Some dads may be sports fanatics, while others may prefer indulging in gourmet cuisine or exploring the great outdoors. Finding a gift that aligns with their interests can be a puzzle we need to solve.
Balancing Act. Being a father and managing a career is a true balancing act. Busy dads often prioritize their family’s needs, making it even more challenging to pinpoint something that will truly make them feel special and recognized.

5 ways to celebrate Father’s Day with your busy dad

Now that we understand the predicament, it’s time to roll up our sleeves and get creative! Here are five foolproof ways to celebrate Father’s Day with your busy dad and make him feel cherished:

Plan a Surprise Family Outing.

Dedicate a day to creating unforgettable memories. Arrange a surprise family outing to his favorite park, restaurant, or even a sports event. Quality time with loved ones is priceless, and it’s an opportunity for your dad to relax and enjoy the company of his family.

Bring the Spa to Him.

Help your dad unwind and recharge by creating a mini spa experience at home. Draw a warm bubble bath, prepare a soothing face mask, and give him a rejuvenating massage. Show him that he deserves a moment of pampering and self-care.

Cook His Favorite Meal. Treat your dad to a scrumptious home-cooked feast. Whip up his favorite dishes or surprise him with a culinary adventure, trying out new recipes together. The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, after all!

Outdoor Adventure. If your dad enjoys the great outdoors, plan an adventure-filled day. Go hiking, fishing, or cycling together. Being in nature can be therapeutic and provide a much-needed escape from the daily grind.

Gift Dad with a Mocha Dedication Cake from Red Ribbon. Finally, the grand finale of our Father’s Day celebration is none other than a delectable Mocha Dedication Cake from Red Ribbon Bakeshop. This rich and moist mocha cake, which is the perfect balance of creamy coffee and rich chocolate and studded with crisp chocolate pearls, is the perfect way to show your dad how much he means to you. Pair it with a heartfelt message on the cake, and it’s guaranteed to make him feel truly special.

Father’s Day is not just an occasion to exchange gifts; it’s a day to honor and appreciate the incredible men who have shaped our lives. While finding the perfect gift for busy dads can be a challenge, it’s worth the effort to create lasting memories that they will cherish. Whether you choose to surprise your dad with a family outing, a spa day, a home-cooked meal, an outdoor adventure, or the delectable Mocha Dedication Cake from Red Ribbon Bakeshop, what truly matters is the love and gratitude you express. Celebrate your superhero dad in a way that resonates with him, and make this Father’s Day an unforgettable one.

Bored & Hungry is the California-based NFT-themed restaurant brought by the Tasteless Food Group to the Philippines, initially through limited-time popup stores at the Marriott Grand Ballroom and at Powerplant Mall’s The Grid Food Market. Now it has been given a permanent outpost at The Grid Food Market, making this Bored and Hungry’s first Asian branch.

Its claim to fame is its Bored OG Burger made with two all-beef patties smashed thin and grilled until crispy around the edges along with caramelized onions, slices of American cheese and house-made burger sauce encased in butter-toasted brioche buns. The OG burger has been cited by Good Morning America as America’s Best Burger of 2022.

Bored and Hungry is located at Stall No 7, The Grid Food Market, R2 Level Expansion, Power Plant Mall, Rockwell Drive corner Estrella, Makati, 1200 Metro Manila. (A second branch is also coming soon at Public Eatery, Fourth Floor New Wing, Robinsons Magnolia, Quezon City).
