As someone who doesn't frequent clubs, I enjoyed the entirety of my night at House Manila. I stayed until Lady Trinity's set. I ended up going home at 4 in the morning. Someone has to let loose once in a while. Last Friday (15th May), House Manila teamed up with radio station, Magic 89.9, to an event called "People from Ibiza." They invited DJ Oliver Schmitz who flew in from Ibiza to Manila for a one-night only event. There were many people in the club that night but I didn't feel so suffocated by it! It didn't feel like we were all forced to be huddled in a cramped space. It was refreshing to be honest. It did leave an impression on me and my friends and I have decided to come back some time soon. House was full of yuppies, models and creative folk. You're sure bound to meet an interesting lot (of people). I know I did!

If you want to get a couch, you need to have a reservation so you'll need to talk to one of their promoters because if you decided to go walk in, the line would probably be long! Also, they close the doors at 12 midnight (I think) so keep that in mind. They have a huge range of drinks to choose from. Wear upscale as much as possible because they won't let you in if you're dressed down or wear too casual clothes. Shorts and slippers aren't allowed when it comes to the guys. And they also ask for a valid I.D. just to make sure you're legal. It's a fun place to party with your friends!

Our Uber had missed it at first because the building blends in with the surrounding buildings that look just like it. It's not a "cute" nightclub that plays top 40 electronic remixes that you can sing along and fist pump to. If that's your thing, don't go here. They play house music and I love this place for that reason. I'd return here if I was back in Manila. It's fun. The music is great. The vibe is great. I'd forgotten I was in the Philippines because many of the people there are internationals.

There are three floors to the club, the last one being an outdoor terrace with DJ and bar. The first two floors on the other hand are very dark, cloudy as you can smoke indoors and relatively small.

And "dancer" is used very loosely for a lot of them. The beefcake is ok to look at. But with all the muscles, it's really awkward to just watch them move to the beat. It hurts to watch. And when they take off their shirts, all you hear are the screams of little girls in the audience like it's a Chippendales club for straight women If you want to go for just a few drinks, don't expect to be able to stand anywhere to watch the entertainment or cruise for your fling that night. The tables are reserved for bottle service, which you have to book in advance. There is a cover charge equivalent to US $20 - this includes 2 drinks. Ok great. But the question has always been, where do you stand if you're just a visitor and you don't know about the table reservations?? Any little bit of extra space they might have is dedicated to the myriad servers they employ. It's not like you can stand casually at a bar the way you can at other bars/clubs So it's really for cliques of friends to occupy the tables that surround the stage, and definitely not a place to go to meet anyone new. That is fine if that's what you want Without a table reservation, you really feel like an outsider, and they say you can stand and drink your drink at a table, but you need to leave as soon as the people who reserved the table arrive It's basically dinner theater Don't get me wrong - the drag queens are good. If they weren't, they wouldn't have a RuPaul's Drag Race Philippines franchise Personally, I won't go back This place doesn't provide a good enough balance of worthwhile performances with talking to cute Filipino boys or travelers like us It's just sad that it's only one of maybe two gay establishments total in Manila

Manila is home to a super colorful LGBTQ+ community ranging from flamboyant outfits, conservative folks, and all in between. We were ready for performances and entertainment to blow us away. O'Bar in Ortigas Center has been around for several years now, it's been one of the more popular shows around. I've seen YouTube videos of Drag Race Philippines but haven't followed religiously like RuPaul's Drag Race, but when I see these ladies perform on stage, I know I'll recognize them. We planned on coming on a Sunday with a group of 5 of us, what we all agreed was purchase a bottle of alcohol and get a lounge VIP table. The club requires each person a cover fee which included 3 drink tickets. But with the price of a bottle, table rates are fully consumable which we planned on being out for a while. What surprised us the most was not only there was one round of production, after the GoGo dancers were complete with their number, another drag show came out in a whole new repertoire!

I have found myself in Club Haze twice now and I have quite some fun. I don't really drink when I am there because if you have friends like me who party like there's no tomorrow, there's usually someone who would have to volunteer to stay sane and sober until the morning, and hey big surprise, that's always me. Some tips/ comments/ suggestions: 1. Do not wear heels, unless you are a certified model who's practically lived in heels your whole life, then be my guest 2. If you need a break from all the noise, the CR is the perfect place to go to 3. You would always see a celebrity there, and you would always freak out

But Haze seems to have been able to defy these odds, having outlived so many of these clubs, and I think that it's largely due to it's size. The different thing about Haze is that it's much smaller than other clubs. While you would think that this is the reason why it wouldn't be as popular, I'd beg to differ. It's precisely because of it's size that while it still has the feel of the club, it still feels cozy, inviting, and it's patrons always find themselves coming back. I found myself in Haze with just one other girl friend one evening because, to be honest, we were bored. We wanted to go out, but didn't feel like going to a huge club with hundreds of people. So we got glammed up, and found ourselves standing in front of Haze. While a litlte bit hesitant at first, simply because it's impossible to tell what kind of crowd you'd find inside just by looking at it, it wasn't long before we were settling into our comfortable couch and having fun. The wait staff are attentive and efficient, the DJ on deck was spinning hits and remixes of popular 90s tunes, and we were actually looking around at a rather good looking crowd of different ages and nationalities. A pretty good Friday night if you ask me!
