I was able to take numerous pictures, and I didn't have to worry about my table manners. Instead of us asking each other to pass the heavy trays or dishes around, we just excused each other for reaching for the food. With my luck, if I tried to pass or receive a dish, I would drop it. The food was delicious! We started off with the Pate de Jamon, and we ate that like there was no tomorrow. The La Cata de los Tres Olivos and the Tabla de Manchego were wonderful with our 3 orders of Jamon. I enjoyed eating the Ensalada con Queso with the Jamon, Pork and Steak dishes. The luscious appetizers, savory meat dishes, delightful Crema de Queso and Tocino de Cielo deserts is a good reason why my niece booked a reservation for her birthday in December. If you're coming here for their Jamon and wine pairings, don't come here when it's time for the elections like we did. Now we know why we had the second floor to ourselves.

I believe The Curator had previously been listed in Asia's 50 Best Bars and rightfully so, as the quality was obviously there in each drink we ordered. There was something unique but also familiar; some cocktails were ridiculously smooth, clean tasting and presentation was on point. Drinks are not surprisingly on the higher side, but it was definitely worth it. Full review: purplecuriosity.wordpress.com/2020/02/16/the-curator-coffee-and-cocktails/

Okay, I honestly thought I wouldn't be able to try this restaurant out anytime soon, as it literally takes a small fortune to eat here. I was lucky, however, that my boss treated the team out to dinner at Sala. I did have a minor heart attack upon seeing the menu, but it does look inviting. I had an order of Lamb Cutlets, which was cooked to perfection. The dessert was absolutely divine as well. I'd love to come back here someday, preferably with a hot date.

If you've walked around the area, you will have seen the champagne bar Monopole beside BSA Suites…read moreand wondered what it was. I've just had the privilege of wining and dining at Monopole as I let the traffic pass on a Friday night. I don't regret taking my friend's invitation for this place! My friend and I finished a bottle of Gamay, a young red wine that they usually only serve by the glass. Since we had already consumed two glasses, they gave the bottle to us anyway at a little less than 4,000 pesos. That's a bit pricey for a Beaujolais wine, but we were liking it and didn't feel like going for anything heavier. During our stay, we were served table snacks. To sate our growing appetites, though, we also ordered their meatballs. Organic, they said, with truffle - and not truffle oil, from what we could taste, because the truffle wasn't overwhelming; it flavored the meatballs just right. Monopole is a nice, intimate venue for wine exploration or enjoyment. They offer glasses of wine in tasting servings to full pours, though longer conversations may require the bottle itself. Connoisseurs won't be disappointed with the classics they have from the main wine regions of France, the Super-Tuscan blends they have from Italy, and even a few choice vintages from Napa or South America. Don't expect any meals at the place, though, so come for pre or post dinner drinks.

Smoked Fish Spaghettini (280 PHP) A decent plate of pasta that remained warm enough to enjoy even after 15 minutes of shooting. The overall seasoning is balanced and light in flavour, which fits the perfectly done pasta. Mixed Cold Cuts and Cheese Platter (580 PHP) This is the platter to pair with your wine night with friends. Oddly enough you don't save by getting this platter, individually the cheese (210 PHP) and Meat (380 PHP), but it's a pair to pair with wine. Cheese Pesto Pizza (430 PHP) There are 2 kinds of pizza lovers; the dough don't bother me feels so good or the top heavy toppings fanatic. I'm a dough lover and places that I get dough are Salvatore Cuomo and Motorino Pizzeria - I enjoy the thin and chewy kind that stretches and is lovingly soft. Vitto's pizzas are thin and have that feel good dough I seek, it's decent dough... As for the toppings it fairly average, cheese and pesto with some tomatoes. Crispy Bacon (195 PHP) Deep fired to a crisp and satisfying crunch that's ideal as bar chow (pulutan) Chicken Ragu (250 PHP) Chicken breast fillet stuffed with carrots, cheese, and mornay sauce, breaded, fried, and sliced. Pasta Al Funghi (240 PHP) Creamy good pasta with the right thickness of sauce. I enjoy the even coat and mix.

They were supposed to close already... but agreed to stay open longer for us. The airconditioned area is small and can only fit around 8 people. They do have a lot of tables available outside. They only serve wine, pretty reasonably priced too for an entire bottle of wine. I got their Sangria. It was a little too sweet for sangria but it wasn't too bad. It was also a generous serving for only Php290! My friend and I were super happy to find out they have Caviar Pie! For Php220, it was a good serving of caviar pie too. They did give us very few crackers in proportion to how much caviar pie there was. We had to order an extra pack of crackers. We were happy to end up in this nice cozy place!

It's hard to whine when it's just wine, but to dine is another line…read more The wine club has been retailing California wines for over 10 years at prices lower than anyone else on the market, being that they are the main distributor of such. Bottles start from around 700 pesos and the best part is the no-surcharge for in-store consumption, but service charge will be added on, which is fair enough since wine glasses are provided. Simply pick a bottle and have them serve the wine, that feature is a solid 4.0, but held back by their food, which is a sorry 2.0 on average. We were Driven to believe that a bottle of red wine would suffice both the 4 cheese pizza and the meat pizza, but the cheese pizza pairs better with white wine. The 4 Cheese Pizza (490 PHP) is a combination of blue cheese, parmesan, goat cheese, and mozzarella, which in totality is fairly a decent topping, though the dough was dry in performance. The Meat Pizza (500 PHP) just doesn't work in composition, it's a work in progress, which is a new a direction for this once purely retail shop. Overall, Come for wine and dine elsewhere and you'll be fine.

Planet Grapes is located at Shangri-La Plaza. It's interior is really nice and modern. You order your food on these tablets which is cool.

You can order the amount of alcohol you want to, I forgot the exact sizes but it was something like a sip, half glass, full glass or whole bottle. The was pretty cool since they don't really offer those options in the U.S. It makes it convenient if you want to go wine tasting and try out several options. For my meal, I ordered the Zucchini Penne Telephono Pasta. It tasted just alright. My uncle ordered the Fish and Chips and he enjoyed his food. Maybe next time I come back I'll just order a few wines and a cheese board. Great place to get your wine fix in the Philippines!
