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/

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.

Last weekend we rolled in around happy hour, grabbed some loaded nachos and wings that hit way better than your average bar food (that Sofitel polish really shows), and just vibed with the pool view in the background. Staff were super friendly, kept the drinks coming without us even having to flag them down, and the whole place has this fun, laid-back energy that makes you forget you're in a hotel. Perfect for pre-gaming before a concert at MOA Arena or just unwinding after a long week. Easily 5 stars--will keep coming back.

On these rare occasions of doing guy things with my friends (unfortunately us girls can't always choose shopping, coffee shops, mani-pedi, brunch, or wine bars as a bonding activity), we would end up bowling or at a pub/sports bar. SNAPS bar is one of the places we go to for some beer and to shoot some pool then go hang out by the bay for sunset or hang out just after sunset. Drinks are hotel priced so expect to pay a little bit more than your usual pub. Service is good and the bar chow is what you would expect from a hotel bar. There's also happy hour from 5-8PM so that can also be an alternative venue for some post-work drinks or apero. Just a word of caution: try not to drink too much, otherwise, you may end up gambling at the casino just next to it!

Here's what my girl friends and I ordered:…read more We started with the Chorizo and Cheese Platter. I super enjoyed the chorizo's salty goodness that could be toned down with the cheese. This platter also comes with some crackers and sweet grapes. However, the appetizer I enjoyed more is the Jamon Serrano - oh goodness! I wanted to order some rice, but since we still had our mains, I controlled myself. :p I least liked the Pollo Empanadas and Pulpi ala Gallega. The former was dry save for the breading (which tasted good) and accompanying salad, while the latter was too gummy and had a burnt taste. For our mains, we had the Espaguetis con Gambas al ajilio and their paella, which were both delicious! The pasta's garlicky flavor wasn't overpowering and the shrimps were succulent! The paella, on the other hand, was so flavorful that even though we've had our fill of carbs already, we still managed to finish everything - simot! :D For desserts, we tried the Tocino del Cielo, Chocolate soufflé, and Churros con chocolate. I enjoyed the soufflé the most because of its rich flavor and smooth texture. We paired everything with refreshingly goo red wine sangria.

A waitress was first taking an order and in the middle of it left without telling us why. Then our order arrived 45 minutes later. The only food I will recommend is the Paella. Then we waited for 1 more order we placed. After 45 minutes of waiting we followed up and our waitress forgot to place the order. I am freaking PISSED. This millennial waiter that was serving us did not apologize and all the time he was serving us he looks like he does not care if he provides a poor service. We asked for bottled water. He said oh our water is not called so I will just give you ice. The ice never came. I HATE THE SERVICE OF THIS PLACE. I don't mind paying for expensive food but service is more important. I will not recommend this restaurant. If management wants to contact me I can tell you the time and date we where there. There were only 4 tables occupied. Those two people should be coached on customer service.

Smaller menu, but a good variety of choices to share. We got a bunch of plates to share amongst the table, but they're also a good size if you want a meal to yourself. The crispy pata, calamari, and sisig were our favorites of all our visits. Also have a good bar menu. They were out of about a third of the menu during our visit, but what we did end of ordering was decently enjoyable. The Hiyas and the Isla were good. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and we had no problems in getting a walk-up table. Great music playing. Menu was a bit overpriced - probably due to being inside of Seda. And they were also out of a few of the things we tried to order. Good choice for a nice night out with a great view of the city. Perfect choice if you're staying at the Seda and want to grab a bite to eat or a drink and don't want to leave the hotel. Would 100% recommend this for dinner over Misto.

Apart…read morefrom the fact that I was impressed the restaurant supports the cause for agreeing to participate, they also made it extra special because Chef Markus Gfeller prepared two four-course fine dining menus (one of them, a vegetarian option) specially for the event! Oh, did I also mention that there was a choice of bottomless Beringer red or white wines for your classy drinking pleasure? The place is just superb and huge, with a relaxing atmosphere that glows with the afternoon sun. And at night, the it gets more romantic with its warm lighting. The food was overall satisfying and different. I especially liked the pomelo sherbet dessert above all that I dream about it from time to time. It was a totally new experience to me who isn't a huge fan of wines overall. I enjoyed the white wine though. It is very..."potent", to say that in a less elegant manner. That said though, in a normal day, I wouldn't spend so much in a place like CAV. Perhaps at another fund-raising event when I know my money will save lives.

Parking was a breeze as well (street parking in front of the restaurants at Tuscany). Their place is very purple-lighted (because grapes) and they have tables inside for large groups and outside for their smoking area. They played throwback songs (because TBT) which made my stay worthwhile. They sell wines by the bottle and by glass (sip, half, full sizes) and I was told that the wines by the glass were arranged according to their taste from "dry" to "sweet". At first glance, wines that are sweet are more expensive, but there are cheaper ones that are sweeter than some. Tried red and white, in the range of mid sweet and not as expensive. I'm glad staff gave tips on which to get. I also got their bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar which is one of the cheapest appetizers to go with both red and white wines. They don't have a happy hour promo but I heard from a friend they had this unlimited promo last year around July. I'm hoping to catch it and visit again soon!
