Looking for something interesting to do in Metro Manila over the weekend (preferably wine or spirits soaked, of course)?
Here’s a list of wine and cocktail events happening #rn:
My Vegan Wednesdays in Ralph’s Wines and Spirits Pasay Road (Jackson Building, 924 Arnaiz Avenue, Makati)
What’s Happening: Free flowing vegan friendly/organic wines paired with vegan friendly handcrafted cheese by In A Nutshell, vegan dips and spices by Chili Asylum, and chocolate vegan doughnuts by Green Bar (in partnership with PETA Asia) for P1,500/person. RSVP Jorge Joseph at 0917-8537501. Limited seats available, but they’re planning to make it a Wednesday thing. Can’t go wrong when wining for the animals, right?
Father’s Month in Federico’s Wine Room (C&C Building Aguirre Avenue, BF Homes Parañaque)
What’s Happening: Fellow Southeners, unite! Buy one in the bar, take one home promotion for Remole Toscana from Frescobaldi all month of June… Awesome idea for Father’s Day.
