The Week Started Right!

So it was Monday....BUT who would have thought that it would end right?!?:)

My officemate who was on a different department called me up at my desk and invited me to hangout after work to try the several brands of imported beer at Distillery in Jupiter St. So I tagged along my friends to make the night even more exciting. haha!

1st stop: Dinner at Som's Noodle House. It was my first time! I loved the food and the milk tea. Hehe. In fact, I was the only one in our group who ordered extra cup of rice!:))

I never thought a food stall like this would be found right outside the gates of Rockwell (Kalayaan Ave. side).

The best part of the night: The Distillery!

Lots of imported beer! I was able to sip a bit from the bottles of my companions, just to give me an idea of how those beers tasted hehe. But I influenced them to order a large bottle of Absolut Mandarin Vodka. haha! Really cheap. It only cost P800. However, they don't actually serve a bottle of Sprite...only flasks of it which cost P50. haha! Yeah, looked like we're doing a Science experiment on our table haha!


I think I have to mention that we had to walk a very far distance just to withdraw from the ATM. 'coz Distillery is not yet accepting debit and credit cards.

Anyway, I am officially tagging The Distillery as my favorite chill spot now. Besides the very relaxing ambiance, it also has a very nice crowd...plus no smoking inside! yey! My favorite part, an acoustic band starts to play a few minutes before midnight. They also encourage guests to jam with them through an open mic. They play the song while you sing or you can use your Ipod 'coz they have this device that converts your Ipod music into a minus one! Now, that's an instant karaoke! hahaha!=)) Oh, and jammers get a free tequila shot after singing with the band. Cool!

But the place is kinda small so it's hard to find seats if you'll come late. Also, there's no available food there....just purely alcohol. However, their staff still assist you when you wanna order food from the Portuguese resto beside it (but only while that resto is open).
Perfect Monday night!=)
