I'm not a type of person that drink alcohol or wine. As I remembered, I started drinking wine when I am already working. Since my job was dealing with our mother company at Geneva Switzerland most of the time they visited our company here in the Philippines, we treated them in a restaurant and some sort of wine drinking.

I stopped drinking wine when I got pregnant on my first baby, it's been 5 years ago. Now that I have a 2nd baby, I did not try to take a wine. Last December 2012, we celebrated the Christmas and new year (2012) we have a wine, so I decided to have just a little sip.  It was good!

I got even more interested in this wine tasting when I got an invite for the wine tasting at Cafe 1771. The ambiance is quite great and elegant with its dim light, it makes me feel sozy.   This time I tried to have another sip, just the right amount because I might trigger my allergies in alcohol again.  So, just a bit is enough to taste the flavor of the wine.



The bloggers event was hosted by Ms. Cecile Mauricio, who thoroughly explained all about wine. They told us that they are treating us from light to heavier food serving.  So for the appetizer, it was the Buffalo Chicken Wings which I love most and the Oyster Rockefeller with white one.  Ms. Mauricio taught us the proper way of drinking of wine, we should smell it and gently move the wine glass in circular motion before sipping it.



Next stop is the Holy Cow Pizza with rosewine the pasta and WineBar Burger with fries and bone marrow on the side with red wine. Isn't heavy now? Yes, it is.





Lastly the dessert, they served Bread Pudding with Vanilla Ice Cream on the top and of course a wine that super sweet, well I like most, because I love sweets.

This is very exciting and new learning and new experiences on a different side of our life. You can treat your love ones here as a romantic one because of the ambiance.
