                    [Summary] => At last, after having been operational for a little over a month, the latest hot spot in town, Citrus, had its formal opening.


As expected, the place was filled to the rafters. Smokers converged on the charming outdoor area of the former V Bar. Louie Ysmael welcomed guests as Moet & Chandon flowed freely throughout the night. 


Citrus is the newly renovated (by Anton R. Mendoza) V Bar which has become a popular night hangout. It is also known as the preferential bar for people to hold their birthday parties. The new bar has a refreshing orange and lime theme.

Guests were able to sample some of these products during the event, which witnessed the birth of this company that is "powered by nature and inspired by science."

What was the longest time you have spent in Absinth?

Manila always comes up with unique concepts to use as an excuse for a celebration, and this time it was the first Adidas Sports Ball which was held at the Adidas sports center at the Fort. Unlike the usual ostentatious balls and sports events, the setting was similar to a JS prom held on campus. Bleachers and podiums were set up for the guests to freely show off their own stylized Adidas get-up. The night was a display of various personalities and how Adidas reflects their characters.

Halo club located at the end of Mile Long in Amorsolo Street is indeed pumping with zest. I have seen the hip circuit assembly and solicited questions describing this new home of exuberance. Here are the answers to our questions of why we should dance our way to halo and praise Halo-luia!


Mico Mendoza


How do you describe the vibe at Halo?

                    [Summary] => Thirtysomethings have come home. 	They had been orphaned by the metro nightlife. Young, crowded clubs or ballroom dancing are not their thing. When retro-themed events were offered, they came out of hiding and let their hair down. Now even the Gen-Xers are joining in the no-holds-barred night following their older counterparts. Will this be a fad or a regular offering in Manila?

Last year, we noticed that costumed partygoers chose to do the rounds of the many parties mostly in the areas of Makati, Malate and the Fort. 


Despite that, Malate continues to be THE destination not to be missed every year with its colorful characters donning their fantasy costumes that took all of one year to plan.

                    [Summary] => Manila’s club scene is resilient! The arena never ceases to amuse me especially since another hub will be added to Manila’s nocturnal dweller loop. Halo club located at the end of Mile Long in Amorsolo Street is indeed pumping with zest. I have seen the hip circuit assembly and solicited questions describing this new home of exuberance. Here are the answers to our questions of why we should dance our way to halo and praise Halo-luia!

How do you describe the vibe at Halo?

                    [Summary] => Thirtysomethings have come home. 	They had been orphaned by the metro nightlife. Young, crowded clubs or ballroom dancing are not their thing. When retro-themed events were offered, they came out of hiding and let their hair down. Now even the Gen-Xers are joining in the no-holds-barred night following their older counterparts. Will this be a fad or a regular offering in Manila?

                    [Summary] => Nocturnal Manila had a grand time with so many events to go to this last week. A couple of years ago, parties during Halloween were limited to a few places. Last year, we noticed that costumed partygoers chose to do the rounds of the many parties mostly in the areas of Makati, Malate and the Fort. 


Despite that, Malate continues to be THE destination not to be missed every year with its colorful characters donning their fantasy costumes that took all of one year to plan.
