[2019-Oct-03] Trying to find this rooftop bar even in these times of Waze, Googlemaps, etc. can be a challenge. Unless I missed it, there was no other more visible signage except for these ‘posters’ on a wall perpendicular to the road and it is even partially obscured from the road. You can’t even read ‘Kartel’…

Alegria Cozinha Moderna & Sangria Bar Bonifacio Global City, Taguig
[2019-Sep-26] If you did not check Googlemaps or Zomato to help you locate the place and will just rely on finding a signage for the restaurant, it will not be an easy task. I am still puzzled why in this day and age when finding a place (specially if located in urban area) is basically…
