I usually have some Bugnay wine in Bacolod when there….and bring a few bottles back with us….A real very pleasant drink….The name escapes me but there are a couple tourist/pasalobo shops who flog it in Bacolod - I'm thinkings Merci's….Anyway, across from the Planta Hotel, and also in the SM mall. If it is in Dumaguete, worth a try and the money stays in the Philippines rather than the imported wine. If you haven't had it before you are in for a nice surprise….
I do not think I will be going up there for a while but could use a couple of bottles of Sta. Isabela semi sweet sherry that the wife loves and I like it as well . It runs about 530 p a bottle and it sells in Lopues Mandalagan branch..thats on the left side going north above Robinsons Mall. The branch has a lot of import products as well. *IF* your so inclined to do a a guy a favor Id love 3 bottles.. Id pre pay if you like.. Also a semi sweet wine that is decent is LaMarka...heheh 135 peso and can be found in the Robinsons Triangle foodstore enjoy Ed
Sorry dint mean to *steal the thread* to getting me wine and not the get together..should have PMed that.. *MY BAD* So.. is there a list of possible locations or did you plan out a rotation or anything for DI forum gatherings? one more question Approximately how many did attended.. in and out over the course of the time? I only ask as I think about what woud be my costs of opening my big mouth and saying I will bring a craft beer of mine for every attendee..How much would it cost me.. note I said *A* beer..not falling down stupid *LOL* Ed
DI get togethers will generally be held at places of business of our sponsors. In the case of the recent one at La Fiesta, we had about 40 people all in, most brought their wives/GFs, but some others came alone. Larry
Hmm maybe a bad idea.. thinking any owner would be pizzed at me if I caused him to loose that much in sales..not a good idea..
