Getting Loud and Lucky in Timog QC

Bar Hop Day  3 w/ Jay

Being a long time party-place area, Timog in Quezon City has long been known for its ultimate clubbing experience. All types of bar and clubs, from light to intense, line the streets of Timog and adjacent Tomas Morato.

You will never run out of place to go to in Timog, even without a plan. On the contrary, I have already identified my target bars for last Saturday night - Dolce Superclub, White Avenue Bar and Eivissa Superclub.

Same with the past two night, I am accompanied by a different friend - Jay. i was supposed to go with another friend but he backed out at the last minute. It was good that Jay lived nearby and was game even if I invited him just a few hours before.

Dolce 

Dolce Superclub

Bar number 1 was Dolce. It is conveniently located within the circumference of the Scout Monument circle in Timog. When we got into the bar, we were immediately informed that there was an ongoing open party by an organization of students from University of the Philippines Diliman.

Something tells me that tonight's gonna be a good night (hmmm, sounds familiar). :)

UP Cursor Party

Local Comedian Franzen

To my surprise it was the anniversary party of UP Cursor or the UP Association of Computer Science Majors - the same organization I was part of about ten years ago back in my UP days as a student. It was like being zoomed back 10 years. lol

What a coincidence! It was good that there were also some alumni like Jonas, Paolo and Lee from the lower batches with whom I was able to catch up with.

I also met local reality show Pinoy Big Brother celebrity Franzen inside the club.

Dolce Rev&Rave Cocktail

We ordered Red Fuel (P100++) , Gyoza (Dumplings 5pcs-P125), Tuna Sisig (P270), Beef Teppan (Sizzling Beef P300), and an orange juice (P70).

I can say that Dolce's food and drink prizes are relatively cheaper than the other clubs we've been to. They also do not charge service fee.

Gyoza Barchow

With regards to the Singapore Grand Prix Rev&Rave promo, Dolce only had the Red Fuel cocktail included in the promo and no barchow so we only got one chance in the instant prize and one raffle stub.

Getting the Instant Prize

The good night strike again when we won a Grand Prix Shirt in Rev&Rave's  pick-a-prize promo. After getting stuck with the "thank you" stubs in the two previous night, the curse was broken.

The shirt really looks cool.  I will wear it to Singapore in case I win a trip and tickets to the Grand Prix.

We were on our way out of the bar when it started to rain. So we decided to stay some more and let the rain pass before heading on to White Avenue.

White Avenue Bar

White Avenue

If there was something unique with White Avenue, it's their UV light entry stamp. It's invisible under regular light but can be checked by the bouncer in charge under UV light.

In the same manner we ordered the F1 cocktail and Squid Balls Barchow which are part of the Rev&Rave promo.

Here is a video on how the F1 cocktail was  prepared:

We didn't win in the pick-a-prize but we had two additional raffle stubs.

White Avenue Clubbing

White Avenue is a lot smaller and the interiors were cramped. After a short while, we decided to move on to Evissa.

Evissa

Long Lines outside Eivissa

The final superclub in our bar hopping came with more surprises. It's late in the night and the line outside the bar was very long! This led me to ask Jay what could be inside the bar that would make these people line up long for a club?

When we got in, the club is further divided into at least three different bars/rooms/sections. Our entrance tickets only allowed us to one, but it was sufficient for us to experience a different level of Manila clubbing.

 Eivissa Superclub is bigger than Dolce, and much more than White Space; and the crowd was awesome. Club music was also raised a notch higher and the cocktails - extreme.

Rev&Rave Firecracker (P100++)

I had to leave the Firecracker (P100++) cocktail to Jay which he himself had to surrender to. It's also part of the Singapore Grand Prix promo together with the Rev & Rave barchows Chili Fingers (P260) and Fish & Fries (P320) which we also ordered.

Eivissa Superclub

Eivissa Club

Same as with the other clubs, we get to pick an instant prize again. With three promo items, we got to pick three times.

Prizes w/ Chili Fingers and Fish & Fries

I had Jay pick two while I pick one. The good night struck again as we won in all three stubs! We got 2 Grand Prix caps and a Singapore Grand Prix luggage tag.

It was a total complement to the shirt I got earlier in Dolce.

Here is a video of clubbing in Eivissa Superclub:


The night fell deeper but the music just keeps getting better as the crowd gets wilder. By 3am, I had to go ahead of Jay as I still need to attend a family affair later in the morning.
