I have visited a lot of bars in Manila since I used to party a lot back in the day! You name it! I have been to all the top bars and clubs in Manila. Some close down and some are alive and kicking. I had a lot of great memories from different types of bars and clubs. But I am always eager to try some new bars and bars which still manages to outdo itself each year!

This time, I’ll be checking out Buddha-Bar Manila. I have been to Buddha-Bar Dubai way back in the day so I’m curious about how this works out! Buddha-Bar is the brain-child of visionary restaurateur Raymond Visan, Buddha-Bar Manila carries with it the sophistication and world-class service that the Buddha-Bar international franchise is known for.

The place, first of all, looks so cozy during the weekdays! The place is surrounded by comfy chairs and couches! The Tables are just elegant and covered the entire place. You can’t miss the giant Buddha. It blew me away and I thought I was in another country for a minute.

I was able to experience the Christmas Lighting outside and it was epic! It looked like an Asian lighthouse for a minute. I definitely enjoyed it! You can check out the lighting for the entire month of December.

The place is huge! I even managed to check out the VIP room. It made me wonder which celebrities actually partied here. I guess the best part is not only the VIP room but the roof deck! You actually get a great view of Makati!

I had a great time here and next time I’ll be able to blog about the food here and I can’t wait! Thank you to Buddha-Bar Manila for showing me around! I hope to be back soon!
