May 12, 2012
Theme BYOB at AK Bistro
Venue AK Bistro
Location Ground Floor - West Tower, Number One Rockwell, Makati
Date May 12, 2012

IWFS Philippines will enjoy a dinner at AK Bistro on May 12.  The new Bistro will still be in its dry-run stage when we have our BYOB there but it should be ready to serve great gourmet-style comfort food.  If you like the food in Angels' Kitchen, then you will also enjoy the new dishes at the Bistro - Pochero, Menudo Pot Pie, Chili Garlic Tinapa with Artichoke Pasta, Chicken Casserole, and Espresso Panna Cotta.

May 17, 2012
Theme Blind Tasting "Wine Discovery'
Venue Chef Jessie at Rockwell Club
Location Amorsolo West Wing Residential Drive, Rockwell Center Makati City
Date May 17, 2012
Time 7:00PM

Our function for May is a first, thanks to our new member, Richard Joye.

Answering a call by the last Board for fresh ideas and involvement by members other than the usual, Richard proposed a dinner format where two wines for each of the two main courses be served blind and a simple multiple-choice quiz game to help the participants better identify the four wines.  Attendees are to be seated six to a table with a member leading the group to a collective answer.  It is hoped that the guessing game will prompt members and guests to discuss the characteristics of each wine and learn from each other in the process.

Answers will be discussed by Richard and our Wine Master, Bernie Sim, and inputs from any member will be welcomed.  A brief on the wines for the dinner will be distributed. 

Two of the wines will be sourced from our cellar - top quality reds that will perfectly match the dish it will be paired with.

The dishes for pairing were carefully discussed with ex-Le Souffle chef, Ms Jessie Sincioco, renowned for her French-Mediterranean cooking, which she prepared at a pre-function tasting last Wednesday, 11 April, in her restaurant at the Rockwell Club attended by Richard and five board members.
