Project Bar Tour Philippines - -- A Bartender's intoxicating weekly journey through the metro.



I would like to apologize for not being able to update my blog for months since I am swamped. Philippine Flair Open 2013 will be on in 5 days time and well final touches are underway.
As a bartender, one of my past times is really going to different bars to have a drink, order food, and enjoy the ambiance. 
But not only that, I am also particular with the service the bar staff renders whether am sitting at the bar or at the dining area. This project is not meant to find faults but to rather make people aware and understand the importance of service in the business and how it will make or break one. The service I get in each and every bar is like my personal mirror.
I would sometimes ask myself, ”Am I doing this as well?” "I don’t think I will do this” ”I think I can do this too” and so on. If it is worth sharing to people then I will not hesitate since the establishment or the person deserves to be commended.
As a trainer, one of the things I would preach is always to follow the GOLDEN RULE. 
It is easier said than done yes but at the same time it also takes commitment and consistency. We have good days, we have bad days, but in our profession we don’t have to let our guests know about the later.
This is just an opinion coming from an ordinary guest that wants to be treated well not like a king but just enough that he will remember his stay there and will have the urge to comeback not only because of the drinks, the food the ambiance but the service.
To achieve this goal I will go to different bars once a week and try to document my “bar hop” as religiously and consistently as I can. This in itself is not as easy as it sounds but I am up for the challenge.
Drink moderately and don’t drink and drive.
So stay tuned.
