My Epic Month with Izumi Sake Bar

Can I just start this blogpost with a shoutout to Miko Carreon, who introduced me to Izumi Sake Bar and who is, in turn, the reason behind some of the best nights that I had last month? Thank you, Miko! He just joined Top Blogs, by the way, so please show him some love! :D KEEP CALM AND CARREON!

Anyway, as I just said: I was introduced to Izumi Sake Bar last month, which is located in Burgos Circle, The Fort, along the street right past Coffee Bean.

I had just come from a girly spa sesh at Pink Me Up that day, and I really wasn't up for partying, but the minute I set foot into Izumi, I realized that I had nothing to worry about. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was cozy and intimate - just the way I like it!, and the drinks were strong - also the way I like it! No joke: I had two vodka-cranberries and this is what happened to me:


(That's me air-kissing Miko!)

Fun times! I also met some amazing new people, including MJ who was incredibly nice and accommodating, and Bea, who is just too cute for words.

Since I loved my first visit so much, it really should come as no surprise that I invited Lana for some drinks there the following week to catch up and talk business:


Lana confirmed that the drinks were indeed strong (I'm not just a lightweight! lol) and we ended the night in Resorts World.

Now, my most epic night there so far, though, would be the Friday when Miko hosted the party. I invited a few friends, he invited a few friends, new friends were made, two bottles were devoured and other events transpired that I would really rather not re-hash right now, but trust me when I say: we all had a great time. :p

Thanks for coming, Jacky! :) Even though you were really, really, super kaduper late. :p

The night really began when we opened the second bottle. Clearly. :p

I just had to post this photo. Sorry. Inside joke?

I actually thought my crazy Izumi nights would end there because I was officially going back to single motherhood after that(my parents had the lil one for a while), but then MJ asked me and Miko to invite some of our blogger friends to a special bloggers' night at Izumi, where - instead of going nuts with the alcohol and having crazy fun - we went nuts on the food.

I'll be blogging about that very soon, but here are the awesome people that we invited and who didn't let us down:


Thanks for being there, guys! Special thanks to Jacky and Izumi Sake Bar for the photos in this blogpost, too. Can't wait to blog about the food next! :)

For now, though, like Izumi Sake Bar on Facebook and follow them on Twitter and join me in my Izumi craze! :D
