A glittering leisure spot in the south
MANILA, Philippines - After a tough week at work, nothing beats a chance to sit back, relax and enjoy good food while chilling out to the music of a live band. While many entertainment hubs in the metropolis provide such pleasures, Blue Wave Strip Mall on Macapagal Ave. in Pasay stands out by offering a variety of entertainment and events.
The Courtyard
The Courtyard at Blue Wave Macapagal is fast becoming the most sought-after hangout for yuppies this side of town. As soon as the sun sets, the place begins teeming with life and energy. Here, night owls discover an oasis — a place to unwind, momentarily forget the stresses of corporate life and just have fun.
“The Courtyard houses a number of bars and restaurants that offer affordable food choices, from oriental to western. On top of that, our guests enjoy quality services from the welcoming and beautiful people of Blue Wave,” explains Blue Wave Macapagal’s general manager Bing Amio.
More than the value-for-money dining options, what really draws the crowd to The Courtyard are the live bands and performers featured there every night.
“We feature famous recording stars as well as upcoming groups and acts,” enthuses Amio.
Gastronomic Utopia
There is no shortage of things to eat and drink at Blue Wave. The whole place is a veritable gastronomic utopia with its endless array of food choices. From local to continental, sumptuous to simple, cocktails or mocktails, high-end to affordable, there will always be a mouthwatering offering to suit every budget and whim day and night.
“Blue Wave is the ideal hangout from coffee to cocktails,” Amio says. “Be it a concert or a venue to hold birthday parties, family get-togethers, team building, barkada gimmicks, romantic dates, and even business meetings.”
Patrons of Blue Wave can welcome a brand new day with a hot cup of brew at Starbucks or a warmed sandwich at Petron Treats.
Come lunchtime, Blue Wave offers every imaginable cuisine. For Japanese, there’s Kimono Ken and Rai Rai Ken. Shakey’s, Plato Platina and Pizza Hut offer pizza and pasta. Those pining for good old Pinoy fare can satiate their cravings at Gerry’s Grill or Max’s Restaurant. There’s also Jollibee and KFC for those who prefer fast food. Of course, every great meal must be capped by a heavenly dessert. Pick from the luscious pastries available at Cheesecake or share a cold, fruity concoction from Ice Monster.
Safe And Convenient
Security and convenience are addressed with ample parking and security. “It would take guests less than five minutes to find a parking space,” says Amio. “Our security personnel are friendly and approachable.”
The quality of guests is also worth noting. Patrons consist mostly of families, students and office workers from nearby companies. “The crowd is a mix of businesspeople, young professionals, students and families.”
