Barcino

Barcino is one of our favorite after-work hang-outs. A bad day at work? Not much can beat great wine and tapas in a relaxed atmosphere with good friends. You can get take-out too, both wine and food! AND the wine you buy and drink in the bar is the same price as if you bought it for take-out. I love it! There have been some glitches here and there and it would be nice if the staff knew that gazpacho is served cold, red wine is not... Maybe an idea to put some more resources into staff training? (this is not Barcino specific but a general need for Philippines' restaurants and shops... service with a smile, yes, but the poor staff also need proper training so they know what they're doing and talking about...!). Anyone else with good restaurant or bar recommendations? Any tips in any country are welcome, please share!

Barcino is located on Julia Vargas Ave., Ortigas, near the golf course.
There is also a Fort Bonifacio branch, located on Rizal Drive.
