The Malate social
scene |
|
Socialista: neither snobbis, nor Marxist |
|
by Angelo Cantera, Reporter
THE name itself is out of place.
And as its outdoor speakers blare a nightly riot of techno music
amidst the multitude of live bands and beerhouse banter, one can
easily tell that in Malate, the Socialista Bar stands as a
completely separate entity. Unique with its LED-lit dance floor, its
international cuisine, and its shamelessly elaborate interior, it
began reeling in a different crowd since its establishment back in
2008. And now, after successfully weathering its first year, the bar
continues its mission of redefining the nightlife capital of Manila.
“Despite the recession,
business is actually pretty good,” its owner, Jong Garcia told The
Manila Times. “I’m happy that Socialista is gaining more
popularity.”
