Table for 30, please! We threw an intimate bash for the sweetest friend, Katrina Ponce-Enrile, organized by Robert Castañeda. Joined by her friend group, we hosted Katrina’s birthday celebration at the very chic Spanish restaurant, Cerveseria, in BGC.

Great catching up with everyone over spirits and a feast that was muy deliciosa! We enjoyed some paella, tapas, pasta and lechon. Not to mention a side of good tunes and grooves we enjoyed until 12 a.m. But most of all, I loved seeing the birthday gal glowing and vibrant with joy! We love ya, Katrina. See you again soon!

Our friends are one of the best reasons to party, even more so when it’s their birthday.

For instance, when Evelyn Salazar Fraser recently celebrated hers, oh, was it grand! We had a room at The Peak Speakeasy in Grand Hyatt Manila filled with her nearest and dearest friends. I even met her best friends from Vietnam. Those ladies were just fabulous and cool.

Everyone looked pristine and wonderful in the white dress code. Meanwhile, the birthday girl looked radiant and a standout in hot pink. From there, it was all free flowing. Music kept playing, we kept dancing and the fine wines kept coming — all more than fine for us!

Such a good time care of the gorgeous birthday gal. Happiest birthday to you, Evelyn! Thanks for having me over. Cheers!
