Make it Alabang

"Living a life of integrity is one of the greatest missions we can undertake." – Greg Anderson
It’s no longer a secret! Alabang has become the center of action these days, now that more and more establishments are coming up with services that cater to A-listers.
One such establishment is The Bellevue Hotel, the first and only full-service business hotel in the area. The hotel recently launched Alabang’s Finest, a by-invitation-only premier lifestyle club for privileged residents and top executives in the south of Metro Manila who have made The Bellevue Hotel their social and business destination of choice.
"Alabang’s Finest is a tribute from the people of Alabang to the people of Alabang. We should no longer be known as ‘Alabangers’ or ‘Southerners,’ but as Alabang’s Finest. Now, you no longer have to go to Makati to enjoy distinct privileges because they all offered here at The Bellevue," Cyndy Tan-Jarabata, The Bellevue Hotel’s hardworking general manager, said.
It was nothing short of a perfect night for all who graced the launch. The hotel’s lobby was adorned with white roses, and soon, the crowd became the sight to behold. The night’s highlight was a private viewing of Rustan’s prestige brands such as Cartier, Tiffany and Mont Blanc. Premium items were raffled off to lucky attendees.
The impressive guest list included Rep. Juan Miguel Zubiri; HSBC CEO Warner Manning and wife Julie; Prestige Brand marketing director Marilen Tantoco Valbuena; associate director for marketing Peachy Badilla; Sisley’s Bo Ramas-Ros; Mont Blanc brand manager Erik Roque; Lifestyle Asia’s Sari Yap and Joyce Ramirez; What’s On & Expat’s Butch Bonsol; CCA president Arthur Lopez; actress Pinky de Leon, jetsetter Boots del Rosario; Paco Magsaysay; Marjorie Lopingco; and Debbie Chan. The Bellevue staff was dressed to the nines as well – from the alluring Cyndy Tan-Jarabata, svelte sales director Myra Miranda, F&B manager Ivan Maminta to the good-looking tandem of brothers Ryan and Patrick Chan.
A sumptuous buffet of cold canapés such as smoked salmon with fresh cream and capers on toasted foccacia, roast duck pizza and seared tuna marinated in wasabi soy with shredded ginger, satay, tempura, fresh fruits and mouthwatering cakes are downed with crisp whites and superb reds. Definitely a taste of more thrilling events to come!
Happy birthday to our celebrators today, Peachy Bernasconi, Juni Orosa, Noel Regala and Rudy Bautista.
