Dear Fellow Members,

Our first function for the year will be an Italian dinner at La Carinderia. This restaurant got its start in Siargao where it was getting rave reviews. Chef Stefano Tomasiello, a Turin native, opened their Manila branch just about a year ago and it has been serving some of the most authentic Italian food in the city. Some of their do not miss dishes include pasta Carbonara and Amatriciana, polpette, and vitello tonnato, all of which will be served at our function.

Although we will be providing two white wines and two red wines, our format for this dinner will not follow a strict pairing format and will allow diners to see which wines they might prefer for certain dishes.

When making your reservation, please indicate whether you would like the Carbonara or Amatriciana for your pasta.
