#PenMoments: An Old-Fashioned with a View at The Gallery Club of The Peninsula Manila

 A soothing tipple in that elegant Peninsula style. That's #PenMoments...

The shifting afternoon light drapes the magnificent lobby with its golden glow under the iconic Sunburst sculpture of National Artist Napoleon Abueva. The mood is set for a relaxing libation at The Gallery Club of The Peninsula Manila. An Old-Fashioned? Coming right up...

A beautiful "art gallery in the sky" with its impressive collection by National Artist for Visual Arts Ang Kiukok, the Gallery Club is a secret spot and a stunning feast for the senses with its spectacular view of the lobby below. Clearly and without a doubt, it's another layer in your personal collection of #PenMoments.

The Gallery Club transports you to another time and place with its timeless old world elegance highlighted by over twenty art pieces by Ang Kiukok from The Peninsula Manila's own art collection. Once seated, be immersed in art surrounding The Gallery Club best enjoyed with a refreshing handcrafted libation. After a sumptuous and elegant lunch at Old Manila, an Old-Fashioned is in order (more on the contemporary market cuisine by Chef de Cuisine Dominico Nicolino, see my previous post #PenMoments: Classic Cuisine, Elegantly Refined and Revisited at The Peninsula Manila's Enduring Old Manila).

High above The Lobby, The Gallery Club literally is a step up from your your usual afternoon tipple. At the bar, your cocktail is prepared... 

...and served. It's moments like this, #PenMoments, that transforms the usual afternoon tipple into something special and even magical. Name your cocktail and The Gallery Club will whip it up for you in no time. When the moment and the mood is right, there's just nothing quite like an Old-Fashioned to make an already good day so much better.
