Blackwood Bistro at The Venice Piazza (photo from Trix Deseo)

I decided to go some place new.. I kept on hearing about shows at the Venice Piazza and really hated the name of the place. It felt a little too pretentious, given that the we were far from Venice and the canals I imagine in Manila rhyme with urinal, imburnal, foul, etc. =) 

Nonetheless, I was intrigued. I trooped over there, and was surprised at how quaint the Venice Piazza seemed. I looked around and picked out the restaurant with the coolest interiors. 

There were people seated on a long table outside of the restaurant drinking wine, laughing, and looking pretty well-dressed. The whole place felt like one cozy dinner party. Once we sat down, the Chef came up to us and chatted. We weren't there for dinner, just for some cocktails, so he pointed out his recommended appetizers. It went great with the white wine he prescribed. 

The Buffalo Crab Claws laid 12 de-shelled crab pincers which were basted in buffalo wing sauce priced at Php 395. It kept with the cozy dinner party theme and kind of felt like comfort food. I was a happy camper =)

The whole Venice Piazza looks better at night :)
