WATCH: Exclusive First Look! Let's celebrate "11 Años" of @barpintxosalabang @barpintxos . What started as a humble neighborhood "catch all" wine & dine, for friends and familiar faces to unwind and chill, away from the city noise has evolved into one of the south Metro's sought after destination for delicious Spanish cuisine still rooted in its "pintxo" concept of complex little bites.
.
Alabang exclusive menu is worth the drive - Croquetas de Carrillera, Langostinos a la Parrilla, Apahap a la Vasca, Sepia a la Plancha con Alioli, Codillo con Garbanzos, Chuletas de Cordero, Fideua de Costillas, Paella de Pato.
