#TweetUp@thePark December 18, 2009

This tweetup was organized by the Ms. Leah Besa's group at Prox, whose office is in the Insular Life Building in Ayala. I used to work there early 2000s as an Assistant Manager for Business Development under Ms. Leah Castaneda (Chill Pare author, and sister of my good friend Paolo). Celine Esguerra, a long-time family friend, posted an article on Posterous.

#beerstorming at Le Bistro Vert

Happy hour with friends is always welcome way to end the five-day work week. A semi-spontaneous tweetup had been planned last Friday (28 May 2010) with this agenda: to drink and discuss some ideas from previous tweetups. Who came despite the rain? First to arrive was (current 4sq mayor of Le Bistro Vert) Ria Juan / @juanxi who came from work errands. Next was Marissa Manaloto / @mcmanaloto who braved the Valero rain to get to Le Bistro Vert. Le Bistro was the venue for the recent #T13tweetup. The menu consists of dishes produced from sustainable food (the Asian Development Bank has an article on Sustainable Food Security in Asia which is recommended reading). I ordered and shared the Roasted Vegetable Pizza (yummy with the cherry tomatoes & fresh arugula) and Super Dry. Ria and Marissa had Mango Mojitos while waiting for Rob.

Rob Angeles / @robangeles arrived last and was excited in discussing ways to help local social media. I am very hopeful with this project.
