Rehab Gastrobar

Nadia Wiranti Seviani

Had a random invite from a friend to try out Rehab. We dropped by the place at around 10 in the evening on a Tuesday. Rehab was a bit hard to find because it wasn't located along commercial areas.We went to the second floor of Rehab where The Ward Room was located. The Ward Room is still under Rehab but with a different menu. When I checked the menu, I was surprised that everything on the list is affordable. Also the cheapest I have encountered for a bar/club.With cocktail tables, couches, a bar, and the DJ's booth. The room is dimmed as expected but I the space is quite small. The distance of the tables are too close to each other and the party lights were only placed and focused at one corner/side of the room. I noticed this because one of my friends started to look like a guy dropped from a UFO when the lights started to just focus on him--and man, he was glowing!When it comes to the sound system, the speakers were only placed at the DJ's booth, making the sound in the room uneven and non-surround. The music was not as clear as it should be (sabog), but the worst part was how the DJ played it: expected beat drops turn into an intro of another song and the tunes just keep changing. For a raver, my friends and I lost our mood to dance and felt disappointed on how the tracks were played.

I do not drink that much so I bypassed a lot on the menu in terms of hard drinks/liquor. However the food menu had 100 percent of my attention. I had myself the baked cheesy mussels. It was great food. One of the best and freshest.

Had a random invite from a friend to try out the new Gastrobar in Mandaluyong: Rehab. We dropped by the place at around 10 in the evening on a Tuesday. Rehab was a bit hard to find because it wasn't located along commercial areas. Rehab is a two-story gastrobar with VIP rooms and a special area at the second floor called the Ward Room. The Ward Room is still under Rehab but with a different menu.

Since it was a day of abandon and total ignoring of my health, I had chicharon bulaklak and it was heavenly. It was very crunchy and sinfully delicious. I did not hold back and ordered two of the stuff.

Dynamite! That’s not a description of a food but it is the actual name of the food that I had. The spiciness of it made me drink a lot of beer that night. Definitely a killer combination. I think I will do that again real soon.
