L’Apertivo Italiano: Experience Italy After Work (A Review)

The Italian Chamber of Commerce’s almost-midweek party was a resounding success.

As the hurly-burly of Makati continued on your should-be-typical Wednesday night, Legaspi Village’s Makati Diamond Residences hosted the most chic weekday social that stopped the world of one excited crowd for at least three hours.

Cocktail tables and cocktail tables were filled with a very fashionable group of men and women, sipping premium Italian wine and munching on cheese and breadsticks, croquetas, mini-Margherita pizzas and vegetable tortilla. The soft music, the lively chatter and the happy laughter echoing across the room set the perfect atmosphere for the event. The view from the serviced residence’s 27th floor was also stunning, the ideal backdrop as friends and acquaintances went and had casual catch-ups throughout the night.

L’Apertivo Italiano is everything that it promised to be and more: stylish, sophisticated…and Spritz-filled! A mix of Prosecco, Aperol and soda, the Spritz is sweet and bitter at the same time, and altogether refreshing. Claiming to be the drink in the Apertivos in Italy, the newest drink in town is here to grace all the other L’Apertivo events, which will be held on a monthly basis.
