\"\"Concepto in Poblacion Makati<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Tucked away in an area far from the usual noise and current image of Poblacion, Concepto is your new hangout place, sporting a casual vibration for all to spend a long time chilling inside. Here, you will surely savor a steak, indulge in wide options of drinks, and jam in slick beats from different bands.<\/p>\n

\"\"Concepto affords an upscaled dining experience<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Opened only this August,\u00a0Concepto\u00a0was thoroughly conceptualized as both restaurant that offers straightforward Asian food and a meat shop, where you can select and order mostly imported prime cuts such as USDA Rib Eye, Porterhouse, Sirloin, Tenderloin and Tbone.<\/p>\n

You can even have it cooked the way you prefer! The cooking charge is Php 100<\/strong>, with choices of sauces and sides.<\/p>\n

\"\"The meat fridge is placed on the first floor, where you can freely choose the cuts you prefer<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Fill yourself up with great eats from their sumptuous menu before heading to a non-stop party. For a starter, take the Mikey\u2019s Chili (Php 250)<\/strong>, which\u00a0is an 8-hour simmered ground beef topped with sour cream, cheese, and cilantro. The fried tortilla is incredibly crispy, which becomes more tangy when munched with the beef.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the\u00a0Roast Beef Adobo (Php 300)<\/strong>\u00a0is relatively perfect in its own sweet flavor. The steak is well-cooked and easily chewed, making it perfect for a hearty dinner. Just make sure\u00a0to pair it with rice!<\/p>\n

If you are still craving for some sweet and salty flavor, try the Poppin\u2019 Chicken Poppers (Php 200),<\/strong> which is a serving of breaded chicken poppers dressed in Asian barbecue sauce and barbecue powder. Make it more satisfying by dipping it in the aioli dip.<\/p>\n

These meaty menu items are meant to be enjoyed with cold drinks and savored with the music, courtesy of hot bands who have performed at Concepto, such as Thyro and Yumi, Kiko Salazar, Miro Valera (of Stonefree), Kat Agarrado (of Sinosikat?), Hans Dimayuga, Jem Cubil, Ramonne, Inky de Dios, and more.<\/p>\n

\"\"There are seats on the upper level where the bands perform\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

They also have open mic nights where you can sing your hearts out every Thursday. To add a hearty party flair, they mix it up with DJs too, with regulars JJ Saur, Marxx Monterola, Supmerman, Daxx, DJ Zelle Abella, and San Francisco DJ Steelo.<\/p>\n

More than that, they also hold quiz nights every Tuesday, with the winner getting a free bottle!<\/p>\n

\"\"Concepto is also a perfect place to meet other people and socialize<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Concepto is owned by business partners, Migz Del Gallego, Mikey Presa, Anna Villanueva, Con Mendoza, and Thina Mendoza, who are likewise bar- and party-goers. In fact, according to Presa, one of the reasons Concepto opened is because the bar that they\u00a0used to visit has been closed down. So, they decided to establish\u00a0a place with the same vibe as their favorite bar.<\/p>\n

\"\"Graffiti on Concepto’s wall<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Once an abandoned lot, Concepto’s minimalist logo, which is a shape of C above an open triangle, means “Concepto in a house.” Thus, it exudes a homey and laid-back ambiance coming from its modish interiors with fancy light fixtures.<\/p>\n

Being situated in an unfrequented location, free from bustling foot and car traffic, this place can be considered as a hidden bar where you can party all night long, and make the noise you want without bothering the neighborhood.<\/p>\n
