Saturday Nightout, Club Plazo, Hotel del Rio, Iloilo City, 2003

Right after college I got addicted to partying. I didn't go to raging parties, though. Iloilo City had a boring nightlife then. There were only about five party places around the metro.Who could ever forget the popular Barracks Bar and Restaurant beside SM City Iloilo? Calzada, of course. There's Club Metro inside River Queen Hotel along Bonifacio Drive. For the yuppies ( young, urban, and professional ), they chose between Club Bwana in Sarabia or Club Plazo in Hotel del Rio.By the way, I forgot to mention Vega Bar famed for their weekly tequila body shots. These clubs were spread out all over downtown Iloilo so barhopping was sort of difficult, unless you have wheels, of course.

Of these, Club Plazo was my favorite. Dancing the night away at Iloilo's most intimate yet energetic night club  was a fun idea, at least for me.Regular patrons of Club Plazo ranged from chic to not-so-relaxing to be with. The club set the formula for nightclub success in Iloilo - top-notch customer service, good music, sumptuous food, and plenty of going-clientele nearby. These were Club Plazo's winning elements!
