Friendly Reminder: Hi everyone! Just a quick and friendly reminder that our Kaamatan event is by reservation only, and unfortunately, we won’t be able to accept walk-ins.
This is a private event, and it’s important for us to know in advance who will be attending so we can manage the space, seating, and atmosphere properly, and to make sure it’s a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.
We also kindly ask that all payments be made before the event. This is because we are personally covering the costs upfront, and your contributions help us plan better and cover essential things like meals (from pre-lunch to dinner/supper) and drinks, which are all included in the price.
You're welcome to take a look at our updated menu, which we’ll continue to adjust if there are any changes or additions closer to the event.
Thank you so much for your understanding and support. We really look forward to celebrating this special day with all of you!
