Pinoy Life At Large

The last leg of our wonderful food tour brings us to Galileo Enoteca and Deli. In Italian, Enotica means wine cellar and that is exactly what this place is all about. Various wines from France and Italy line the walls of this charming little wine and deli place. Galileo Enoteca has two branches, one in Mandaluyong City and the other along Pasong Tamo, Makati, which is where these pictures are taken.

Another lucky food tour winner gets a lomo camera! At each leg of the tour, Tonypet hosts a mini-raffle to give away a lomo camera. This makes each encounter truly exciting as we all hold our breath for the next winner.

Prior to serving the wine, deli and cheeses, Galileo’s knowledgeable sommeliers gave us some pointers on how to better appreciate the wines, such as what food to pair which wine with, etc. I must say, they really know their wines!

Everyone listened intently, even taking pictures. Then we all looked around the place before taking our first sip of red and white wines along with delicious provolone cheese (which I really loved) and cold cuts (which I loved even more)!

So what did they serve us? Lo and behold.

That’s tomato and basil.

Prosciutto ham, my second favorite on a bed of Mortadella, my top favorite!

This is mushroom. Sorry couldn’t remember the name of this mushroom. Really, really good though.

What’s not to love?

Thank you very much to Tonypet, Jenny of Proximity and Peter of Wrigley Philippines for this wonderful food tour experience, one that I will remember each time I pop an Orbit gum after a full meal.
