CUCINA ANDARE NOW AT THE LINK / MERCATO MEETS MUSIC AND ARTS AT THE ROOFDECK

You don't have to miss the Mercato Centrale of Makati anymore as they're back and up at the roof deck of Glorietta the Link Car Park building. This new favorite food hub levelled up the experience by having music and arts to complete the lifestyle hub you've been looking for. Cucina Andare is part of the Mercato Centrale Group's growing number of food markets all over the metro.

We were welcomed with a great selection of photo worthy and tastebud friendly dishes! I was tempted to use the GCs given right away, even if I already had dinner prior to the launch. Why not? Aside from being affordable, they don't fail on taste too.

UNO Magazine's March cover girl Dawn Jimenez was present at the launch too for the press con and autograph signing.

Anjo Bolarda painted an eight foot tall, twelve foot wide live art to kick off an amazing launch. The view of the Makati skyline together with the live art is beautiful as it is.

During the launch, the Mercato Centrale Group also brought along some friends from Radio Republic, an online music channel/magazine that champions Original Philippine Music, who showcased groundbreaking musical talents. The entertainment line-up consisted of Inky de Dios, The Slinks, Steady Machine and Kjwan. 

Not to forget the creative group of Vinyl On Vinyl, who merges art, toys and music, featured in a modern gallery which highlights pop culture artists from contemporary art, underground and street art. 

I LOVE THIS!

It was a fun filled experience having been able to dine, listen to great music and be fascinated with the arts going around the roof deck. Not to mention the perfect ambience of the place!

Faudible asked RJ Ledesma, one of the owners of Cucina Andare, on why they included music and arts as part of their launch: "It's a natural outflow of the lifestyle of good food, good music, good arts, good times. Im a big fan of Radio Republic and contemporary arts and it's a nice escape, diba? Upstairs, ganda ng feel! I also show up on Radio Republic events and my brother's part of Steady Machine."

They're also planning to do music gigs regularly and suggests for new artist or album launches to be held at Cucina Andare.

Cucina Andare boasts great food, music & art in its new home atop the Link Glorietta structure. The food, music & art market is open every Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 4pm to 3am.

You can find the Glorietta the Link Car Park building beside Makati Shangri-la and in front of the Landmark Department Store.
