Grand Opening, Grand Closing


So I just got an email today from the ever fabulous Ingrid telling us all that she will be moving her bar to new digs. Mabuhay has been the eye of the Tokushima nightlife typhoon of which I've been a part of for the past two years and change. Many a night have been enjoyed and forgotten in that tiny hole. The old place was small, cramped and most times had drinks spilt everywhere, but it was cozy, the ambiance always inviting. I find it somewhat bizarre eulogizing a bar but in a way that place encapsulates the Tokushima experience. Like Tokushima, Mabuhay is small and out of the way but you usually find fun everytime, and you do it clutching a beer while screaming, "Total Eclipse of The Heart."

The new place opens Oct. 21st.
