[music And Wine Radio]

[I]t's been a while since I have published one of my own mixes, so what better time to do so than on my birthday?  Truth is, it's been a very busy year and many of the big things that have kept me from the turntables are now finally bearing fruit.   After seven years of being together and pretty much doing everything in tandem, I am now officially engaged to my partner and co-host Ines Cabarrus.  Many of you our listeners may know that we opened a Mexican restaurant called Chihuahua together last year.  We're very proud and happy to announce that this week, we launched the resto's second branch in Manila's swankiest mall Greenbelt.  And we are thrilled to once again organize the Oscars of Manila's restaurant industry for the third time, the bi-annual MBKRS Awards, scheduled for November. We also can't get over the reception you have given our radio program over the last year, and its recent vertiginous growth around the globe in cities such as Paris, London, New York, Frankfurt, Toron
