Being a venue for the multi-faceted and is a hodge-podge of culture, Cubao X is a place where everything artsy is welcomed. With restaurants that cater delicacies that are equally enticing as it sounds and stores that provide sartorial creations that people wouldn’t really find just anywhere else, a visit to such a complex place would be worth the drive.
Coming to that side of the metro is a totally different experience; it caters to everyone in the industry of the arts. For film buffs who are interested in independent films, there is such a place called “Mogwai” that shows films from the past to the present, from tacky vampire films from the 50’s that clearly has been left out with the advancement of technology to low-budget films of the present here and abroad that despite lacking financial back-up still has relevant stories to tell. For the fashion-savvy people, there is a boutique called “I love you store” where vintage finds are deconstructed for a fresher silhouette. It’s a place where creativity and fun is perfectly amalgamated and where the “new” set of “cool” kids who thrive with artistic independence rendezvous. If you ever want to be inspired and would love to preview an unmarked culture, a visit to Cubao X would certainly arouse your artistic point-of-view.
