Wine Talk by David Stephan @ La Bodega, Telawi Bangsar

It was 7pm when I made my way to Bangsar in a breeze from Kelana Jaya. It was a Wednesday evening, usually the traffic will be jammed in the heart of KL/PJ, however due to the last day of Ramadhan, most Malaysians would have already be with their families or halfway across the world for a holiday.

I was lucky enough to get a parking spot within walking distance towards my destination. So I walked my way to the upstairs of La Bodega, where the wine appreciation workshop will be held!

Wine Talk with Room Service is a new concept created by two reputed companies based in Kuala Lumpur, Room Service Deliveries & Gastrodome Management Services, responsible for the famed La Bodega, The Press Room and Espressamente illy.

Combining their expertise in both fields, the aim is to offer more than just a wine delivery service. Order your fave wine from a complete list of more than 400 labels, choose one of a carefully selected mixed cases or join a 'Wine Journey' for an exclusive experience. Membership is free; it's the first of its kind in Malaysia.
