As a mom, it's always fun to share experiences and ideas with other moms. Usual topics vary from our top school picks to the latest fashion find. Gather a group of fun moms together and you're in for a great time. That is what happened last June 15 during the general assembly of the Mommy Mundo SoMoms.
The Mommy Mundo SoMoms is a collective of moms who are active on social media and have unique voices and points of view that are relevant to moms. We come from different backgrounds and share different advocacies. Yet one thing that we all believe in is becoming better versions of ourselves. During the general assembly, the new campaign for #BetterMe was launched. Whether our goal is to be healthier or more financially savvy, we all want to level-up and be excellent role models to other women and, more importantly, to our children.
The event was held at the Winebar 1771 which is on the 2nd floor of Chateau 1771 in El Pueblo. Chateau has been an old favorite of mine. I love their cozy restaurants and the beautifully plated meals that they always served. I've never been to the Winebar prior to the event. I've always thought Winebar only served drinks so i never bothered to check them out.
To get to the Winebar, you will need to pass through Chateau 1771 at the first floor.
Once you get to the 2nd floor, the ambiance instantly changes into something equally unique and tasteful. The 2nd floor holds two separate function rooms which seats about 25 people each. Each room has glass sliding doors which opens up into one big hall. The middle of these two rooms can also be converted into an extra dining space to accomodate more guests.
I was surprised to know that Winebar 1771 has its own food selection. The buffet that was served during our event was oh-so-good! I took some pictures but believe me, the photos don't justify how good they are truly are.

During our formal meeting, each of us was asked to present our blog and our advocacy. On top of the individual presentations and endless chikahan, we also had a mini exclusive bazaar from the mompreneurs in the group.
