Bayview Park Hotel Manila once again supports and
joins the annual event that showcases food specialties from different regions
in the country. KULINARYA FESTIVAL is a joint project of Department of Tourism
(DOT) and Hotel Restaurant Association of the Philippines (HRAP) in cooperation
with famous hotels in the metro and Bayview Park Hotel is one of them. From Monday
to Friday until July 31st, Bayview Park Hotel will be serving a buffet lunch at
hotel's Lobby Coffee Shop located at Bayview ground floor, left side right
after the main entrance of the hotel.
A wide variety of dishes combined with unique blend
of authenticity and creativity is waiting for you and your family and friends.
An everyday taste of our country's finest cuisine from different regions, with
an added festivity ambiance with the Filipiniana motif decorative. Recently I
had a chance to taste and experience this because I am one of the invited
bloggers for Bayview Park Hotel's launch of "Kulinarya Kalyaan Food
Festival".
To start off a Lumpiang Toge (Deep Fried Bean Sprout
Roll) served as my appetizer and I like its authentic taste because they put a
shrimp on it to taste and I combined it with Pancit Canton Guisado (Stir-Fried
Canton Noodles w/ Mixed Sea Food and Vegetables) which is perfect for me
because it blends with the sourness of Lumpia due to its vinegar sauce and the
saltiness of Pancit Canton. I was thinking of eating a Pancit HabHab which is
eaten with vinegar yummm....
For my main course, I only took a small serving of
steamed rice because, I wanted to indulge my taste buds on the viand that was
prepared.Like for example the Relyenong Pusit (Stuffed Squid) which one of my
favorite that day because the squid is perfectly cooked, it is not rubbery to
bite and the sweetness of the squid's meat is still present.I also had Sinigang
na Maya-Maya combined with it to serve as my soup.
Of course the Kare-Kare( Beef w/ Thickened Peanut
Sauce), which I found amusing because it was my first time to I eat a Kare-Kare
without a peanut bits on it and it it not that sticky at all which I like also
because you can taste plainly the vegetable and meat. It is so delicious even
without the bagoong or fish paste which perfect combination of Kare-Kare.
Then the Ginataang Sitaw at Kalabasa (String Beans
and Squash in Coconut Milk) was also one of my fav because it cooked with
coconut milk and it blends and forms a sticky sauce for the dish and the
veggies are still crunchy.
And for the desert of course the all-time Filipino favourite,
its Halo-Halo, Sago't Gulaman and Kakanin, what a great finale for a delicious
and sumptuous buffet lunch. I will never say how many times I went to buffet
area and get some for me, but I'll tell you its so worth to start your
KULINARYA FESTIVAL journey at BAYVIEW PARK HOTEL MANILA. For only Php450.00net/person
you will discover illuminating insights on our country's widely diverse classic
recipes amidst the romantic and historical corners of the hotel itself.
