Yin & Yang Chinese New Year set menu at Lung Hin, Marco Polo Ortigas

January 22, 2017 ·

The coming Chinese New Year 2017 will surely be a big event for the Filipino-Chinese community in Manila, as it is with the rest of Asia. It's amazing how this holiday will revolve around food, hence the relevance of the phrase Kung Hei FAT Choi, lol. Our favorite Lung Hin, the Chinese restaurant of Marco Polo Ortigas Manila will surely be crowded on the day as it has a long list of regulars. Executive Chinese Chef Raymond Yeung calls his Lunar New Year line up the Yin and Yang menu because it balances the good and bad, rich and healthy aspects of the food. He's ... Continue Reading...

New chef de cuisine at Marco Polo Ortigas Manila unveils signature dishes

October 18, 2016 ·

It is always a joy dining in Marco Polo Ortigas. Its distance from our place notwithstanding, I always look forward to civilized lunches here amid their high ceilings and sumptuous buffet that is one of the best values in Manila. We expect the quality to level up even further with the assumption of the young Giuseppe Rivoli as the hotel's new Chef De Cuisine. The 32-year old chef is a veteran of the Asian culinary scene. He was executive chef of the Trattoria Italia Restaurant group in Singapore and was also based for five years in Bali where he was at the ... Continue Reading...

Fruit-based menu in Marco Polo Ortigas Manila is a must-try!

July 27, 2016 ·

The invite to try Marco Polo Ortigas Manila's fruit-based menu sure got me curious. Veggies go well with savory food, but fruits?? It was simply worth taking a look. From now until August, the Marco Polo hotels in Manila, Cebu and Davao are offering diners a taste of the islands with the irresistible flavor of tropical fruits infused in delectable dishes. We started our lunch with this Pineapple-Mango salad with tamarind vinaigrette dressing. It was crowned with grilled prawns. Just how wonderful the colors are! But I also love that this salad is healthy and ... Continue Reading...

Lung Hin at Marco Polo Ortigas Manila

May 1, 2016 ·

A few jaded Manilans like me need to have a good reason to go all the way to the Ortigas Business District. And last week, my reason was to dine at the award-winning Cantonese restaurant of the Marco Polo hotel, Lung Hin. Located on the hotel's 44th floor, Lung Hin is all about sleek,tasteful interiors. And several window seats even afford one the enviable view of the Metro Manila skyline. Our friend, Marco Polo Ortigas Manila's Director of Marketing Communications Judith Los Baños ,invited us to an intimate lunch to celebrate two things: Lung Hin's ... Continue Reading...
