FIND MORE REASONS TO LOVE KOREA AT MARRIOTT HOTEL MANILA THIS JULY

-

It is going to be an “oppa-tizing” July as Marriott Hotel Manila presents Korean Food Festival this month. While many would hop on a plane for that ultimate K-pop experience, the hotel serves it hot and authentic through a flavorful immersion. No visa needed, just an appetite!

In partnershi­p with the Korean Cultural Center, they flew in a team of four chefs from one of the largest and famous resorts in Seoul, Elysian Gangchon. Both K-pop fans and foodies can’t miss out on the biggest culinary fete at their Marriott Café buffet for this year.

There are so much to love with Korean cuisine and it would be very hard to choose. So, Marriott Café spreads out a bounty of popular classics and rare Korean dishes. Aside from the best sidekick, kimchi, indulge on appetite-filling entrees like bibimbap, bulgogi, samgyeopsa­l, and Korean barbecue. Spot healthy finds such as namul (seasoned vegetable dish), sundubu jjigae (soft tofu stew), kimchi stew, and mandu (dumplings). This special buffet experience is only P1,900 for lunch on Mondays to Saturdays and P2,100 for dinner on Sundays to Thursdays, and until July 31.

After a filling buffet experience, swing by the Greatroom to unwind. Popular Korean liquor, Soju, takes over the bar that will get you into the K-Pop groove. Soju cocktails starts at P295 only.

Whether a fan or just culture curious, learn how to enjoy Korean food at home in a cooking class facilitate­d by their Korean guest chefs. There are two dates to choose from, July 18 (Tuesday) or July 19 ( Wednesday), from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at Marriott’s The Hub. Discover swift Korean meals-to-go and even elaborate ones to impress on your next party. Inclusive of a sumptuous lunch, chefs gear, equipment and ingredient­s for only P1,250. Quickly pick your schedule because classroom seats are limited.
