ATONG ANG Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 my ratings for buffet packages in manila (out of 10): paseo uno - 8.5 (great with privilege card, hard to get a seat w/o reservations)heritage - 8.5tempura misono - 8 (authentic as it can get)shangrila makati- 9 (varied food festivals)shangrila edsa - 9 (best seafood in town)manila pen nielsen's- 9 (best salad quality in town)saisaki/dads/ kamayan -6 (a friend was paid gift certificates in full for 100k++, take it or leave it, no wonder nobody wants to supply to triple v, thus their quality suffers; their reputation among food industry suppliers is very poor, just ask around; i've heard chef's salaries are also delayed but still have to verify. i tried dad's carvings and they were very dry and seemed to be leftover from lunch. only savior is their lechon de leche)alba's - 7chinatown seafood - 6 (ever wonder why few filipino-chinese are going there to have their buffet meals?)fishing village - 7.5 (better choice for chinese food but no beverages included)el comedor - 7new world - 7 (lacks variety and food quality)emperor court - 8 ( ok but still lacking)tin hau - 9 (the best chinese buffet not in quantity but in quality)tong yang - 6 ( their quality has since suffered since the original owner sold out his shares and individual branch franchisee purchasing system was implemented)a vietnamese rest in timog - 6emperor villa (ocean dragon) - 5 (forget it!)cabalen - 5 (people who scrimp on food deserve to be poisoned)mla hotel - 6.5 (quality has really suffered due to cost cutting after mla bulletin takeover)mla diamond - 7 (mediocre for a hotel)phil plaza longest buffet - 8 (very fresh seafood)century park- 8 (lunch and dinner is ok but breakfast is not)galleria cafe raphael - 7 pls. note that hotels are generally given higher ratings. it is partly also because of the quality of service and the effort that went into the preparation of food (mise en place). these ratings just reflect my own opinion backed up by my years of culinary exploits and thousands of pesos spent for food lover's and aspiring chefs, i recommend books like professional cooking by wayne gisslen and professional chef by culinary institute of america. i recommend studying abroad since local culinary schools are not up to international standards probably except for cca, csb , ihrs and cacs. i just hope there would be an end to those few who attend a few cooking seminars or demos abroad for maybe a certificate and claim they studied abroad and come back to open a restaurant bragging about their 'newfound knowledge'. our maid could probably cook more delicious food. if i may say, EAT, DRINK, AND BE MERRY, FOR TOMORROW YOU DIE! LIVE, LOVE AND MAKE LOVE! Quote Link to comment
ATONG ANG Posted June 24, 2004 Share Posted June 24, 2004 oo nga naman faffy paki post exact location..... saka yung cosa nostra san yon and what kind of resto bayun....... cosa nostra serves italian-spanish themed pizza and pasta. food takes forever to be served (around 30-45 minutes) so i suggest u bring a book or a friend. the reason for this is that everything is done after taking an order. no part of the food is pre-cooked. price is quite expensive and dish portions are small but delicious. its located beside i-bank on the right side of adriatico going towards victoria court Quote Link to comment

Fahfrd Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 and Mongolian Grill... for 150 pesos - eat all you can and a good tapioca dessert! thats value... Hmm, yeah Mongolian Grill is good value for money. But you have to know how to balance the ingredients in your bowl para dehin ka maumay. Quote Link to comment
