Global Gastronomic Tour at the Cafe Ilang Ilang
Hello dearies! Year 2011 when Cafe Ilang Ilang was newly renovated, they had a promo we saw in Manila Bulletin. Me and the hubby availed the 50% off, reserved and went there. Yes, hotel food is known to be not exactly cheap but the price is very worth it. We marveled at the elegant setting and delighted at the vast array of cuisines from around the world. That night, the epicurean in us felt very satisfied. We knew we deserve this.
Last May 20, 2015, I am very lucky to be invited to Cafe Ilang Ilang for lunch. To once again experience the feast in Cafe Ilang Ilang inside the historic Manila Hotel, where visitors experience genuine Filipino hospitality by Manila's most courteous employees.
Please join me in revisiting the wonders of Cafe Ilang Ilang, one of the best restaurants in 2014 by the Philippine Tatler.
Cafe Ilang Ilang has a total of 14 stations, nine uniquely designed buffet stations, and live cooking stations for guests to be mesmerized as chefs prepare their meal. Even the most discriminating palate is sure to find his favorite! For intimate gatherings, the Cigar Room or the Wine and Cheese Room is available.
Cafe Ilang Ilang takes pride in Executive Chef Konrad Walter who hails from Switzerland and is a part of Manila Hotel since January 2000.
They also introduced new Executive Pastry Chef Jerome Benda from France. Be sure to try his signature specialties found only here in Cafe Ilang Ilang.
