THIS month of April, Manila Hotel's chefs head south for Marco Polo Davao. The Davao hotel's Cantonese restaurant, Lotus Court, hosts two Manila Hotel chefs for the better part of the summer.
"From April 6 to May 15, 2011, Chef Wenceslao Gacutan and Executive Chinese Sous Chef Josephine (Joie) Yu Tanganco Candelaria will be concocting Mabuhay Palace original creations from the freshest ingredients in Davao," Marco Polo Davao Food and Beverage manager Bernard Bulaong said.
Chef Joie is a trilingual chef who regards excellence as her touchstone. She doffs her toque to her Executive Chef Konrad Walter, a Swiss national whose extensive experience spans his native land as well as Scotland, Bahrain, Macau, and the Philippines.
Executive Chef Konrad inspired her to think outside of the box and create what have become signature dishes of Mabuhay Palace, Manila Hotel's highly acclaimed Cantonese restaurant.
"Chef Joie's take on Long Life Prawns, vegetarian Peking duck, and salted egg ice cream took Manila by storm last month," Bulaong said.
These innovative dishes, unique to Mabuhay Palace, will be served in Lotus Court beginning 6 April. On offer as well are timeless classics, such as seafood and chicken, pork and beef dishes, with flavors both sensuous and appealing. Other Cantonese delights shall be the domain of Chef Wenceslao Gacutan whose talents in this area are nothing short of legendary.
Sample the extraordinary specialties of Chef Joie and Chef Wenceslao, which you can opt for in special a la carte menus or in sumptuous buffets at Lotus Court. Sunday lunch buffet shall be at P850.00 net per person. Payday dinner buffet with Mabuhay Palace menu highlights will be at P600 net per person on 15 and 30 April and on 15 May.
"This summer, stop by Marco Polo Davao's Lotus Court, to experience Mabuhay Palace's celebrated Cantonese cuisine and know why Chef Joie is the toast of the town," Bulaong concluded.
