Tapas, sangrias and everything Spanish!
1:29 PMResorts World Manila takes guests on a Spanish foodfest for the whole month of June via Gastronomia de Espaรฑa
The Philippine-Spanish Friendship day started in July 1898. It was then when a group of Spanish soldiers garrisoned themselves inside a church in Baler, Aurora, defending the Spanish flag and not knowing Spain has already lost the war. Impressed by their courage, General Emilio Aguinaldo decreed on June 30 to treat the Spanish soldiers “not as prisoners, but as friends.”
Fast forward to June 2013 in Resorts World Manila, let’s commemorate one
of the best days in our history by celebrating 300 years of our culinary exchanges
with Spain. To our foodie friends out there, we are halfway through “Gastronomia
de Espaรฑa.”

Meanwhile, Coffee bar and lounge Cafรฉ Maxims comes out with a Spanish fusion sampler with their Spanish High Tea Stand. This multi-tiered treat features three different levels of flavor ranging from savory to sweet. The first layer is an appetizing pair of Gambas Al-Ajillo and Crujiente Pecante y Patatas. A sumptuous tapas set comes next which includes samples of Sardines Con Pecante y Tomate, Tomate Con Quezo Anchovies, Quezo Bocconani Con Hamon, and Tuna Brochette. A dessert set of Tocino Del Cielo, Palmeras, Churros, Silvanas and Grilled Fruits cap off the list. Cafรฉ Maxims will also hold weekend cooking demos to delight fans and bring them closer to Spanish cuisine.
Cantonese fine dining restaurant, Passion, for their part, will serve a
unique fusion of eastern and western flavor with Chef David Chu Wai Fung’s Mini
Taro Salmon with Spicy Tomato Sauce. To complement the sumptuous dish, Passion
offers a swig of Tropical Sangria, a refreshingly sweet mix of tropical fruit
flavors to wash it all down.
Mediterranean-themed restaurant The Terrace channels its Spanish roots
with a diverse offering of Tapas, Spanish Wine, and Spanish Entrรฉes at their
lunch and dinner buffet sets. June weekends at The Terrace will also be extra
special as it features a Barbeque Buffet set every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday
of the month.

RWM’s all-Filipino buffet restaurant Mercado, on the other hand, offers
a comforting treat with their “Fil-Hispanic Cuisine Festival.” From June 1 to
29, Mercado’s buffet will feature different Fil-Hispanic and Mediterranean
dishes that represent the centuries of rich cultural union between two
countries. Dishes such as Potaje De Judias Blancas, Chipirones a la Plancha,
Penne a la Gambas, and Calamares En Su Tinta will add some Spanish spice to
Mercado’s line-up.
In Prosperity Court, rice lovers can choose between the Callos a la
Madrileรฑa and the Lengua con Cetas, while those craving for pizza can sample
either the Coca Con Chorizo y Melacoton or the Coca Con Huevos y Gambas.
RWM’s entertainment hub Bar 360 and its piano lounge Bar 180 offers
something different for those in for a round of drinks. Their limited offer of
Red or White Sangria Tower comes with a free choice of special tapas which
includes Chorizo Frito, Gambas al-ajillo, Tabla de Queso, Tabla Jamon Serrano,
Champinon Al Ajillo and Calamares Ala Romana.
Now that’s a wide array of Spanish flavors to savor
this month. See you here in Resorts World Manila and as what they say in native
Spain, “Buen Provecho!”
