T HE first month of 2017 is wrapping up but the Year of the Fire Rooster is just about to begin. And what a better way to usher in the Chinese New Year than attracting prosperity and continuing tradition in the midst of luxury?

Marco Polo Ortigas is pulling all stops to do just that beginning January 27, where a New Year’s Eve celebratio­n is set at the hotel’s Grand Ballroom. Located on the 7th floor, the ballroom will be a set to live entertainm­ent, calligraph­y, and selling and display of Feng Shui cures and enhancers, for guests to enjoy.

Making the celebratio­n special is the appearance of internatio­nal Feng Shui expert Marites Allen.

Moreover, guests can continue the long-standing tradition of celebratin­g Chinese New Year with a dragon dance performanc­e believed to bring good luck to everyone. To keep the prosperity going, Cantonese temptation­s – which combines traditiona­l and modern culinary techniques by executive Chinese chef Raymond Yeung with his Yin and Yang set menus for lunch – will be served at Lung Hin.

Finally, welcome the good luck that the new year brings with symbolic glutinous rice cakesakes ( tikoy), presented in round cakes with yam and brown sugar flavors and special Koi-shaped co-conut flavor or indulge in a - delightful and delectable Golden Pineapple Pastry that comes in a box of eight in Lung Hin until January 31.
