FEAST ON authentic Filipino food served with unexpected twists and new interpreta­tions by homegrown kitchen superstars chefs Sau del Rosario and Miko Aspiras at the Diamond Hotel Philippine­s. The Filipino food festival is ongoing until July 1 at the Corniche restaurant for P2,780 net per person. Mr. Del Rosario’s contributi­ons to the buffet include Oyster Ceviche made from Aklan oysters with coconut cream, drizzled with calamansi and sprinkled with homemade chicharon (pork rind) for added crunch; Maya Maya Mayonesa, a delicate classic favorite made from snapper with aioli, capers, black olives, eggs and spices; and Paku with

Kesong Puti and Watermelon, a healthy mix of forest ferns served with palm vinegar and salted egg. A must-try is the Crispy Pork Kare-Kare Macadamia, Mr. Del Rosario’s signature dish, cooked with macadamia nuts and truffle oil, and Sisig Paella among many more. Mr. Aspiras brings to the table desserts like Mansanas, cinnamon mousse and Granny Smith apple compote dipped in red glaze decorated with chocolate leaf and twigs; Cherry created from layers of chocolate sponge, cherry mousse and cherry chantilly cream; and Mandarin Cheesecake in Graham crust base garnished with fresh orange segments. At the live station, one can find the hotel’s

ensaymada served with flambéed Morada and Rosella. Guests with a minimum spend of P5,000 at the Corniche lunch or dinner buffet will get a raffle ticket for a chance to win a two-night stay in Baguio.
