Casa Buenas marries food and wine in exclusive pairing event
AT Newport World Resorts, the whole exceeds the sum of its parts. The same can be said for the time-tested partnership of good food and great wine.
Filipino-Spanish restaurant Casa Buenas and renowned purveyors Philippine Wine Merchants cordially invite gourmands and connoisseurs to its first “Wine Pairing Affair” on April 18.
At the integrated resort’s signature restaurant, innovative culinary creations from its award-winning chefs and premium spirits from Chile and Hungary match up for a night to remember.
The “Wine Pairing Affair’’ will feature eight different stations, each with its own curated food-and-wine pairing. Guests get the liberty to explore any and all options to their hearts’ and palates’ content while walking around the stunning interiors of the restaurant.
Philippine Wine Merchants will be bringing the grapes from far corners of the world — seven unique varieties of Montes Alpha and a special vintage Disznóko.
Casa Buenas will be preparing the other half — eight delectable hors d’oeuvres made especially for its pair. Together, it promises a delightful balance of flavors.
In particular, the richness of Duck Breast with Chickpeas, Cauliflower, and Jus harmonizes with the robust character of the Montes Alpha Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine’s round tannins and rich acidity cut through the fullness of the dark meat while its ripe fruit flavors and dark chocolate notes amplify the savory elements of the dish. Without a doubt, it is a match made in culinary heaven as more remarkable food-and-wine pairings await.
On April 18, take part in a memorable and intimate “Wine Pairing Affair” at Casa Buenas, Newport Grand Wing. Indulge in an evening celebrating the joyous unions of gastronomic worlds. Doors open at 6 p.m. For reservations, contact (02) 7808 8988 or 0917 878 8312 or email casa.buenas@newportworldresorts.com.
