F1 Hotel’s Chef Sau
Introduces new dishes
No more than a decade, the Fort was considered as a military base, a wide piece of land stretched just across the popular business district of Makati. Fast track to 2013-and it’s now an urban community where various modern residential buildings and giant firms are established. Towering buildings started sprouting street after street, making Bonifacio Global City a highly urbanized district in Metro Manila. Living up its vision statement “To be the home of happy experiences”, F1 Hotel Manila is now a “staycation” haven composed of guest rooms, residential spaces, function rooms, wellness and fitness centers, executive lounge, and the all-popular, F All Day Dining Restaurant.
Urban Food, Kapampangan Chef
F1 Hotel calls it a total gastronomic experience. It wouldn’t be surprising that the dishes are more than up to par because the executive chef hails from one of Philippines’ culinary centersPampanga. After several years of travelling all over Europe and dis- covering the secrets and art of cooking, Chef Sau del Rosario found his way again to share his delectable recipes to his fellow Filipinos. This year to date, he is F1 Hotel Manila’s icon of great food creations. “I love parallel parking because like cooking and opening restaurants, it presents a challenge to me.” - Chef Sau del Rosario, F1 Hotel Manila Executive Chef
For Chef Sau, it is a tasty and experimental journey around the world through every specialty dish he prepares. F1 Hotel Manila also supports organic and healthy living that’s why the dishes are made from the freshest ingredients. These are some of its ala carte dishes with a twist :
Kare-Kareng Bagnet - Pork belly has never been this good. Cooked with thick ground peanut sauce and a variety of veggies, this unique Kare-Kare will surely be a hit. This signature recipe comes from Chef Sau’s mom, a native of Pampanga.
Lamb Caldereta - The usuallycooked-with-goat-or-beef-meat dish is being redefined by using lamb meat instead of the conventional main ingredient. Considered as one of the Filipinos’ favorites, the Lamb Caldereta will let anyone have a taste of a special dish made even more special.
Chicken Inasal - A recipe brought from Chef Sau’s Ilo-Ilo friends, this version of Chicken Inasal will definitely give anyone’s tastebuds a different, tasty kick.
