Upon arrival at the hotel, welcome drinks and cold towels were given to us.

We got to try some of their best-sellers such as the Beef Kebab, Shrimp and Garlic Pasta, Brick Oven Chicken, Butcher’s Choice Pizza, Kinilaw na Tuna, Mango Pomelo Salad, Crispy Pata, Chopsuey and Binakol na Manok. My favorites are the super yummy Butcher’s Choice Pizza, Beef Kebab, and Binakol na Manok.
