On Day 4 in Manila, Sofitel Philippine Plaza in Manila invited us to go to their Spiral Sunday brunch / lunch buffet. Since I had already heard about it from others, many of whom said it was the best and grandest buffet in the Philippines, and maybe in Asia, I was pretty excited to have the chance to try it out.
We arrived right as the sunday lunch buffet started, right at 12 noon, and we first met the manager who showed us around the buffet, and explained the philosophy of the buffet. At Spiral Buffet in Manila they have 21 different food ateliers, which is French means artisan workstations - so at the buffet they mean different types of cuisine and stalls. So there are basically 21 different types of cuisine to choose from, French, Indian, Filipino, Thai, and a full cheese room, and fresh cold Japanese section as well. As soon as we sat down, we were poured a glass of champagne to begin with. There are two different prices for the sunday brunch buffet - you can either go with unlimited alcoholic beverages (champagne and wine) or you can go without alcohol. If you’re interested in drinking, the former option is a great option.
I had no clue where to start eating, so I just went with the food that was the closest to our table - the cold Japanese atelier - including a full tuna sitting and waiting to be sliced by the piece. After my plate of sushi and sashimi and caviar, I then had a plate of Filipino food including crocodile adobo and the infamous balut - a fertilized boiled egg - all of which were pretty good. I then had a plate of Indian food, French food, and some Japanese hot food too.
What I really liked about Spiral Buffet at Sofitel Manila is that even though it was so incredibly grand and so extensive, the food was cooked in small batches, so it wouldn’t sit too long before being finished off. This way, the food remained fresh, and hot, and though it was a buffet, the quality was truly top notch. I haven’t been to too many hotel buffets in my life, but this was easily one of the best buffets I’ve ever seen or eaten at.

this is absolutely an amazing buffet but it is not something within reach for the majority of people who live in the phillippines or even 1/10th of the population. imagine this buffet as a 3 star michelin restaurant in your country that costs on average $300-500 USD per head (Price point) - relatively speaking - and to fill up, you're looking at spending maybe over 2-3k average per head but of course one does not really fill up, but more so to experience when eating at a michelin star restaurant. most phillippinoes make less than $200 USD a month and this buffet alone will cost a huge fraction of that pay check. but aside from the depressing rant, i love you as always mark!!!!

Me gustan tus videos pero lo que no me gusta es que pones la misma cara cada vez q pruebas las comidas...ya sea pilipino, mejicano, tailandés. Alguna comida que te desagrada? O para ti son todos iguales? Tendrías que describir los sabores y oleres. Y no si es suave, dulce o salado o crujiente

those oysters are not from france. there is a region here in ph that specializes in producing oysters and scallops. and you can buy 1 kg of scallops for only $2. furthermore. you buy it without the shell... so the total weight is the actually weight of the meat without the shell.

You did crack the balut on the right part the first time. You just need to peel off the thin membrane to sip the soup up. You can then choose to put salt and/or vinegar before sipping the soup. =)

The right way to eat egg baluts is cracking the bigger end with the coffee spoon , open up a small hole , add little salt in and suck up the juice , Then take out pieces of egg shell to 1/2 length way and scoop out whatever remain. Very nice with herbs and a bit of salt in every spoon . Neat and nice way
