Summer Palace in EDSA Shangri-La Hotel

-
Dad celebrated his birthday a few years ago at Summer Palace in EDSA Shangri-La Hotel. After choosing between Heat and Summer Palace, we ended up reserving a function room at the latter. The function room was across the main dining hall which is open to walk-in diners.

I chose the one of their set menus which is good for 10 persons per set (Read: We're 20+ family and friends) and had it prepared and served once we arrived. The menu consisted of 2 appetizers, 6 entrees and 2 desserts and cost us P12,000/per set (inc. of yang chow fried rice). We had to pay an additional for the drinks, service charge, VAT and extra tip.

I have heard a lot of good words about Summer Palace that is why we wanted to try it out. I was not able to keep myself from taking pictures because I liked the dainty ambiance and yummy food.

THE BATTLE OF THE CORNED TUNAS

This IS one very very late post. I completely forgot I have a file saved somewhere. Shucks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I have been meaning to make this post since the very first time I saw Derek Ramsey's Century Corned tuna TV commercial. I thought San Marino must be doing well in terms of market sales considering that they were first to introduce the 'corned tuna' concept in the Philippine market - and that Century had to keep up with it. San Marino Corned Tuna TVC Century Tuna TVC So finally last Sunday morning about two weeks ago, I opened two cans of corned tuna - one San Marino and one Century - and put them to a taste test. There's 7 of us having breakfast then. Without telling them which is which, I asked them which tastes better. (L) Century and (R) San Marino My nephew was first to say that he likes the taste of the less oily and sauteed-tasting one. (the one on the left, which is Century Tuna ) I totally
