Dinner at the Shang

To celebrate a milestone, the Mr. and I decided to head to a dinner buffet at Tides Restaurant, Shangri-La Mactan. 

 
I was quite fortunate to have availed of their Buy 1 Take 1 promo a few months ago so we decided to use the ticket this July! All in all, we were very satisfied with the buffet not to mention the very friendly and pleasant staff of the hotel. Good food plus commendable hotel service plus spectacular dinner venue = one very happy couple.

The outcome (we left our camera at home so we only used our camera phones so please bear with the low-quality resolution),

started off with some greens and a whole lotta' Japanese

next round, some meat! lamb chops, roasted pork & chicken and blue marlin

more meat for the mister! sayang ang ulam pag walang rice ;)

beef stew

grilled fresh salmon: To. Die. For. (literally melts in your mouth)

can't get enough of the salmon, and a taste of the blue marlin

this would have to be my new-found-friend. a kind of hors d'oeuvre that has cherry tomato, white cheese and olive drizzled with pesto sauce

some just desserts

what's a dessert without icecream?

a variety of cheesecakes which is the fave of the mister

had some coffee al fresco to wash it all down. this is the view of the pool.

and a short walk to let everything settle in. LOL
