Spiral @ Sofitel

Most expensive hotel buffet is at Spiral. So ever since, curious na ko talaga, ano meron dito. Luckily, my manager has an Accor card. A membership card which entitles discounts to Spiral. Perfect. The best part, it's his TREAT! Why would he treat us, hobby lang nya.

The first time he treated us here, wala akong camera. Anliit-liit na nga lang ng camera ko, di ko pa dala. Lesson learned. Last week he treated us again! Woohoo, sakto, dala ko si Vincent (my point and shoot camera).


Im not fond of eating and ofcors im not a good buffet eater too. Yogurt at Waffles lang naman gusto ko. Super daming food selection. For me, walang namang standout, except sa mango yogurt. Staffs are very very attentive though. And the ambience is the BEST!

Breakfast Rate:
Weekdays P1250

Weekends P1410

welcome to Spiral

the famous stairway

lovely setup

Enough of the place, let's stroll and see the food selection.

glazed ham

deep fried bread with stucked ham and cheese

crispy bacon bits

sausage

100 kinds of bread!

doughnuts and croissants

blueberry muffins

cereal, chocolate chips, mallows, and candies

fresh fruit juice station

fresh fruits

And many more. I cant take the photos of everything.
Here's what I ate anyway:

sushi

mango yogurt (best served with walnuts)

ramen

shitake mushroom dish

Walang icecream and cakes sa breakfast. Sad part.
TRIVIA: Did you know na sinita ako ng isang usher while taking photos.
Usher: Ma'am, bawal po magkuha ng pictures ng food.
Me: Ha? Kelan pa?!
So deama lang... Did he just know na mas na-enjoy ko magkuha ng shots kesa kumain?

Pag busog ka na, take a walk outside. Tanaw lang ang office namin from Sofitel. From the window of our office naman, tatayo lang ako, kaharap ko na din ang Sofitel. 10mins drive away from our building.

Breath taking view outside.


pool area

and now we know why it's so expensive at Sofitel

Next time lunch and dinner naman. Sana FREE ulit!

Hi, Chyng.

As usual, fiesta sa mata ang pagtingin sa mga photos mo. Ang ganda ng mga kuha. Kakatakam.

I've read your past entries, na sad ako sandali. Pero ganon talaga ang buhay, everything happens for a reason. Glad to know that you're moving on. Masarap pa rin talaga ang pagmamahal ng mga parents.

Keep writing and capturing beautiful things, places and moments. Your works and YOU are really inspiring.

Believe it or not, I haven't tried Spiral yet. I'm not sure kasi if I can handle buffets. I used to love buffets but I get frustrated coz I get full fast so I don't get to taste everything. Hehe.

But I will sure try Spiral one of these days. :-)

bang said...

Hi chyng! Can i use some of your photos of Sprial for my blog?

I am creating a post kasi about Spiral. Don't worry I'll mention you ;-)

Thanks in advance! :-)
