The Ultimate 18 Treasures Feast at Jasmine, New World Hotel in Makati

Kung Hei Fat Choi Foodies! I believe that there couldn’t be any other wonderful way to spend this day and the rest of the Lunar New Year celebration than having a magnanimous feast which signifies bountiful blessings for the New Year. Thank heavens New World Hotel’s Jasmine Restaurant has something in store for us.

From January 18 to 30, Jasmine has special lunch and dinner menus which symbolize prosperity and luck in line with celebration of the Chinese New Year.   One of them is the Ultimate 18 Treasures Feast prepared by Chef Choi Wing Ki which my fellow bloggers and I feasted on last week.

Binondo Food Wok with Ivan Man Dy

Nothing beats being introduced to the place full of rich cultural heritage and history while eating your way through them.  That is what I have experienced at the start of this year when I joined fellow foodies at The Binondo Food Wok with Ivan Man Dy of The Old Manila Walks.

When we were told that our tour isn’t going to be the popular tried and tested Big Binondo Food Wok but rather a tour of Ivan’s personal favorite just in time for the Lunar New Year, I knew that I needed to extend my holiday vacation. On January 23, we will be celebrating Chinese New Year that is why I deemed joining the tour couldn’t be more apt.
