Lung Hin, Marco Polo Ortigas Manila: New & Classic Dishes, Exquisite Abalone, and Chinese Lunar New Year Celebration

Lung Hin, Marco Polo Ortigas Manila’s Cantonese restaurant gives us more reasons this year to indulge in a gastronomical journey that will transport us to Hong Kong through their new delectable offerings. Through the able hands of well-trained Chinese chefs spearheaded by Chinese Executive Chef, Lai Cheuk Kou, also fondly called as Chef Terry, diners can expect new addition to the flavorful authentic and traditional Cantonese dishes that Lung Hin is known for. 

Having been awarded as one of the most outstanding Chinese restaurants outside of China at the 16th China Hotel Industry Golden Horse Award Gala, Lung Hin continue to prove that it deserve all the good reviews it has been getting since its opening. 

I recently attended a Media preview of the new dishes at Lung Hin and it reminded me once again why in my opinion, I consider Lung Hin as one of the best Chinese restaurants here in Manila - and a personal favorite.

CDO Premium Holiday Ham

We are just hours away from Christmas 2017 and I am guessing most of us are already looking forward to spending it with our loved ones enjoying delicious Christmas food. Speaking of Christmas food, one of my favorites is CDO Holiday Ham Premium Boneless Hind Leg coupled with Danes Cheese Ball of course. 

I have been blogging about the goodness of Holiday Ham for three consecutive years now and I must say that to this day, it is still one of our family's holiday staple food. (2015, 2016)

Nothing beats welcoming Christmas day  spending it with your loved ones and family while enjoying your Noche Buena feast. And a Noche Buena feast wouldn't be complete without the traditional ham and queso de bola - in our case, a Noche Buena Feast wouldn't be complete without CDO Premium Holiday Ham and Danes Cheese Ball. 

It's a #HappyHoliDANES with Danes Cheese Ball

Remember last time when I blogged about Danes Cheese Ball? Remember when I shared with you the story of our family's tradition of preparing 12 or more dishes to represent prosperity for the next 12 months? Remember the recipe I made using Danes Cheese Ball as my contribution to this tradition one Christmas season?

Yes, it's the time of the year again. And just like previous #holiDANES of the past years, we are not without our favorite, Danes Cheese Ball. 

There are a lot of things that represent Christmas time - the most joyous season of the year. One of my favorites has always been cheese ball and one of the brands that is always present in our pantry is Danes Cheese Ball.
