Battle of the Buffets Part 3, The Peninsula Manila

And you thought I had forgotten? Nah, just needed some time before I could look and eat at another buffet place. If you are not a regular reader, let me update you real quick. A few months ago, I have decided to check out 5 hotels that offer buffet and compare them to one another and pick out the best in my opinion. The first two that I tried was Circles of Makati Shangri-la and Paseo Uno of Mandarin Oriental. For my third contender, it was at my second home, The Peninsula Manila.

It was a Friday so it was Seafood Buffet at the Lobby. Oysters, Lobsters, Mussels, Crabs and all of Nemo's friends were deliciously spread out. Roastbeef at the carving station and a tempura corner did some heavy damage on the so called diet that I was in. SEE-FOOD diet is more like it as I eat all the FOOD that I SEE!

The buffet gang was Steffie, Evan and I. It was a fully booked lobby but because we consider ourselves as VIPs in Pen, Steffie and I were able to get a table even without a much needed reservation. Soon as we step outside Pen, we are back to being nobodies. (Did I spell that right?)

Anyway, it was good. Actually, it was more than good. A bit heavy on the pocket but if you are a seafood lover, this is the buffet for you. I would recommend it to my family but if the Dizon's were to eat here, I am sure Peninsula would declare bankruptcy the very next day. The men in my clan would need to have the food replenished 3 times before they feel a little full.

Here are the photos and I say, it is worth the 3 inches on the waist.
