Cucina in Marco Polo Ortigas Manila Offers New Filipino Boodle Fight

Cucina in Marco Polo Ortigas Manila has been one of my favorite buffet restaurants ever since the hotel opened its doors in 2014. Throughout the last ten years, the Forbes Five Star hotel has featured many different themes and events at its signature restaurants. Last year, they launched their City Zen semi buffet setup for those who want a more relaxed dining alternative during weekdays (Read: Marco Polo Ortigas Manila Launches City Zen at Cucina). This time, they are now offering new Filipino Boodle Fight sets for barkadas and groups who want to have this Pinoy dining experience inside a premiere luxury hotel.

Cucina is Marco Polo Manila’s all-day dining restaurant located on the 24th floor that is well-known for its superb international and local cuisines. Marco Polo Ortigas was one of the first hotels in the Philippines to earn the coveted Five Star rating from Forbes Travel Guide, the global authority on luxury travel since 1958. Considered as the Olympics in the hotel industry, this prestigious award giving body recognizes the most luxurious hotels, restaurants, and spas worldwide. Since getting the award in 2017, it has continued to receive this recognition for seven straight years.

Starting August 4, 2024, Cucina now offers its new Filipino Boodle Fight that can be shared by groups of two to eight persons. This is available daily at Cucina during its non-buffet hours so diners can still get a hearty smorgasbord of Filipino favorites in the afternoon.

The Filipino Boodle Fight is available in two delicious sets. The Malasa Set starts with a platter that comes with Inihaw na Pusit, Steamed Vegetable with Homemade Shrimp Paste, and Sinugba na Manok.

Together with these grilled favorites are the Inihaw na Pork Liempo and the Pina-Rilya na Pampano. These Filipino surf and turf dishes will surely make the entire table happy.

That's not all, because the Malasa set also comes with a big bowl of Oxtail Kare-Kare and Sinigang na Suahe. The Kare Kare was really creamy and goes well with the bagoong. Of course, Filipinos cannot eat without rice so the set also comes with a platter of Pandan rice.

Another option is the Malinamnam Set which has more seafood than the Malasa set. Start with the very crunchy and sinful Pork Bagnet Chicharon for appetizers, then continue with the Ensalanda, Inihaw na Tahong, and Sinugba na Kitang Fish.

There's also the Halabos na Suahe that you can pair with some Lumpiang Shanghai dipped in sweet chili sauce. Condiments are all provided to complete the festive feast.

The highlight of the Malinamnam set is actually the Bulalo Pata ng Baka with its juicy chunks of tender beef mixed with corn and vegetables in a warm clear broth. Pour some soup on your Pandan rice for a truly Filipino dining experience.

We would like to thank Melissa Ferrer and Francis David of Marco Polo Ortigas Manila for hosting our Filipino Boodle Feast at Cucina. This is a good option for diners who prefer not to get their full buffet but still want to have a full selection of Filipino dishes to share with friends and family. You can enjoy these sets at P3,500 for two to four persons and at P5,500 for groups of four to eight. See you at Cucina!

Suddenly, nagcrave kog kinilaw and sinugba haaaaays gimingaw kos pagkaon sa pinas. Naa man diri pero lahi man jud ang luto sa pinas huehue

[whereiovershare]

My father only loves us when he can get something out of us. =

He smiles with excitement when he comes home surprised to see me sweating to cook his sinugba

Pure bliss on his face when I visit home after years. He would cook food for me in days.

And when he gets a big money, oh boy would he personally prepare us a feast.

But when I become a usual sight

When I don't agree to take on his unfulfilled dream,

When our existence cannot fill the internal void,

With no hesitation or remorse,

we are irrelevant.

Grilled Fish

Preheat your grill on high to help in caramelizing the fish and provide the defined grill marks that supply the immense flavor. It

will also lessen the amount of time your fish is on the grill and prevent the number one fear for fish grillers.. sticking!

Allow your fish to sit for 5-10 minutes to bring it up to room temperature before generously oiling and seasoning it prior to putting it on your cooking grates.

Be sure to stick with the general rule of thumb that allows for 8-10 minutes of grill time per inch of fish. Therefore, if your fish is an inch in thickness, grill each side for about three to four minutes. Always make sure you allow adequate time for your fish to rest after it is off the grill. 3-5 minutes is a sufficient amount of time to let the fish relax and allow for the juices to run back into your cut of fish, making it more tender.
