My niece Raquel got hitched to her fiance Karl last Saturday, and the wedding reception was held at the elegant ballroom of the Crowne Plaza on Ortigas Avenue. I never knew that the ballroom was that big! The food was simply amazing--
 |
| Tuna Tartar in Avocado with Lemon Aioli with Fresh Soya Beans and Celery Strings |
 |
| Creamy Mushroom Soup with Duck Dumplings and Shitake Mushrooms |
 |
| Braised Sea Bass served with Fricassee of Leek and Mashed Potatoes in Creamy Truffle Sauce |
 |
Roasted Beef Tenderloin, Gratin of Green Beans, Mushrooms and Braised Carrots
with Thyme and Garlic Beef Gravy
|
 |
| Tarragon Creme Brulee served with Hazelnut Brittle Wafer |
While the hotel opened as the Galleria Suites, the Bass group of the UK was brought in some ten years ago to manage the place. The entrance to the hotel is very simple, unassuming even. The size of the hotel, however, gets clear once you get inside; the long escalator rides going up make it all evident. Interiors are elegant, tastefully done. A perfect choice for a memorable affair.
