Thursday evenings until April 25 are barbecue nights to look forward to at City of Dreams Manila’s Wave poolside restaurant where popular Filipino street food and iconic contemporary fare take center stage from sundown until 9 pm.
Live soothing performances on alternating Thursdays from acoustic pairs Philip Arabit and Cindy Honra, and Michelle Ayalde and Josh Braganza transform the contemporary poolside restaurant and bar into a chic and cool spot. Their enlivening music enhances the al fresco tropical vibe of Wave, which is surrounded by a lush landscape and located next to Nobu Hotel’s infinity lap pool.
The buffet features an impressive spread highlighted by the crispy sisig live station and on the grills, inihaw on sticks: Filipino-style pork barbecue skewers, chicken wings inasal, pork ears and mask, chicken liver and gizzard, chicken feet, dried pusit, balut chili garlic, chicken and pork longanisa and inhaw na mais. Filipino street fare tusok-tusok consisting of skewered and deep-fried treats are also featured: kwek-kwek, fish balls, chicharong bulaklak, kalamares, lumpiang shanghai, tokwa, crispy crablets and dynamite lumpia, served with a selection of sawsawan, bringing the popular street food experience to a deluxe setting.
The appetizer is a unique rendition of the must-try kinilaw, the Philippines ceviche, with choice of raw tuna, tanigue, or oysters dipped in vinegar, chilies, coconut milk, red onion, ginger, coriander, and cucumber. Pares and mami and gotong Batangas are the comforting choices for soups, while other well-loved Filipino street food desserts and snacks such as halo-halo, banana cue, kamote cue, ginataang bilo-bilo and mini version of turon de rhuma along with seasonal fresh fruits, cap the experience.
For P1,999 net per person, the Filipino barbecue buffet comes with unlimited beverages consisting of sodas, chilled juices and iced tea and San Miguel Light Draft beer.
