The Pen Celebrates 45th Anniversary With Takeout Menu At Unbelievable Prices
After all, what's a birthday without good food?
Exactly 45 years ago, in 1976, The Peninsula Manila opened its doors in one of Manila’s most prestigious addresses along Ayala and Makati Avenues, just in time to coincide with the World Bank – International Monetary Fund Convention. To commemorate this milestone, General Manager Masahisa Oba asked the hotel’s Executive Chef Xavier Castello and his team to cook up an extensive menu of classic favorites as well as creating new flavors with only one stipulation – prices must reflect the spirit of the anniversary. The result is a spectacular set of 45th anniversary menus priced at P45, P197.60, P450, and P1,976.60, available from The Lobby, Spices, and The Peninsula Boutique from now until September 30.
Let’s take a look at the anniversary offers in more detail.
The Lobby
While dining under The Lobby’s iconic “Sunburst” sculpture is unfortunately not possible at the moment, The Peninsula Manila chefs have crafted a 45th Anniversary Takeout and Delivery Menu of Lobby Favorites for you and yours to enjoy at home, like Avocado Toast, Asado Pork Belly Bao, and Gnocchi Carbonara, all at P450.
Spices
Yes, you're social distancing, but you can still enjoy the wonderful Asian flavors from Spices. If you're feeling nostalgic and wish to travel back in time, order the anniversary specials: Nasi Goreng, Vegetable Samosas, Tom Kha Gai, Free-range Chicken Satay, Salmon Fillet Tikka Masala, and Yam Sam-O, all at P450.
