I’ve used my
free dinner voucher at Conrad last Sunday with my
sister, Chai. Brasserie on 3 is located at the 3rd level
of the hotel. The entire structure of the hotel looks like a cruise ship. My
sister noticed that as soon as we saw Conrad from a far. The hotel exuded a
glamour of high quality and elegance. The chic interior is quite stunning
with its tall glass panels and post modern motif of Conrad.
I made the
reservation over the phone, coz I’m afraid that there will be numbers folks
coming in for holiday dinner. Upon arrival, I showed my Hilton voucher and the
staff led us to our table. We were welcomed by the dessert station loaded
with sweet goodies – and since it’s almost Christmas, the ginger
bread house stood bright and proud right at the entrance to welcome the guest.
To my
surprise, the place isn’t crowded, which is good! Hahaha. The place is
spacious, decors are new and modern. They also have a nice view of the Manila
Bay, which is a bonus points for me.
The food
choices are quite limited, compared to other buffet in the metro, but the
tang pleased my palate. Nothing wowed me really, except of course the place
itself. There wasn't any distinctive dish in the selection that was worth noting.
There’s the
sushi station, salad bar, few selections of cheese, dried fruits and nuts,
dessert station, Sinigang station where they serve some piping hot bowls of
shrimps, pork and salmon, and yes, they also offered Bulalo. We’ve tried the
Shrimp Sinigang and it tastes really good. Feels like you’re eating the dish at
your lola’s house. The taste is so Pinoy.
There’s also a
Carving section, where they serve lamb, turkey, baby back ribs and beef. They
also a got seafood station – there are only few crabs, prawns and mussels that
time, but they are fresh – as well as the sushi. We requested for baked
mussels and grilled prawns with butter. The prawns arrived at our table
shortly, and was told that the baked mussels will be served in a few, but until
we’ve finished our food, that ever requested mussel didn’t arrive. Hahaha.
Where did it go? I don’t know. ☺
The dishes are
mostly Filipinos, don’t expect much of the international cuisine, I guess
they’re trying to promote the Filipino dishes to their guests.
Since we used
the voucher, I asked the staff of the rate.
Lunch 11:30 AM
to 2:30 PM | Mon-Sat
PHP1500
Lunch 11:30 AM
to 2:30 PM | Sun
PHP2500
Dinner 6:00 PM
to 10:30 PM |
Mon-Sun
PHP1650
By the way
drinks are not included in the rate. Their soda and teas cost Php200++, so we
just enjoyed our free drink – water! ☺ The staff are very attentive and
always ready to attend to your needs.
The
overall experience is ok. It’s kinda pricey for me, but I’m glad that we had
this dinner for free as part of our hotel incentive. They are just newly open
and I can see some potential, I guess they need more time and need some
marketing strategies to improve it and to show the real Conrad.

Again,
thank you CWT and Hilton for this dinner.
PS.
I
took lotsa photos last Sunday for my blog and trip advisor review.
Unfortunately, I have accidentally factory reset my phone. I lost all the
pictures. The above photo’s my sister’s, so I’m so sorry if I cant share
the beautiful interior of the Hotel etc. Yes, I am blaming myself for being so
careless.
Love,
Ash xx
