It's funny how I'm just a short walk away from Novotel Manila Araneta Center but this is the first time I've visited and it's no less than Gourmet Bar — a casual and chic restaurant offering international and local cuisines. As listed on their website, enjoy American burgers, Italian pasta, Spanish tapas and the likes at Gourmet Bar by Novotel. Super stoked to have been invited for another fun website FMU! Per usual with AccorHotels Group, elegance and sophistication is always evident under all their hotel chains globally. This holds true for Gourmet Bar by Novotel. The place is classy and chic without being too intimidating. Service is impeccable as everyone working here were all smiles and ready to cater to your needs. We were welcomed by their manager, Ms. Angela and she had us sample some of Gourmet Bar's newest offerings, below are my top picks —🍽 Homemade Bocconcini and Organic Cherry Tomatoes from El Dorado FarmMarinated El Dorado Farm cherry tomatoes and homemade mozzarella with truffle-basil pesto and aged balsamic soil. This one was beautifully presented. 👌🏻 The cherry tomatoes were crunchy and juicy which indicates freshness and perfectly paired with the mozzarella. A good appetizer before a meal. 🍽 Homesmoked Norwegian Salmon and Avruga CaviarServed with chives buffalo mozzarella and garnished with crispy sweet potato. Tasted not only of smoke but the salmon itself, it has a delicate texture and melts in your mouth. The avruga caviar (made of herring) on top is a nice touch. 🍽 Spanish OmeletteDehydrated serrano ham and organic greens from Novotel's El Dorado Farm. Omelettes are ALWAYS best eaten warm! Of course being foodies, our cameras eat first! The downside to this is once we get to the eating part, food is cold already. Which is a no-no for omelettes if you want to enjoy the full taste. Regardless, it was still delicious and savory albeit cold. 🍽 Black Linguine with Crab PasteHomemade black pasta with talangka paste, locally farmed rocket leaves and crispy maya-maya cubes. Probably my favorite among the dishes served! Though not as warm as it was first brought out, it was still very tasty and the pasta was al dente. 👌🏻 The crab paste lingers in your mouth and the maya-maya cubes added a nice contrast to the overall taste of the dish. 🍽 Beef Caldereta SliderWith red onions, gherkins and organic Baguio lettuce on homemade pandesal. BEEF CALDERETA SLIDER? Wait, what? Yes! Caldereta isn't just an ulam anymore, it's now a slider (mini burger)! The meat was tender and well-seasoned. Thanks to Gourmet Bar for introducing me to this unique dish! 😊 🍽 Pizza Lungga Bresaola Con Rucola GranaMozzarella cheese, parma ham, rocket leaves and parmesan flakes. One thing I liked about the menu line-up during this event was the abundance of cheese! Woohoo! 🧀 This pizza was another favorite of mine! Quite addicting. I could probably finish one whole pizza by myself if it weren't for my fellow foodies present. 😂 🍽 Stuffed BravasMade with potato, tomato and basil. Uniqely presented. It's a great finger food and I overly enjoyed this one as I love potatoes. Crispy on the outside with a nice soft and tasty potato filling. 🍽 Tropical Sunrise Passion fruit purée, lychee juice, orange juice and mint leaves with grenadine syrup. A sweet and fruity refreshing drink. I'd recommend this for non-drinkers of alcohol. It's also pretty to look at with its gradient colors and topped with lychee fruit. Overall, it was quite a filling lunch. Price point is good with the quality of food you'd get. Bring your family and friends for a great meal at Gourmet Bar by Novotel. 👌🏻💯website China China

Since we were Silver Member of the Le Accor Club, we’re always given complimentary welcome drinks everytime we stay at Novotel Manila. We opted to claim our drinks at the Gourmet Bar this time (we just ordered 2 Coke Zero). We decided to have some appetizers so we ended up ordering their Chorizo. Sad to say, we were not happy with our choice. Serving was too small and it was expensive for the serving size. Garlic bread was so hard, I was worried I would loose a tooth. Chorizo was too salty. We were happier with the complimentary buns and butter. We expected hotel food to be pricey but hopefully the offerings could be improved so as to satisfy the customers and match the quality with what is being paid for.Update: we claimed our complimentary drinks for our current stay at 3:30 am since hubby and I were still not sleepy. The person who assisted and served us was very accommodating and pleasant. He even gave hubby complimentary chips and peanuts to match with his Draft Beer. We were very happy with the service. Keep it up! Oh! I was happy with the Ripe Mango Shake I ordered since they made it pure and didn’t put any syrup to it so no unnecessary added sugar for me.

(Included are pictures of breakfast and lunch buffets, but during all three Gourmet Bar visits, we ordered a la carte) My parents and I have been back in Novotel three times already(meaning we've been there four times---really, Lara, is that what it means? ;-p) and during those three times we've been back, we ate at the Gourmet Bar and we were exceptionally served, especially by Yanyan. They are not greedy too. They could offer the more expensive fare, but they suggested that we avail of their budget friendly promos, especially during the Lunar Year/Lenten/Valentine's week. Kudos to the whole Food and Beverage team of Novotel Manila. Keep up the good work. (Oh, before I forget, besides the great service, we enjoyed the taste of the food too---Honestly, we've tasted better, but the taste of their food is commendable) ;-) #WalkInClients#HappyTummies#PropsToYanYan #ForCubaoItIsOnThePriceySideButTheyDoHavePromosFromTimeToTime
