Chili Crab (Cebu City Marriott Hotel)

Guests can choose from a variety of fresh sea harvest cooked according to their preference. Lobsters, prawns and crabs are popular choices. The sweet chilli crabs or prawns always stand out as top crowd favorites especially when Executive Chef Chachpol Suaisom whips up his special Thai-influenced and inspired sweet chili sauce, according to Frances Alfafara, marketing communications manager.

For dessert, check out this Thai-inspired delight called Decadent Bittersweet Chocolate Lemon Grass Panacotta which was served during the Dinner in the Dark event at the hotel last October. It’s something you don’t see every day.

A more subdued option would be the Chocolate Moringga cake, where the lemongrass panacotta is replaced with Moringga-infused panacotta instead.
