From January 27 to February 3, experience A Taste of China and indulge in sumptuous Chinese dishes at Miele Guide’s 5th Best Restaurant in the country. The food fest will highlight authentic Chinese dishes like Eight Treasure Bean Curd Soup, Beef Steak in Beijing Leek’s, Bean Curd with Seafood, Salted Black Bean Sauce and Roasted Duck to name a few.
Café Marco, where every dining experience is a celebration, offers a variety of local, Asian, and Western cuisines from its show kitchens on top of the Chinese buffet spread for this special occasion.
Marco Polo Plaza will begin the celebration with the annual Yee Sang Tossing Ceremony to be participated in by special guests from the media and Filipino-Chinese community. They will then gather around the Yee Sang, and using Marco Polo Plaza’s signature giant chopsticks, toss the salad into the air. Yee Sang is also known as the Prosperity Toss and it is said that the higher you toss it, the more luck you will have.
Aside from the Yee Sang ceremony today, a lion and dragon dance will also commence at the hotel to bring in more good fortune. There will also be the traditional tossing of coins and a firecrackers display. Another ceremony will also be held in the morning of January 31.
