Last Saturday, I decided to rearrange priorities and traded hours of sleep to tick off another craving from a long and mutating foodie list: The Peninsula Manila's Chocolate Buffet!
With just unde
r an hour and a half left til the midnight curfew, I had an uphill battle even with just what was left from, what we were told, was en extra busy night: fondues, ice creams, cookies, tarts, White Chocolate Pen Stones, Bailey's Chocolate Chip Cheesecake, White Chocolate Mousse with Passion Fruit, Heavenly Moist, Fallen Chocolate and 
Chocolate Fudge Cakes, and the famous Peninsula Truffles and 
Pralines. Of the lot, I enjoyed the Chocolate Pudding best- smooth, dark and warm, topped with crispy almond slices.
It was fortunate, too, that we chanced upon Dante Abalos (ID #102) from my very first BakiPa class, who has been working at Pastry for two years.
That indulgence now out of my system, it will henceforth go down as a once in a lifetime experience.
Tsokolate Ah! on Fridays and Saturdays (9pm to 12mn)
Buffet only- P550 +++ for adults, P225 +++ for children 12 years and under.
Chocolate and Champagne- P850 +++
