Escolta at The Peninsula Manila takes you on a culinary round-the-world experience as it launches their latest themed weekdays, THE WORLD ON YOUR PLATE! I’m glad I got invited to its Monday dinner offering of the South Americas, since I have not had churrasco in quite some time. Escolta’ new concept in dining is to have culinary treasures of the world, every day of the week. Mondays: The Americas, Tuesday: highlights the fresh ingredients of Korea and Japan, Wednesday: showcases the best of Asia, Thursday: takes you to Italy, Friday&Saturday: evenings are reserved for a seafood celebration while Sunday: is for Champagne brunches! Fun huh?!
