Time for Mami at Hotel Rembrandt's Merienda Buffet

Nothing like a steaming hot bowl of chicken noodle soup on a cloudy afternoon...


...and you can enjoy a bowl or two and more at The Lobby of Hotel Rembrandt with their daily Merienda Buffet guaranteed to take out the blues from the rainy day. Or any day...

At The Lobby of Hotel Rembrandt, the daily Merienda Buffet spread is laid out starting at 2pm all the way until 5:30pm. And for only P 199+ per person, you can indulge in a wide variety of local and international snacks at your own leisurely pace. Start with some Pasta, freshly prepared at the Live Cooking Station (R)...


...and create your own customized pasta dish. Choose your noodles, your sauce (a rich red marinara sauce or a creamy white sauce), and your toppings, and the station chef will whip it up for you ala minute, served fresh and hot from the pan.


You can also find a variety of local desserts, like the sweet Minatamis na Kamote...


...and Sticky Rice with Chocolate, with soft, chewy, and creamy glutinous rice cooked in coconut milk topped with a chocolate shard.


Your mid-afternoon snack continues with the traditional and colorful Puto, or steamed rice cakes...


...and some chewy Buchi, glutinous rice balls with black bean filling, sprinkled with sesame seeds, great when paired with some tea.


Or you can indulge in something savory, like The Lobby's Crispy Chicken Sliders, with a crisp and juicy chicken patty with tomatoes and rich mayo dressing. And you can have as much as you want, all for only P 199+ per person. Now that's a pretty cool deal.


But that day, the afternoon rains made me crave for Mami, a hearty and comforting soup made with chicken stock, flat and wide chewy egg noodles, and tender strips of chicken, topped with slices of boiled egg, and green onions. And just like the pasta, you can customize your own bowl of mami, with a variety of toppings. And for that extra kick, add some chili oil, and you've got a perfect bowl of mami. And everything just feels so right, even on a rainy day...

Hotel Rembrandt is located at 26 Tomas Morato, Quezon City or call 373-3333 for inquiries and reservations.
