XOXO With Love from Discovery Suites: A Valentine's Feast at 22 Prime

Make it special this Valentine's...at 22 Prime.

This Valentine's, leave it to 22 Prime at Discovery Suites for that perfect romantic feast with a special Three-Course His and Her Menu created by Executive Chef Gerwin Bailon for lunch or dinner from February 12 to 28, 2018. Read on and take a peek at 22 Prime's romantic feast...

Located high up at the 22nd floor of Discovery Suites, 22 Prime is the hotel's flagship restaurant known for its premium steaks (for more on 22 Prime, see my previous post, The Flavors of Christmas: Cirque du Noel at Discovery Suites). With panoramic views of the metro, it's the perfect spot for that intimate Valentine's lunch or dinner...

The special Valentine's Three-Course His and Her Menu is an elegantly curated feast highlighted by a refreshing salmon dish for her and a savory fillet mignon for him. Couples can also opt to mix and match the different courses to suit their preferences for even more tasty options at 22 Prime. The special Three-Course Menu for the lady starts with a Warm Vegetable Salad with grilled vegetables drizzled with balsamic, kesong puti and lemon foam. The subtle sweetness and smoky hints of the grilled vegetables come together kicked up by the sharpness of the balsamic vinaigrette, creamy kesong puti and vibrant citrus hints of the lemon foam. Fresh and clean flavors, 22 Prime's Warm Vegetable Salad sets your palate for the main course...

For the main course, the ornately plated Salmon Roulade is a visual feast in itself, feeding first the eyes before the palate. It's Valentine's, and 22 Prime makes it even more special with the elegant salmon course with oyster mushrooms, semi-dried cherry tomato, creamy cauliflower puree and nutty truffle sauce for a rich blend of flavors. The buttery flavor and texture of the salmon are complemented by the earthy notes of the oyster mushrooms, the silky smooth consistency of the cauliflower puree and the tartness of the cherry tomatoes capped by the deep and indulgent flavors of the truffle sauce. Light yet satisfying and full of flavor, and perfect for Valentine's.  

The special Three-Course Valentine's Menu for the lady ends with the indulgent White Chocolate Mousse with moist chocolate cake draped with raspberry coulis topped with vanilla tuile. And this one tastes as good as it looks.

Now that you've seen the special menu for the lady, here's 22 Prime's Valentine's set for the gentlemen starting with the hearty Lentil and Spinach Soup. The thick broth is both comforting and flavorful made with yellow split lentil puree and spinach with paprika foam. The creamy texture of the soup is tempered by the sharp and bold notes of bacon for balanced flavors that warms both the body and palate.

And here's the beef. For the main course, the Sous Vide Fillet Mignon reflects 22 Prime's culinary signature with premium USDA beef delicately prepared with the sous-vide technique for that melt-in-your-mouth savory richness. The premium beef is masterfully executed with its juicy pink center. 22 Prime knows their beef and steaks, and they do it well. The tender fillet mignon is laid on sweet corn puree, wilted greens, mushrooms and salsa verde that adds both color and flavor to complete the dish. That's my idea of a romantic dinner. Just perfect. 

For dessert, the Pistachio Sable with Tiramisu Roll caps an elegant Valentine's feast at 22 Prime. Not too sweet, the decadent blend of mascarpone and chocolate is the perfect ending to another elegant feast at 22 Prime. 

The special Valentine's Three-Course Menu is priced at P 1,850 net per person, or go all out with the Premium Package of P 5,500 net for two inclusive of a bouquet of flowers, two glasses of wine or Hoegaarden White, and a box of Pralines. The offer is available from February 12 to 28, 2018 at 22 Prime. This Valentine's, leave it to 22 Prime for a memorable romantic dining experience...
