...reflecting the meticulous attention to detail that goes with each order. It's the little things that go a long way for a special home dining experience.

And here's a secret. Novotel Manila Araneta City offers some of the very best Indian cuisine this side of the metro, and the new Take Me Out by Novotel Manila Flavors of Summer includes authentic dishes like the Kodi Biryani (P 680), slow-cooked Indian Basmati rice infused with a rich blend of spices with tender and juicy chicken served with a side of refreshing Raita made with yogurt, herbs, onions and cucumber.

The soft Indian Basmati rice absorbs all the flavors from the different ingredients, delivering a flavorful burst with each bite. The complex blend of authentic spices doesn't overwhelm the palate, instead it gradually builds up bold notes from multiple layers of distinct flavors. Like I said, Novotel Manila Araneta City serves some of the finest Indian cuisine in Quezon City at the Food Exchange, and the Kodi Biryani is proof of this. Everything just comes together in a seamless blend laying a savory richness on the palate, gaining in intensity with succeeding bites. 

Richly spiced yet delicately balanced, the Kodi Biryani is a refreshing alternative to the usual fare for dining at home. The spices also cools you down. And there's no better way to celebrate summer than with the bold notes of the authentic Indian dish. The juicy chicken and fresh herbs complete the dish. From the deep and rich notes of the authentic spice blend and freshness of ingredients, the sumptuous Kodi Biryani by Novotel Manila Araneta Center is a hearty one-pot main dish at home for the whole family. 

Take Me Out by Novotel Manila offers other authentic Indian options for pick-up, take-out and delivery such as Palak Paneer, Dal Tadka, Aloo Paratha, the vegetarian Tarkari Biryani and Murgh Tikka Masala. Take your palate on a culinary journey with authentic Indian flavors without leaving home, just leave it to Take Me Out by Novotel Manila to deliver and satisfy your cravings.

The coming of summer also means eating healthier, and Take Me Out by Novotel Manila indulges you with their savory Vegan Burger (P 450), a tasty plant-based alternative with garden fresh and crisp greens from their very own El Dorado Farm including tart pickles, tomatoes and sweet white onions served with a side of fries.

Plant-based burgers have been popular on the net lately, and Take Me Out by Novotel Manila adds its own version to your countless list of healthy options. A healthy diet is, after all, your first line of defense in these challenging times. Creating a good vegan burger can be quite tricky, as recreating the same juicy and savory notes of the usual burger without using beef is never easy. One loses that distinct mouthfeel and juicy finish that drapes one palate with each bite. But this Vegan Burger is just one of many surprises from the kitchens of Novotel Manila Araneta City. 

Perfectly grilled with its lattice-like charred grill marks, the richly seasoned vegan patty has that juicy and chunky texture that recreates the same mouthfeel of a hefty beef patty. Biting into it releases rich savory notes, followed by the fresh and clean flavors of pickles, lettuce, tomatoes and onions for that flavorful layered finish. Where's the beef? You won't miss it with the Vegan Burger from Take Me Out by Novotel Manila.  

And it's quite filling too. Paired with fries, you can enjoy a classic burger meal with all the flavors you love without the guilt. And just like your favorite burger, you get to experience close to the same savory richness with its deep juicy notes and that subtle fresh off the grill smoky hints with each bite.

A guiltless and savory indulgence is just what you need this summer in the new normal. With none of the flavors held back, you get all the unrestrained juicy notes of an honest-to-goodness burger minus the guilt and fuss. It's also the perfect way to get acquainted with plant-based substitutes whose benefits far outweigh traditional options without missing out on flavor. 

  

Your side of fries comes with ketchup and mayo, and again, it's the little details from Take Me Out by Novotel Manila Araneta City that make your dining experience at home special and complete.

Part of the fun of any dining experience is discovering new flavors, and the Vegan Burger is a great way to include plant-based options in your diet. Starting a healthy diet is easy with the Vegan Burger from Take Me Out by Novotel Manila. And the best part? You can have it conveniently delivered to your doorstep with a quick call or message on your mobile device. 

Gelato cravings? Here's another insider tip. Novotel Manila Araneta Center also offers some of the best gelato in Quezon City with their popular Indulge Gelato. It's one of the best kept secrets in this side of the city. 

Indulge Gelato at Novotel Manila Araneta City has always been one of their best-selling attractions, more so in summer even in this new normal. Responding to the emerging consumer habit of dining at home, you can have your favorite gelato flavor from Indulge Gelato delivered to your home packed in sealed pints (P 380). And you may want to try the newest flavor variant from Indulge Gelato... 

Indulge Gelato draws inspiration from the popular local street food staple, the ubiquitous taho, with its own unique and lavish twist. The Taho Gelato by Indulge Gelato brings the comfortingly familiar notes of the silky bean curd dessert with an equally rich and decadent silky smooth finish. And it's a perfect match.  

From the dense gelato to the tapioca pearls, this is your favorite taho taken to the next level of pure indulgence. The lightly nutty notes of the taho gelato deliver a fresh and clean finish while the tapioca pearls pop with a sweetness to complete your Taho Gelato experience. 

Indulgent? Definitely. And each bite takes you back to carefree childhood summers like a comforting hug to the palate. The new flavor is both creative and inventive, and there's just no end to the limitless possibilities of flavors from Indulge Gelato by Novotel Manila Araneta City.
