Solaire Resort’s Chocolate Month Features Chocolate Afternoon Tea and Chocolate Sunday Brunch
Solaire Resort and Casino is celebrating Chocolate Month this July with a delectable array of chocolate-inspired treats and promotions. Oasis Garden Cafe is featuring a unique and indulgent chocolate-themed afternoon tea that is available daily from 2:00pm to 4:00pm. The Hungry Kat was invited to sample this very luscious afternoon treat last week and I am already planning to go back for more of this chocolate haven.
Solaire Resort will make all our chocolate fantasies come true as they embark on the Solaire Chocolate Festival. Throughout the month of July, there will be special chocolate afternoon tea sets at Oasis Garden Café as well as new chocolate-inspired cakes and bespoke chocolate bars at The Patisserie. There will also be a special Chocolate Sunday Brunch at specific hotel restaurants every Sunday so you will never run out of sweet chocolatey options.
Oasis Garden Cafe is the hotel’s lobby lounge located at the Sky Tower Atrium. This is a more secluded area that is away from the noisy casinos and crowds. You can find it near the luxury shops just across Fresh International Buffet.
They also have a pianist and violinist playing classical and contemporary tunes to give the cafe a more sophisticated dining ambiance.
Oasis Garden Cafe offers a wide selection of coffee, tea, traditional snacks and artisanal finger sandwiches during the day. By night, the Garden Café transforms into a stylish lounge that offers a full complement of cocktails and drinks.
For the entire month of June and July, Oasis Garden Cafe transforms into a chocolate haven with chocolate desserts and its Chocolate Afternoon Tea. Solaire Resort Executive Pastry Chef Ben Haslett made sure that guests will be able to enjoy a variety of chocolate-infused treats, from cakes to pastries and savory bites as they celebrate Chocolate Month.
Guests will also be able to indulge in a variety of cakes, including Chocolate on Chocolate, Intense Chocolate Choux, and Mocha & Caramel. Bon bons on offer include Vanilla Bean and Milk Chocolate Auro 42%, Yuzu & Black Sesame Auro Paquibato 70%, Mango Coconut Crunch with Auro White Chocolate, and Raspberry with Auro Saloy 70%.
The main attraction at Oasis Garden Cafe this July is the Chocolate Afternoon Tea (P1,900+) in partnership with Auro Chocolate. I was really excited to sample this special chocolate set which I had yet to try.
I started with their Chocolate Martini which comes with a vibrant mix of vodka, chocolate liquor, and Baileys Irish cream. This comes with the afternoon tea set but you can also choose a non-alcoholic beverage like the Chocolate Milkshake instead.
The Chocolate Afternoon Tea comes with many indulgent and unique treats. Similar to the classic high tea, it comes with a set of scones with clotted cream.
However, the Chocolate Afternoon Tea also comes with these chocolate chip scones and chocolate syrup that you can put on the scones. It’s a different experience compared to the strawberry jam that I usually eat with my scones.
Guests will be able to indulge in a variety of sweet treats including Chocolate Brioche, Amarena Cherry, Vanilla Chocolate Crème, Milk Chocolate Sponge, Milk Chocolate Crémeux, Mango Creme, Calamansi Chocolate & Pistachio Praline, Coffee Filo, Chocolate Caramel and Hazelnut Mignon, Raspberry, White Chocolate & Lime with Breton.
Savory bites on the afternoon tea menu include Chicken sausage and quinoa pie, Beef Bourguignon in rich chocolate sauce, Sesame tuna with chocolate pretzel stick, Potato nest and chorizo, Solaire smoked salmon sandwich, Lobster and avocado in charcoal brioche toast, Roast beef and burrata in chocolate banana bread, and Creamy chicken in garlic baguette.
There’s also some Chocolate Crinkle Cookies that you can dip inside a cup of Hot Chocolate Sphere doused with warm milk. You can’t get more indulgent that this.
To celebrate the Solaire Chocolate Festival, Chef Ben and Auro Co-Founder Kelly Go gave us a short demonstration of how chocolate is actually made. Before this, I never really knew about the process of making chocolate from cacao, so it was really a very interesting and educational afternoon.
Chef Ben showed us the first step in the chocolate creation process, which is harvesting the cacao seeds from the big cacao pods. Do you know that it takes years to grow a cacao tree and around 1,000 dried cacao beans to make just 1 kilogram of chocolate?
This is what cacao actually looks like in its raw, harvested state. Chef Ben even let us taste these cacao seeds and it is so far from what chocolate tastes like. Auro Chocolate directly works with local cacao-producing cooperatives, organizations and farms so that it directly supports them and their work.
The next step is fermenting the seeds for 4 to 6 days in wooden boxes. Then are then dried under the sun and roasted to develop the flavor.
The final step would be mixing the roasted cacao together with sugar, milk, and other ingredients to product the type of chocolate desired.
Aside from the Chocolate Afternoon Tea at Oasis, Solaire also has special chocolate Sunday brunches available throughout July. The Finestra Sunday Brunch (P5,555+) on July 2, 2023 will feature a chocolate garden, family style chocolate desserts, and nitrogen affogato, where velvety smooth espresso meets the rich embrace of luscious Auro chocolate. They will also have a chocolate inspired candy trolly, all with Auro Chocolate.
The Waterside Sunday Brunch (P3,499+) on July 9, 2023 features a chocolate brunch with a grazing table of chocolates, a month-long chocolate desserts and chocolate mega milkshakes bar.
On July 16, the Yakumi Sunday Brunch (P3,888+) will let diners enjoy chocolate infused bento desserts, a chocolate bamboo cup dessert, plus chocolate and Japanese Whisky Bon Bons with custom Omamori for giveaway. Fresh International Buffet will also showcase a special Chocolate Sunday Brunch (P2,999+) on July 23, 2023. Diners can enjoy the chocolate fountain for lunch and dinner with chocolate savory dishes, and a chocolate dessert bar.
Executive Chef Andrea Spagoni and special guest Chef Rhea Rizzo of the famed Mrs. Saldo’s caps Solaire’s month-long celebration of Chocolate Month with an exquisite Four Hands Dinner (P8,888+) at Finestra Italian Steakhouse on July 26 and 27, 2023.
Single-origin and vintage chocolates as well as all aspects of the cacao are featured in this creative collaboration, which combines Chef Andrea’s classic Italian flavors with Chef Rhea’s vibrant spices. Before the 7-course seafood and meat dinner, guests will be treated to chocolate-infused canapés and cocktails. The dinner then ends with a decadent dessert. Take advantage of all these exciting chocolate promotions and events at Solaire Resort this July. Choose your favorite chocolate activity and book your seats now!

@solaireresort opened its Hotel rooms to the public last January 1, 2021. Guests are required to take the Rapid Antibody Test (RAT) before checking in and it’s FREE for the guests. Non-transferable wristbands for lift access are given. The door is sealed meaning your room has been disinfected and cleaned thoroughly. And they have a complimentary self-care kit for you! Happy to be one of the patrons to be given an exclusive 2 nights stay at the Bay Tower this January. I’m using my 1 of 2 nights today with my good friend and Beb @hfyambao 💚 #Staycation #HotelDiaries #pamperingday #kween #kweenb #kweenbitch #shandii #shandiij #jossa #solairebaytower #solaireexperience #solaireresort #thisbitchrighthere #imthatbitch #msb #msb2021 #teammsb (at Solaire Resort) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKBW9lAHaRN/?igshid=idvwi3oq3240

The Philippine Sustainability Movement Event 2023 Returns at the Marriott Grand Ballroom
After four years, The Philippine Sustainability Movement Event returned at the Marriott Grand Ballroom last June 16 with its 2023 edition. Formerly called Sustainable Seafood Week in 2017 and then The Philippine Sustainability Month in 2019, it has now further expanded into an all-encompassing movement determined to create a sustainable future.
A total of 39 organizations, including Manila's top hotels in partnership with SeaTrace International, came together once again with environmental groups, fisheries, and NGOs to declare their support for the promotion of sustainable seafood, plastic reduction, as well as the need for certifications and responsible sourcing. The Hungry Kat was invited again to participate in this exclusive event as a media partner to promote this noble endeavor.
Through the property-wide I Love Earth (ILE) sustainability initiative, Newport World Resorts, along with the hotel properties within the entire complex, is organizing efforts to maximize its impact for the greatest good of the planet. ILE Chair and Marriott International Multi-property Vice President, Bruce Winton opened the festivities and welcomed all the participants and media guests.
Marriott upholds its commitment to provide wonderful hospitality, acknowledging the pivotal role that culinary arts plays in achieving a holistic experience hence creating wonderful memories that surpass a lifetime. Marriott Hotel Manila, being part of the country's pioneering integrated resort, is taking a bolder step into repurposing its now newer and bigger world into a sustainable haven for all.
Christian Schmidradner, Managing Partner and COO of SeaTrace International and the Initiator and Co-Founder of the Sustainable Seafood movement, discussed how important it is that all sectors and parties cooperate to achieve and promote this sustainability movement.
Of course, we were all excited to see what these five-star hotels and establishments had prepared for tonight’s Philippine Sustainability Movement Event 2023.
Apart from respective groups' successful projects in the implementation of their ESG/CS programs, the highlight of the event was the wide spread of sustainable seafood creations prepared by the chefs from the different hotel groups. ILE Sustainable Culinary Champion and Marriott Hotel Manila's Executive Chef Meik Brammer led the opening of the buffet tables and the entrance of a very special item.
This huge tuna made its grand entrance as it was lowered down from Marriott Grand Ballroom’s ceiling. Okura Manila Japanese Executive Chef Keiichiro Fujino brought out his samurai-looking sword and led the ceremonial cutting of the tuna for all the guests to enjoy.
These were honestly some of the best and freshest Tuna Sashimi I have ever had! I really loved them so much that I had around five servings of this sashimi.
But that wasn’t all because all the hotels and establishments prepared their own sustainable dishes for all of the guests.
Hilton Manila featured their Maya Maya Springrolls and Spanner Crab Hakao which both used sustainable seafood ingredients.
One of the main attractions at the event was the Solaire Resort and Casino booth with its lobster items. The Crispy Yam comes with lobster claw, black pepper, wasabi, and szechuan chili sauce. This uses claws from big American Lobsters while the meat and lobster tails were also used in their other pasta dish.
From City of Dreams Manila comes the Lumpia Dinagat with its prawn and crab meat. This is made using meat from Mangrove Crabs or locally known as mud crabs or alimango which support year-round local fishing in coastal mangrove areas. It also uses meat from Vannamei Shrimp which are harvested from protected mangrove forests in Vietnam. All seafood products featured are sponsored by SeaTrace International, Inc.
Sheraton Hotel Manila showcased its Sustainable Emperor Fish which had ginataang isda, coconut cream sauce, spinach oil, squash, petchay and okra.
Okada Manila also made its presence felt by promoting sustainable practices with their Marinated Prawns Gunkan, a beautiful dish made with sustainable prawns, smoked scallop, and yoghurt dill oil dressing.
They also featured their Kasuba Gnocchetti Sardi with prawn head reduction, stracciatella cheese, thymes, and lemon oil.
SeaTrace International also had their own booth offering live oysters from the United States and Ireland.
The Irish Gallagher Oysters are handpicked at 30 months for their premium quality. The brackish water combination of sea water and fresh water rich in minerals in a bay off the pristine west coast of Ireland gives it its unique taste. These were all freshly shucked and placed on ice for the freshest oyster experience.
Novotal Manila brought out its Risotto Kamias Pollock Gremolata. This comes with Risotto all’onda, pickled kamias, lemon powder, onion gel, poached pollock marinated in herbs.
There were many other dishes on display at the different booths. Atlantic Salmon is one of the most consumed fish around the world and are usually harvested in certified farms complying with environmental regulations.
Okoy de Hake is their version of the famous Filipino street food using broiled hake garlic butter vegetable fritters. Hake is a soft, white, flaky fish with a texture more delicate than haddock and cod.
PYC Foods Corporation is a local food importer that also carries some of the best seafood items you can find here. Their salmon sashimi and aburi were some of the more popular items that evening. They also featured imported beef which is part of their artisanal lineup.
Even the chefs at CCA Manila presented their own creations using sustainable ingredients. Everyone had a great time at the event with the chefs also trying out their compatriot’s offerings and exchanging their own ideas to promote these sustainable practices.
We would like to thank Archie Nicasio, Cluster Director of Marketing Communications for Marriott Manila, and the rest of the hotel participants for making the Philippine Sustainability Movement Event 2023 a resounding success. Let’s make the world a better place for our children by promoting and implementing these sustainable practices for a more sustainable future.
