Last March 21, I was treated to a one of a kind dinner experience in New World Makati Hotel's Cantonese restaurant, Jasmine. It was a special dinner hosted by the hotel. We were treated with authentic Cantonese dishes specially prepared by Chef WongKam On and was paired with exquisite selection of wine from Cullen Wines of Australia.
First up on the special menu was Seared scallops, wagyu beef roll. Paired with Cullen Margaret River, White, 2011 (Bottom left).
Next up is the Steamed King Prawns with Garlic and Vermicelli noodle paired with Cullen Sauvignon Blanc Semillion. 2010 (Above right)
Next up, Deep-Fried Fish Fillet in Salted Egg Yolk and Steamed Egg White
Fried Rice, Diced chicken, Chinese Sausage paired with Cullen Mangan Vineyard, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Merlot 2011. (Bottom Left)
Fourth dish served was the Beef Short Ribs in Black Pepper Sauce with Steamed Fragrant Rice paired with Cullen Diane Madeline, Cabernet Sauvignon merlot, 2010 (Above right)
Now if that's not good enough for you guys, here's a nice one, Chilled Mango Pudding with Calamansi Sorbet paired with Cullen Late Harvest, Semillon 2012.
I wasn't able to take a photo of the Steamed bun, milk cream because I ate it even before I even got a hold of my camera. The culinary experience was truly one of a kind. The special Cantonese cuisine and Cullen wines set dinner is priced at PHP1,700 per person. Excludes the service charge.
Although the special dinner set is for that night only and not on the menu, give a bump on the head waiter or talk to the manager and mention the Cantonese cuisine meal with Cullen wines and I'm pretty sure they can do something about it. :)
