Hilton Manila is enhancing its commitment to sustainable dining through an exclusive partnership with Unilever Food Solutions, bringing to life a curated buffet experience at Kusina Sea Kitchens from November 10 to 30, 2024. Available for lunch from 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM (PHP 2,800++) and dinner from 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM (PHP 3,000++), this collaboration infuses Filipino cuisine with global food trends, and feature environmentally conscious dishes crafted from thoughtfully sourced ingredients.
Hilton Manila’s Executive Chef Lord Bayaban has joined forces with Unilever’s esteemed culinary team —Chef Brando Santos, Chef Carlos Aluning, and Chef Paulo Sia—to present a menu that reimagines comfort foods, and caters to health-conscious diners, ensuring a delightful yet nourishing dining experience.
The buffet draws inspiration from eight key global food trends identified by Unilever, such as bold flavour combinations, plant-based proteins, locally abundant ingredients, and low-waste dining practices. These trends are reflected in dishes such as the Lechon Baka Slider with Creamy Atchara Dressing, delivering a flavor shock that pushes culinary boundaries, the Slow-Roasted Cauliflower Bistek Tagalog, showcasing plant-forward innovation. Guests can also savour the Mustasa Rolls with Grilled Pork Belly with Burong Hipon, made with locally sourced ingredients, and enjoy interactive dining with the Inasal Kwek-Kwek Platter. The Dinakdakan Tacos creatively utilizes every viable pork part, while the Lumpiang Pinakbet celebrates fresh local vegetables. Also featured are Crispy Pancit with Mixed Seafood Kare-Kare, a modern approach to a classic comfort dish, and the Adobong Tuna Silog with Tornado Eggs and Tomato Gravy balances bold flavors with nutritious feel-good ingredients.
To further enhance the dining experience, Hilton Manila and Unilever are hosting an exciting raffle throughout the promotion. Diners receive one raffle ticket for each meal, with a chance to win exclusive prizes such as an overnight stay at Hilton Manila, a Kusina dinner for two, an iPad Gen 10, and more. The raffle draw will be held on December 1, 2024.
“Sustainability is at the core of everything we do at Hilton Manila, which is why this partnership with Unilever is so meaningful,” says John Lucas, General Manager of Hilton Manila. “This buffet exemplifies our commitment to eco-conscious dining — introducing innovative Filipino dishes made with responsibly sourced produce and supporting local farming communities. Through Hilton’s Travel With Purpose vision and Newport World Resorts’ I Love Earth initiative, we aim to create memorable guest experiences that positively impact the environment and communities in the Cordillera region .”
