The Tivoli at Mandarin Oriental, Manila in the Philippines has excellent foods!

I just had a splendid and satisfying dinner with five friends at the ever-reliable The Tivoli at Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Makati City, Metro Manila, the Philippines last night on July 2, 2013.

Review: This fine dining restaurant strategially-located right in the center of the Makati financial district is consistently excellent in high-quality Western-style foods, richly elegant and quiet ambience, the staff were attentive and very well-trained.

My advice, if ordering starters or appetizers, two persons can share one order. I ordered Sauteed duck foie gras, asparagus, mango and green papaya chutney, and the delightful plate was quite large and ideal for two people! It was delicious, but too much if only one person eating it. Delicious! P1,110 pesos per order.

I ordered Asparagus cream, salmon wanton and chives for hot soup; very good! P540 pesos.

The main course I ordered was the US beef tendeloin Rossini, potatoes salardaise, I requested medium rare cooking.  Delicious. P 2,230 pesos.

Along with main course of beef, I ordered red wine.

I and my friends ordered two more steaks which we all equally shared---the Australian Wagyu Blue Label Rib Eye grade 9+, it was very soft, tender and super delicious! Price is P6,000 pesos and not always available according to the resto staff. The other steak we shared was only one-third the price, but also delicious---Wisconsin beef.

Congratulations to the management of Mandarin Oriental Mamila, especially the Australian Director of Food and Beverage Peter Pysk (who is here at this hotel for only four months now), Director of Communications Charisse G. Chuidian and the French national Chef Remi Vercelli.
