This season, Novotel Manila Araneta City’s flagship dining destination, Food Exchange Manila, invites diners and families to indulge in inspired themed buffets that promise more than just food.
“At Food Exchange Manila, we don’t just serve dishes; we tell stories on a plate,” shared Chef Massimiliano Pauletto, the cluster director of culinary for the first Novotel and ibis Styles brands in the country.
“With Trattoria Pauletto, I wanted to bring the warmth and heart of an Italian family kitchen to Manila — the kind of meal where every bite feels like a memory. And with Sailing Through Flavors of the Coast, we journey through the sun-drenched Mediterranean, celebrating the sea’s bounty and age-old coastal traditions. It’s about more than just flavors; it’s about sharing culture, connection, and the joy of a truly good meal,” he said.
Held every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 6 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., this buffet offers an abundance of Italian favorites.
