Latin American cuisine in Manila are rare and we only got 1 or 3 restaurants who offer the special food from South America. The Latin American food is a bit closer to our Filipino food, all are meaty, creamy, tomatoey, spicy, salty and savory! Because some of our food here were heavy influenced by the Spanish and Americans during their colonization in the past.

If you are hunting for some good food that originates from Chile, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil and other South American  regions, then you should check out Crimson Filinvest City Manila in Alabang their monthly WORLD ON A PLATE special at CAFE EIGHT.

For the month of September 2017, they will be bringing here the SABOR LATINO Latin American buffet specials at Cafe Eight for lunch and dinner.

Cafe Eight is not that spacious if you compare it in other restaurant who are located inside the hotel, but Cafe Eight its the most cozy and luxurious dining venue in a hotel in Alabang City. And I love their pinoy food and also desserts.

Crimson Hotel Filinvest City really are serious in putting up a Latin American theme in their hotel, here we found some maracas and also performers dancing with music of Despacito.

Too early for us for some alcohol,but its one of the best "pamana" to us pinoys to be a "manginginom" or being an alcoholic. Here's a nice cold mojito and tequila to warm you up before your big bit of spicy empanada, not your pinoy version, but its the Latin American original of an empanada.

Aji de Gallina - a Peruvian spicy creamed chicken

-- My favorite and a must try!, the taste is close to our chicken, beef or lengue pastel. But its more creamier and tastier.

Charquican - Chilean beef stew

-- this one is close to our pinoy beef caldereta dish, but our version taste much stronger

You can ask the chef for your preference of your own quesadillas


DSC_0123

That's the biggest empanada that I've ever seen!


DSC_0124

Each empanada contains ground beef with sauce. To have a much savory flavor, I suggest you add some hot sauce on it and add more in every bite.


MY PLATE

For every food special of a hotel, I always make sure that all food on my plate contains the main food special. For this time, I went all Sabor Latino!

Jerrycala is so good! but its very sinful due to the super sweet taste of the milk content and its cream.
OMG! it became more good when they've added more fruits on top.

And my favorite Sabor Latino dish is the Peruvian
