  The food quality is outstanding. In my opinion, better than other buffets in the same price range.4 stars due to the somewhat limited selection of dishes, but the usual buffet essentials are there.

  Their steak carvings are amazing! Juicy hefty pieces of prime meat, so good! And of course fresh seafoods cooked to your liking.The whole buffet is just perfect, from appetizers to desserts, you will definitely go home happy and full.

  Had dinner here today, and tried their buffet. I dont know why i feel disappointed with the food choices. Though the food taste okay, the choices were not as much as i was expecting. For seafood, they only have shrimp, mussels and crab (alimasag). You can choose from asian style cooking (sweet and spicy) or western (buttered garlic). For beef, they only have prime rib and chuck eye. The crowd dresses casually, like super casual one foreigner was wearing sando. Servers and cooks are snobbish, i assume because they dont have much employee which made them more busy and more grumpy. Felt disappointed with everything. I was hesitating to eat here at first, cause our first choice was 7 corners. But finally we tried here because of some good reviews from the net. Anyway, got full as usual.

  The servers are accommodating, and the ambience is also nice. What’s good about their buffet? Their choices are not limited to the ones displayed. You can also request for your choice of dish. We requested for salt and pepper shrimps, sweet chili shrimps, clam soup, aglio olio, and more! You can also grab their BDO promo.Note: Selected drinks (plus beer) are included!

  What an honor to have been invited to a night of good food matched with a wonderful company at the New World Manila Bay Hotel. It was a pleasure to be back here, it was still Hyatt when I visited years ago. They launched a theme recently for their daily sumptuous buffet at the Market Cafe and I could not have been more excited to be there. It’s a celebration of the Flavors of Spain, which runs until August 31. A taste of the Iberian Peninsula and a feast from the Mediterranean is what awaited us here at the hotel’s main buffet spot.The Market Cafe welcomes you with such a festive atmosphere, with the warm and friendly attendants on the buffet floor appropriately donning Spanish costumes to complete the look and feel. Spread sporadically around the Cafe are tables of Spanish products as prepared by Terry’s Selection, a one-stop shop for curated European culinary items and food products.Rounds of Sangria Lolea were also graciously poured into our glasses at our demand amidst the cheese and charcuterie plates assembled and spread throughout our table. Excellent choice of cheeses occupied one wooden plank paired with dried fruits – La Corrala, Idiazabal, Buenalba, and the unique Red Wine-Infused Manchego. Another board was graced with slices of Serrano Salami, Fuet Extra, and Spanish Chorizo and garnished with sliced pickles and shallots. At the central area of the buffet, a humongous pig hind leg is suspended on a wooden structure, definitely the Jamon Serrano that is central to this Spanish feast. Expertly sliced into thin sheets, it comes along with other Spanish cold cuts with pairings and condiments fit for such a glorious piece of jamon. That is different types of cheeses and nuts, curate your own charcuterie plate. That’s exactly what I did.There was also Arroz Negra a classic Spanish rice dish made with squid ink and generously garnished with seafood; Estofado de Pollo, which is chicken stew the Spanish way; Carne de Cerdo Braseada, rustic pork dish braised in hearty and rich tomato soup and olives; and the Grass-fed Prime Rib at the carving station – a huge hunk of premium beef goodness, which they grill to medium for your protein fix.Another show-stealer is the island boasting the freshest catch of the day. Situated in the center of the whole area is a stark display of seafood – delicious-looking crabs, succulent mussels, plump shrimps, small clams and luscious oysters. The bounty of the sea brought to our tables. Amazing! Have your selection of seafood prepared the way you like it, sautéed in butter or covered in cheese.Their pasta station is another favorite of mine. Customize it to your desire and the chef attendant will deliver. I had their pesto paired with Al dente pasta, perfectly cooked chicken, an indulging yet simple dish. Could not get enough!And I just had to request some brick-oven pizza to be served to our table. Topped it with slices of chorizo instead of the usual pepperoni to stick to the theme. Great bite to it and a nice, smoky flavor from the brick oven. Bellissima!The whole other continental selection of the Market Cafe is not a chore to navigate at all. Going around the area would lead you to discoveries in the appropriately labeled stations representing cuisines of the world. They have a quality spread of Asian, Chinese, Filipino, Indian, Italian and even Korean dishes. It’s definitely like going on an international food trip.I should already be full up to the brim after several trips to and from the buffet area but there is always room for dessert. Especially the special addition to making the Spanish culinary experience come full circle. Complete with a crepe station, ice cream station and a halo-halo station, it’s a whole tour on its own. The featured Spanish desserts were a sight for sore eyes; Tortada di Ricotta, which is a cake made or ricotta cheese – almost sinful, and the creamy and indulgent Crema Catalan. I also hit up the ice cream bar and assembled my own ice cream bowl – strawberry and chocolate ice cream topped with fresh strawberries and chocolate bark. Sometimes I surprise (and entertain) myself with my own creativity.And what better way to conclude such a notable feast but with long conversations about anything and everything over many more glasses of Sangria Lolea. It genuinely was an exceptional time, as everybody on the table may agree and fondly look back at.Catch the Flavors of Spain at the Market Cafe at the New World Manila Bay Hotel up until the end of August for lunch on Sundays for P2,500, dinner rates for Monday to Thursday at P2,200, and P2,500 for Friday to Sunday, all inclusive of free-flow beverages. alwayshungry.ph
