MANILA, Philippines, 01 October 2025 – Marco Polo Ortigas Manila welcomes October with a rich tapestry of dining experiences that blend tradition, celebration, and sophistication. From the prized flavors of Cantonese cuisine to the spirited revelry of Oktoberfest and the warmth of family gatherings, the hotel’s award-winning restaurants and lounges invite guests to discover golden flavors and festive moments all month long.
At Lung Hin, the Golden Roasted Goose takes the spotlight. Revered in Cantonese culinary heritage, this dish is meticulously roasted until the skin reaches a crisp golden finish while the meat remains tender and flavorful. Available daily for lunch and dinner, it may be enjoyed as a whole, half, or quarter portion, as well as in a comforting goose rice noodle soup. A curated wine list featuring selections from Argentina, Spain, and Australia completes this indulgent experience.
The spirit of Bavaria comes alive at Cucina with an Oktoberfest buffet from 2-4 October. Guests can savor a spread of authentic German specialties, including Obatzda, Schnitzel, Pork Knuckle, Sauerbraten, and Black Forest Cake. Live polka performances, a pretzel and sausage cart, free-flowing San Miguel and Paulaner beers, and a themed photo booth ensure that every evening is filled with festive cheer.
For a more relaxed interpretation, Connect Lounge presents Bavarian Beer and Bar Bites throughout October. This hearty platter of brat sliders, sausages, and sauerkraut pairs perfectly with premium Paulaner beers and is designed for sharing.
High above the city, Vu’s Sky Bar and Lounge hosts Prost in the Sky from October 2 to 4. The celebration features unlimited local draft beer, German brews, hearty Bavarian classics, and live music. Oktoberfest games such as beer-drinking challenges and pretzel toss add a playful touch to evenings under the Manila skyline.
Completing the culinary journey is Café Pronto with its Sunshine Platter, a weekend spread of mini sandwiches, cookies, pastries, coffee, and juice perfect for small groups and families. Exclusive Pasig City offers, including breakfast specials and afternoon bundles, make every visit to the café an indulgence worth savoring.
