Tour of the Pantry
The likes of House Smoked Salmon Flat Bread Pizza, Adobo of Soya & Vinegar Braised Pork Belly, Piri Piri Rotisserie Chicken, BBQ Lechon Cubano Sandwich and Hot Spanish Churos with Rich Silky Chocolate Sauce infused the 280-seater restaurant with an assortment of inviting aromas.
With emphasis on the regional tastes of Mediterranean, Spanish, Filipino and Asian cuisines, The Pantry is a delicious melting pot of flavors that are all but ordinary.
Much like every authentic Filipino celebration, situated at the center of The Pantry is a live lechon pit and carving station. The Pantry is home to nine global food stations – a seafood station, brick oven Italian pizza, a Chinese bao ba, Indian tandoor oven, beverage studio and a sinfully divine dessert section. A first of its kind, The Pantry also features the Grab & Go, a takeaway counter for people on-the-go.
The Pantry is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
