Our reason for celebrating-- my eldest daughter received the Sacrament of Confirmation at St. James the Great Parish Church in
Ayala Alabang, which was officiated by Bishop Jesse E. Mercado, D.D.
My wife Maita and I chose Phoenix Court, the Chinese restaurant situated on the second floor of Bellevue because we knew it would not disappoint. It offers two types of buffet-- either an all-course or dimsum buffet.
The all-course buffet includes selections of soup, dimsum, entrees, noodles rice and desserts. While dimsum buffet comes only with rice, noodles and desserts.
In the all-course buffet, one can choose any dish in the specially prepared menu. All dishes are cooked fresh per order. My guests specifically like the sweet and sour lapu-lapu, garlic shrimps, beef tenderloin with XO and black pepper sauce. And I should mention the shrimp dumplings that were big and filling.
Dessert selection includes mango sago and sesame balls-- which turned out to be a surprise, we ordered at least 20 balls for our table. The serving portions at Phoenix Court are generous, so one should take it easy when ordering. It has a no left over policy.
Given its rave-worthy dishes, the luxurious setting and great service-- Phoenix Court makes it to my list of value-for-money venues for family celebrations.
