Magical and special can best describe what Christmas is all about to people from all over the world. Celebrations, parties, and reunions bring families and friends together, feasting on delicious and comforting food.
One such cuisine that ties people together is that of Spain’s—it’s rich, soulful, and familiar to us Filipinos.
The Spanish concepts of The Bistro Group are happy to share their “Holiday Especiales” for a more festive Christmas dining and drinking:
At Las Flores & Rambla, the Holiday specials are Lamb Shank with mashed potatoes and Huevos Rotos (gulas, shrimp, broken eggs, potatoes, garlic oil).
Meanwhile, BCN and Tomatito offer Roast Beef with mashed potatoes and gravy and Baked Lapu Lapu with Bilbaina sauce and patatas panaderas while Rumba is proud to serve their Mussels in Marinara with fries and Herb Roasted Porchetta.
These Cócteles de Navidad (Holiday Cocktails) are perfect accompaniment to a Spanish meal: Eggsy Bitsy (Sherry wine, Bailey’s, Vanilla, Cream, Cinnamon, Egg White); Santa’s Spritz Aperol (Watermelon, Mixed Berries Compote, Cava) and Citrus Lantern Gin (Limoncello, Passionfruit, Citrus, Egg White).
Guests can also bring home a taste of Spain by ordering their Charcuterie To-Go, a selection of quesos and embutidos that comes with pan con tomate, grapes, walnuts, and mango jam.
