We went to explore Food Exchange Manila as we are invited by our cousin to celebrate his birthday here at Novotel Manila in Quezon City.

Food Exchange Manila is the buffet restaurant of Novotel Manila, which offers a wide array of international dishes that includes American, Indian, Italian, and many more. The place as you enter is very spacious and clean.

First in the buffet area is the Indian section:

FINAL VERDICT:

I was looking for some usual dishes we see at other buffets like Teppanyaki, tempura and dim sum but didn’t find any. As for the carving station, the roasted beef was tough to chew. Though I have to say their paella and pasta were delicious. Don’t forget to leave room for their dessert as they have a wide selection of it which includes ice cream, sherbet, puto bumbong, Japanese pancakes and churros. Overall, it was still a satisfying experience here at Novotel Manila.

Also, the Lunch buffet price on Sunday is Php 1,588 per person.
