Vikings Luxury Buffet in Madrid Fusion Manila 2017

Not often will you be given the chance to serve world’s best chefs, Vikings Luxury Buffet has been given the honor of doing so for three consecutive years. The Madrid Fusion Manila is a premier event for the country’s food community. Chefs behind Michelin star and World’s 50 best restaurants visit Manila for a three day conference and trade expo. From its first run back in 2015, Vikings Luxury Buffet has been a significant part of this grand culinary event.

The three-day gastronomic event kicked off with a Welcome Night at SM Mall of Asia by the Bay last April 6, 2017. The night was graced by the culinary delegates including Gert de Mangeleer (Hertog Jan), Pedro Subijana (Akelare), Rodrigo de la Calle (El Invernadero), and Paco Perez (Miramar).

Vikings Luxury Buffet was one of the chosen few restaurants from the country to serve their very own fusion dishes from traditional Filipino delicacies.

Vikings served three beautifully concocted masterpieces for this special night:

Crispy Salted Egg Longganisa

This scene stealing dish easily became a crowd favourite with its savory salted egg longganisa, enriched with distinct Filipino spices, and wrapped in succulent pork skin, baked to a perfect crisp

Vigan Emapanada

The modern twist on this beloved Vigan classic is a dish that is hard to miss, with the medley of greens, quail egg, and our very own special sausage packed into one hearty meal.

Tres Marias Butchi

An array of Filipino dessert favourites whipped up into one enchanting dish, Vikings’ Tres Marias Butchi. Butchi coated with Almonds, stuffed with Guimaras Mango, Suman Pinipig and Ube Halaya served with Macapuno Ice Cream and dusted with Salted Egg, with this dish, you certainly can have it all.

Indeed, in serving the best, Vikings Luxury Buffet has not held back in giving their best, nothing less from the country’s largest buffet restaurant.
