Dusit Thani Manila’s The Pantry known for its unique dining concept and excellent service recently celebrated their first anniversary with an all out food extravaganza. Dusit Thani’s GM Bruno Cristol and his team welcomed esteemed guests such as Thai Ambassador Thanatip Upatising and his wife Madame Khun Monthip Upatising, Cris Albert, Rocio and Antonio Resano, Ruffa Gutierrez and her daughters Venice and Lorin Bektas to the celebration that featured an impressive selection of Filipino, Italian, Indian and Pan-Asian cuisines. Foodies trooped to the carving station where tomahawk steaks were served while others headed straight to the Lechon Pit where suckling pigs were slowly roasted and carved.
One of the highlights of the event was the performance of chanteuse Sitti Navarro who serenaded the guests with a medley of her bossa nova hits.
