MARRIOTT CAFE Sunday Brunch Buffet Crossover with CRU STEAKHOUSE!

I was pleasantly surprised that Marriot Cafe offered a Sunday Brunch Buffet with a cross-over to Cru – one of the best Steakhouses in Manila.

It only costs P2,000 per head which is easily the cost of ordering one steak at Cru. You don’t only get unlimited steaks and foie gras, you’ll also get a wide array of other Meat and Fresh Seafood options, and different Asian Cuisines plus end your meal with the Chocolate Dessert Room. 

Here are tips on how to conquer the MARRIOTT CAFE Sunday Brunch Buffet:

• MARRIOTT CAFE Sunday Brunch Buffet Crossover with CRU STEAKHOUSE!

The Sunday Breakfast Buffet is usually fully booked so better reserve the corner tables to have a little bit of privacy.

You can reserve one of the two Private Dining Rooms for P15,000 consumable for maximum of 10 persons.

Another tip would be to reserve and eat in Cru instead of the Marriot Cafe area which has a better fine dining ambiance.

APPETIZERS/ STARTERS

You can start with different options of ham and cured meats,

freshly baked breads,

limited cheese options,

fresh fruits, and

different lumpia roll options, and 

fresh salad options.

For kids, they get entertained by the clown with different balloon and magic tricks.

FRESH SEAFOOD STATION

One of the most popular sections is the fresh seafood section with different crabs, 

shrimps, and

and big clams 

that can be cooked for you as you order.

MEAT CARVING STATIONS

You have your standard meat stations with different sauces and siding options.

There’s roasted turkey,

Leg of Lamb, and

and US Rib Eye Steak.

LIVE COOKING STATIONS 
I like to start off with the soup option.

Japanese sushi and sashimi variety

Teppanyaki section

Yummy dimsum options

One of the best hakaw that we had  (that I must say a lot better than Passion).

Different noodle soup and duck options.

The Filipino section with Lechon as the center piece and

different barbecue grill options.

The pasta station is really good where they prepare their own pasta and a wide array of sauce and ingredients option.

CRU Steakhouse Crossover

As you cross over to Cru, you can have unlimited order of cocktails available that day prepared for you on the spot 🙂 

You can order rib eye steaks and other seafood options, and

unlimited foie gras!

This was the best part of the buffet for us 🙂

(Tip: Our steaks were cooked really well at the start of buffet and the quality degrades as more and more people go the the Cru section. Best to start early when the buffet opens at 11.30am)

Chocolate Room

To end the meal, they converted one of the private dining rooms into a chocolate room with different chocolate- themed desserts.

Love the chocolate crunch…

the different chocolate pralines option, and

the chocolate fondue options.

Marshmallow and chocolate are always a hit with the boys 🙂

After the chocolate, we end our meal with their home- made ice cream flavors 🙂

Overall, we love the Cru Steakhouse buffet, the fresh seafood option, the live cooking stations and the Chocolate Room desserts 🙂 It was really good value and one of the best buffet options in Manila in 2012 🙂
