Trip to Manila [Dinner at VIKINGS Restaurant]

in #travelfeed6 years ago (edited)

Hello Steemitverse!
How are you doing today?

First, I would like to apologize for making you hungry in my previous blog, and sorry not sorry if I’m gonna make it again. Lol!

From the Southern part of Mall of Asia, Seaside Boulevard where you can find GEN Korean Bbq House, let us move on to the North for a luxurious dinner buffet at Vikings Restaurant.

Vikings is an International luxury buffet restautant that caters different cuisine from various countries, and the largest buffet restaurant in the Philippines with class and style, created with elegant structure design.

It is my favorite buffet restaurant since 2011, where they got the very first branch at Mall of Asia, Seaside Boulevard which become their flagship store, while they have already stablished 11 branches around the country today.

So let us take a look in this short video clip (1:55 minutes) that I created for a tour around the resto and the uncountable food in each station in which I got all the mouthwatering dishes below. 😋😋
Enjoy!

As you can see in the clip, the weather was such unpredictable from the clear sky in the mid afternoon to the rainy early evening.
We traveled from our hotel accommodation to Vikings approximately 10 minutes due to traffic, which usually just take 5 minutes in normal road condition. By the way, our means of transportation was Grab, I know you’re all familiar with that, hopefully. 😅
Coz’ I dont wan’t to take it too long to present these delectable cuisine. 😋😋

Vikings is buffet, so its an eat all you can-get what you want kind of thing all by yourself.

Let’s start with my favorite platter:

Honestly guys, I don’t exactly remember all the names of these dainty food but I usually get this things first on my plate. I have the fresh vegetable salad, herb cream cheese puff, spicy chicken shot, salmon mousse, cheddar and mozarella cheese, ham and creamy green apple salad.

Oh this platter is a tough one 😅 well I guess, it's a slice of salmon with herb and butter, a piece of beef in a curry, food for the gods and I can’t recall the small servings on the back. Haha!

I also grabbed some Asian variety, steamed soy chicken, maki and dumpling.

And got the baked oysters, sliced grilled squid, pork babeque and atchara.

Dumplings, chops of lechon pork belly, tempura and pizza.

... I’m full! 😋😋😋

Don’t worry guys I did not eat all these food, I’m with my two favorite travel buddies. Haha!

The foods that I showed your are just half of it, I think... coz’ its getting awkward taking photos and recording video while everyone are busy grabbing and eating their sumptous meal.
It has plenty of different cuisine, hot pot, unlimited drinks of all kind and more!

But before imagining these heavenly meal, you must consider these things:
First, make a reservation a week before if you don’t want to wait in the line for hours as chance walk-in costumer.
Second, be on time as instructed in your confirmed reservation. The earlier the better because most of the time they will let you in, 30 minutes before the actual opening, it’s an edge for you to have more time to eat.
Third, don’t eat much carbo and don’t drink softdrinks so you don’t get full quickly. 😂

The lunch was usually from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM, while dinner time was 5:30 PM to 10:00 PM.
You have all the time to eat and chill.

The cost for these meal? Its only Php 1,969.80 (about 40 Usd) for 3 persons inclusive of tax.
Why so cheap? Because we are entitled to avail their 1 + 1 promo. Just simply bring one full paying adult plus one birthday celebrant for free! Since we are three, we just paid for two persons.
You can check the amazing rate and promos on their website. Just simple type the word vikings and Google will do the magic. 😉

And oh! They have complementary cake... for all birthday celebrants. Yeah someone is celebrating her birthday and thats me! Haha!

That is very delicious post, I can imagine how you feel once you are there, all the dishes are very well decorated, they are also a kind of art, as we say people eat with eyes too. The video shows such endless tables of buffet you can#s really make a proper decision as you want to taste everything. The photographs wonderful quality and thank you for such detailed explanations. 40 USD for three persons is quite cheap prize for buffet, I think nobody can't complain saying that he found nothing for his taste :)
