Creating Memories @ The Aristocrat Wedding Showcase

I can still remember our wedding reception from two years ago. Aside from our union and the marriage ceremony itself, it was the food of the reception which made a big impact to our guests, they were satisfied and praised the good food served them. It all came back when we attended the “Wedding Showcase” hosted by Aristocrat Restaurant a few weeks ago at their Roxas Boulevard branch.

An iconic Filipino restaurant in the Philippines, The Aristocrat is well known for the outstanding Filipino dishes they serve, most specially the Boneless Chicken Barbecue.

Acknowledging the changes in time and market preference, Aristocrat similarly levels-up the ante of food service in the events hosting industry. The Wedding Showcase highlighted the brand’s efforts in positioning itself as the preferred wedding reception venue for those who wants to make their occasion memorable while at the same, having good food.

The “Wedding Showcase” exhibited different wedding reception themes and setup from the quaint and simple ones up to the colorful and elaborate arrangements.

Food Tasting

During the launch, just like in a wedding reception, of course, we had food care of The Aristocrat Restaurant.

We were able to have a taste of their Pork Barbecue, Embotido, Callos, Lengua in brown sauce, and Fresh Lumpia Ubod, among others. It was a nostalgic experience from a brand that started since 1936.

The Aristocrat Bakeshop

In addition, I also saw a setup of The Aristocrat Bakeshop, something I was unfamiliar with as I didn’t know beforehand that they have a separate bakeshop group. I loved their buko pandan while the Torta delos Reyes cake is something I am looking forward to try.

Foodie Feature: Goldilocks’ Duo Marble Cake

Me and my wife just had our birthdays the past two months, July and August, respectively. And we had a gamut of cakes at home during that time; not that we are complaining. 😛

I always think of children when I think about cakes. You can see the delight in their eyes when they see cakes, specially the colorful ones from Goldilocks. Be it their own birthday cake, or their friends’, they have the same level of glee and excitement.

So imagine if you double the delight with a duo cake such as the Goldilocks Duo Marble Cake.

The Duo Marble Layer cake is a delightful combination of vanilla and choco chiffon cake iced with vanilla buttercream, lined and decorated with streaks of chocolate frosting.

Its creaminess, sweetness, and boldness in flavor will surely bring double delight to your kiddies!
