City of Dreams Manila ushers in the Mid-Autumn Festival on September 10 with an auspicious a la carte menu at Crystal Dragon, the integrated resort’s award-winning restaurant known for its premium Cantonese and regional Chinese specialties.
Exclusively available from September 5 to 10, the menu consists of: Crispy Dried Scallop with Crab Meat and Snow Egg Yolk; Double-boiled Herbal Chicken Soup, Sea Cucumber, Black Garlic and Cordyceps Flower; Roasted Duck Meat with Grand Marnier Herb Reduction; Golden Crispy Crab Claw Coated with Potato Noodles ; Crispy Wasabi Prawns with Toasted Sesame and Slow Roasted Almond Nuts. As eating mooncakes, the symbol of the holiday signifying togetherness and harmony and is a not-to-be-missed tradition, Crystal Dragon offers the quintessential pastry as part of a dessert trio: Homemade Coconut Pandan Mooncake, Crispy Avocado Kataifi Roll with Fragrant Mango, and Pomelo with Sago Pearls for dessert.
The celebration of Mid-Autumn Festival usually falls on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and as the second grandest holiday occasion in China and other parts of Asia following Chinese New Year, it is customary for families to gather and celebrate the festival over auspicious food including mooncake, duck, crab, and pomelo, among others.
