Looking for sulit but presentable food delivery for get togethers, or even just for a lazy weekend in? Check out these Buy 1 Take 1 food items from Novotel!
Last week, we tried the Buy 1 Take 1 offers of Novotel Manila Araneta City. We got their Classic Burger, Salmon Teriyaki Bowl, Novotel’s Classic Chicken, Korean Garlic Cream Cheese Bread, and a pint of Gelato.
My Recommendations
This “Take Me Out” promo is known for the burgers! If you like burgers, I highly recommend trying their burgers.
We tried the Novotel Classic burger, which has 2 thick, juicy beef patties! This is their only burger that has double patties. The other burgers only have 1 patty (plus extra toppings). I think this is the best value order – P420 for 2 x double patty burgers with cheese! We will definitely be ordering this again, it’s sooooo worth it! I want to order this again for like a Netflix day – for days when I don’t feel like doing anything but cocoon in front of the TV.
Check out how juicy it is! This is maybe an hour later after it was prepared (counting Lalamove delivery time + waiting time because it arrived earlier than our lunch time of 12nn). I reheated it slightly in the microwave (don’t overcook), just doing 15 seconds each time until the burger was just warmed through.
As usual, I prefer my burger with just a little more salt (I found this burger to be light on the salt), but it’s easy for me to sprinkle more salt than to have the burger arrive too salty. Remember, it’s easy to add more salt, but you can’t remove excess salt.
I also really liked the fries that came with the burger. They needed to be crisped up in the air fryer but they were delicious! They were flavored with some cheese powder. I also liked the catsup – it’s not like any commercial catsup I’m familiar with, and I suspect that Novotel makes their own catsup. Novotel makes a lot of things themselves (even growing their own vegetables), so there’s a good probability this catsup was “home-made”.
Everyone’s favorite though, was the Garlic Cheese Bread! I reheated this in the air fryer (you can also use an oven toaster). Novotel’s version is buttery, tangy, creamy, garlicky, and sweet. Order more than you think you should because you will feel sad when you’ve finished them all and you don’t have any more 😀
For dessert, we had a pint of their Indulge Gelato (Have Yourself a Merry Panettone flavor, you can also try their other flavors). It came with 2 waffle cups, sprinkles and crumble topping. I know Novotel makes their gelato/ ice cream in-house, so they use real ingredients 🙂 You can be sure of the quality of the gelato. This flavor had a sweet vanilla base swirled with cooked apples and syrup (similar to apple pie filling). It tasted very Christmassy 🙂
Our food arrived in boxes like this so they are packed well to withstand delivery.
