Whether it’s the start of a long weekend (like this one) or a regular weekend, getting through the week and onto Friday is cause for celebration. And what better way to kick off the weekend than by feasting on all you can eat delicious mains, desserts, pasta, ribs, cheese, and more?

Richmonde Cafe, the all-day dining restaurant of Richmonde Hotel Ortigas, joins the “Thank God, it’s Friday!” celebration by offering a convenient and relaxing venue where you can kick-off the weekend with friends and colleagues over a sumptuous buffet, wine, and drinks, right in the heart of Ortigas Center’s business district.

The Feast on Friday Dinner Buffet at Richmonde Hotel Ortigas, served from 6PM to 9PM at Richmonde Cafe, is a must-try at only P750 net per person. Indulge in a mouthwatering array of international dishes, action stations, and refreshing drinks. Have your fill of soup and appetizers, carving, main course dishes, and desserts, which now come with bottomless iced tea and select juices, and even a 50% discount on wine bottle orders (you have to try their Moscato).

Their mains are a mix of international dishes (eight during the Friday dinner buffet, 10 during lunch from 1130AM to 2PM, which includes dimsum—that’s also part of breakfast from 6AM to 10AM—as well as grilled items).

I like Richmonde Cafe’s cozy and inviting space, and their first-rate service. The waiters are attentive to your needs, immediately refilling your water or wine glass, and always quick to ask if there’s anything else they can help you with. Sometimes, all you need is really great service to warm up to a restaurant and know it’s a good place to keep coming back to, don’t you think so?

If you’re planning an intimate birthday dinner, they have a sweet deal for celebrants: For a minimum of four diners paying the regular rate, the birthday celebrant eats for free! She will even get a special cake.

But, here’s a BIG TREAT for all my readers: You get an exclusive promo code—TRxRHO, valid until June 24, 2016. This entitles you to 25% off on regular Feast on Friday dinner buffet rates for a minimum of four persons. Just Inform Richmonde Cafe upon reservation (via phone or their website) or as walk-in guests that you read my article, and you can give the staff the promo code.

Think 9PM is too early to end the night? I totally agree, but don’t worry, Richmonde Hotel’s The Exchange bar is just a few steps away, also on the second floor. Here you can enjoy a drink or two away from the bagets who are in all the other bars in the metro. You have to try their Mojito!
