Discovery Primea celebrates World Paella Day in honor of the iconic rice-based dish, a delicious representation of Spanish culture and cuisine
Known for its extensive menu of flavorful Mediterranean fare, Restaurant Tapenade at Discovery Primea celebrates Spanish culture and traditions with a 4-day feast beginning on September 20, showcasing the noteworthy flavors of this iconic specialty dish.
Diners are invited to partake of the festivity starting on World Paella Day, Thursday, September 20. Guests may upgrade their Salad Room experience for an additional PHP300++ to add unlimited servings of paella to the hearty selection of local and imported produce, charcuterie, cheeses, and fresh seafood.
The paella’s popularity stems from its abundance and winning combination of toasted rice, filling meats, and flavorful seafood, making it an ideal showpiece for meals and gatherings with family and friends. Discovery Primea’s Executive Chef Luis Chikiamco presents his own variations of this classic festive rice dish, available only during the 4-day feast. The spread features Paella al Chilindrón made with chicken and lamb; Paella de Champiñones made with shiitake, portobello, and button mushrooms; and Paella con Jamón, a festive combination of majestic ham and quezo de bola that oozes of nostalgia. Each paella is prepared carefully, cooked over an open flame, and served on the piping hot pan for guests to enjoy.
