Not a Miami Heat fan nor a Dallas Mavericks fan (I’m for Lakers btw. haha!), but this morning was historical for the Mavs. It was the morning they ate Heat for victory. And so did I, in a similar way. Indeed, this morning (a week ago) was an intense one not only because of NBA Finals but also because of my most awaited breakfast buffet with my sister in Edsa Shangrila’s Heat.

My sister Reine and I will never go wrong when it comes to breakfast. For us, breakfast food is simply the best! 🙂 That’s why it was such an excitement for us to have breakfast in our favorite buffet restaurant, Heat. 

Bread heaven! It was tempting for me to try all kinds of bread – croissant, muffin, bagel, etc. – but I didn’t want to because my stomach might not have enough space for other dishes.

One of the few breads I tried and loved, Kesong Puti Pandesal! This Filipino bread is always a winner even though you put it beside other french breads and the like. Eating hot pandesal is one of the Filipinos’ way to start the morning. 

The egg corner where we had our eggs cooked. In buffets, I always ask the chef to make me an omelet mixed with tomatoes, mushrooms and lots of cheese! 

If you take a closer picture of this, you’ll see the world’s favorite breakfast dish….

BACON! Beside it is their Hash Browns with Corned Beef inside. 

Instead of steak on the steak corner, they replaced it with Meatloaf for breakfast. 

I was happy to see the Japanese station awake in the morning with sushi and sashimi all over. Although one thing was missing, fresh Salmon Sashimi 🙁

The grilling station was unforgettable because of their superb Beef Tapa! 

Filipinos create the best breakfast meal in the world! Beef tapa, sunny side up egg plus garlic rice made my morning. Heat’s Tapsilog won my heart. The way they marinated the tapa was strong and oh-so tasty that it left a mark on my taste buds. No need for vinegar or any condiments to add flavor to the meat. 

The juice bar served two kinds of morning refreshers:

1) Come Clean, which is a mix of strawberries and watermelon. It was my favorite drink for the morning.

2) Tantalizing Trio, what they call this drink. A blend of orange and cranberries. Definitely a healthy morning beverage. It was like drinking multivitamins in a glass.

For those who didn’t want the complicated blends, they can choose to get from the other juice station where there were orange juice, mango juice, apple juice, etc.

The dessert station would always make me smile. 🙂

Wasn’t able to get from the noodles station anymore. My stomach couldn’t load up anymore. I had enough, I guess. 🙂

Such a classy ambiance. In short, sosyal! :))

Reine’s plate.

Dad’s Chinese plate.

I remembered Pierre’s The Fruit Garden Jam when I saw these cute little jams on our table. 

Good Morning everyone! 🙂 

So, what’s for breakfast? 

Cheers,
