The Manila Hotel Café Ilang-Ilang offers halal-certified food for Takeout and Delivery
Tuesday, May 11, 2021
Muslims around the world celebrate the end of the fasting period of Ramadan with Eid al-Fitr, the Festival of Breaking the Fast this May 12, 2021. It is celebrated through prayer, gifts, and lavish feast. While the country is predominantly Catholic, Islam is the second largest religion in the country. No wonder, Filipinos have become fond of Halal foods.
Halal food is prepared following a set of Islamic dietary laws and regulations that determine what is permissible, lawful and clean. Any dish can be halal, as long as the meat used is religiously slaughtered and no pork or alcohol is involved.
The Manila Hotel’s Café Ilang Ilang has a Halal kitchen certified by the Muslim Mindanao Halal Certification Board. This kitchen dedicated to Halal food preparation serves Indian and Middle Eastern-inspired halal dishes will whet your appetite and pay homage to its traditional roots.
Designed for proper breaking of the fast, The Manila Hotel’s Ramadan Special Halal Home Buffet set comes with dried dates and juice, chickpeas hummus, Fatoush mixed salad, roti and naan bread, vegetable biryani, tandoori chicken, lamb rogan josh, vegetable samosa, and baklava. The set is just one of the three choices for the Halal Certified Home Buffet.
“Our Lamb Rogan Josh is a must-try. It’s imported from Australia and it has the spices and sharpness that will surely be enjoyed by everyone. We can also customize the food according to our customer’s request. Say you don’t like chili, we can make it milder. We can tweak a dish to please your palate while still being true to its authentic taste,” says Chef Kiran Singh, the hotel’s Halal trained chef.
Celebrate Eid Al Fitr by ordering any of The Manila Hotel’s Halal Home Buffet sets or dishes, available for Takeout and delivery. Visit https://www.manila-hotel.com.ph/takeout/ for the full menu; or call 8527-0011 or 0998-9501912.
Since this pandemic started (I know that you are all getting tired of this intro) many things have changed and we need to do our part to minimize the spread of the virus. One of the things that we must do is wearing face masks, masks and faceshield.
Facemask and shield combo causes heat, friction and a moist environment when combined with your breathing, sweating, or talking; unfortunately, it is a major cause of breakouts and now we commonly know as "maskne"
Few Tips to reduce "Maskne"
- Minimize the use of make up
- Washing your mask (A MUST)
- Rest your face - remove mask every 4 hours (make sure that you are on a safe place)
- Stay away from harsh skin care products and use skin care that has gentle ingredients.
Having that said, I am in the search of finding a great product that is affordable and effective. I stumbled on the Luxe Organix Rosewater Soothing Gel, and since I love their Rosewater Glow Mist I've decided to give this a try. I also think that this is quite unique because most of the soothing gel in the market is Aloe Vera. I got this for Php 259 and it holds 300mL of product.

Overall Thoughts:
After 2 months of religiously using Luxe Organix Rosewater Soothing Gel, I can definitely say that it works wonders to my skin. This soothing gel made my face brighter and I did not experience and breakouts upon using it (however if you have sensitive skin, I highly suggest to do a skin test). This product helped to remove the dark spots caused by maskne .
I use Luxe Organix Rosewater Soothing Gel on my nighttime skin care routine and if I am feeling extra, I also use this product on my morning skincaare. After application especially if you put a generous amount, I have this sticky feeling and eventually gone after couple of minutes. Also, unlike other skincare product, this soothing gel has a strong floral smell however since I love the smell of rosewater, I don't mind it. If you are sensitive to the smell of skincare products, take this as a consideration. This product also comes with a spatula which a huge game changer. Overall I love and highly recommend this product.
