Xian Tian Di

            My Mom celebrated her 83rd birthday this week and at the same time my parents celebrated their 51st Wedding Anniversary last October 28, 2013.
            I can’t think of a gift so I took my whole family to XinTian Di located at the 3rd floor of Crowne Plaza in Ortigas Center.
            For starters, I ordered Hakao which is really to die for. The shrimps were fresh. The kids ordered Chicken Corn Soup while my other nephew and I ordered Hot and Sour Soup and my partner ordered the Congee. We had Steamed Mantao and Asado Siopao, the Divine Platter (which consists of cold cuts and barbecued pork, fried suckling pig, etc.) on the side. For the main course, I ordered what they like the most Sweet and Sour Pork, Beef with Broccoli, Steamed Fish with Garlic. Then, I ordered what I like Beef Hofan, Kum Pao Chicken and Assorted Vegetables with Tofu.
            For drinks, it was cheaper to order Carafes of Iced tea. For every 3 Carafes of Iced Tea one will get a free tea pot. We had 5 Carafes so got a free tea pot.
            For dessert they ordered Buchi and Mango Puddings. The total bill was P13, 501.00.  It was quite expensive but it was worth it. The food was really good.
