The most memorable breakfast I had during my holy week vacation in Cebu was at UNO restaurant. UNO is located inside the Waterfront Mactan Hotel & Casino which is very near the Cebu domestic airport.

The buffet is open from 6:00-10:30AM.  I really wished I didn’t have a hard time waking up that day coz I could have used those precious minutes eating more food at the buffet.

The design of UNO restaurant is astounding!  They have this multi-colored small rectangles beneath the buffet tables.  It complements the wooden floors of the restaurant plus the overall feel of the place.  They have great service too (well except for one lady who obviously had a very bad morning hehehe!).

The breakfast buffet is included in the room rates but if you’re not checked in, the fee is at Php 684.75 net per person.

My favorite of all the food items offered in the restaurant is their… CHICKEN!  My golly!  Believe me when I say that it was perfect!  It was marinated & cooked perfectly.  I wonder how they did it!  I really just wished we had more time to spare because the chicken was too good… Even after a week, I can still feel my enthusiasm as I was eating the dish.

Another favorite of mine was the omelette.  Well, basically because it was cooked right on the spot.  I also love the chef at the cooking station.  They were so accommodating and even delivered the omelette to us.  There were a variety of omelettes to choose from — mushroom omelette, ham & cheese omelette and omelettes with a variety of ingredients to choose from.  Might as well request for a sunny side up or scrambled eggs if you want to.  They also have hard boiled eggs for consumption.

Just like most hotel buffets, they serve breads..

Other food items in the buffet are sausages, rice, bacon (another fav!), donuts (yes, they had them too!), noodles, vegetables, cereals, fruits, desserts, etc..

It was truly a great dining experience.  UNO restaurant is really an eye candy.  They serve mouth-watering dishes and service is great!  It’s cheap too at Php 684.75.  I took pictures of each dish & can be found in this Flickr album.

Dong Wu Hotel Taipei is located at the heart of Taipei that is a small and elegant hotel.  I enjoyed our stay there as it was clean, neat, quiet and has free wifi!!

We stayed there from September 18 to 21 and of course, free breakfast is included in our room rate.  Every morning, we made it a point to go down to the basement to eat the buffet breakfast.

Non-hotel guests can also eat breakfast for 198NT.

It is an eat-all-you-can buffet that serves the usual breakfast items that we see in Taiwan.  It’s just ordinary, nothing special but still, it makes our stomach full so we can be well and ready for our long day ahead 🙂

By the way, my favorite is their congee. This one I really, really love! Don’t forget to put the condiments in the congee especially the bread. It makes a lot of difference on the taste.

Before I forget to mention, the ambiance was really nice.  They had bookshelves full of books, magazines and newspapers for us to read.  They also have LCD television on display and cozy chairs for those who will be staying long, tinkering with their laptops.
