New chef and New culinary offerings

Chef Massi hails from Castellanza, Varese, Italy, and grew up in a traditional Italian family way of preparing food and festively dining together. He has had a global culinary career — Europe, Africa, India and Southeast Asia, all of which led him to the Philippines. “I’m very happy to start with this hotel in this part of the city. Quezon City will explode in the next years or so, I would have marked up my name here,” he expressed.

Applying his strong culinary background, chef Massi will introduce techniques that will reinforce the global F&B team of Novotel Manila Araneta City in order to provide better quality palatable dishes and unique dining experience.Since last month, chef Massi has already introduced several specialties in every food outlet of Novotel Manila.
