High Street Café: A Sumptuous Family Lunch For Miguel’s Birthday

February 25, 2023

Sharing our unforgettable experience at High Street Cafe in Shangri-La The Fort.

We celebrated Miguel’s 5th birthday at Shangri-La The Fort’s High Street Café. I must say that the restaurant is quite impressive, with several international food stations that one may choose from. All in all, we had a superb dining experience at High Street Café.

High Street Café: A Sumptuous Family Lunch For Miguel’s Birthday


    High Street Café’s ambiance


    High Street Café is very spacious, with high ceilings and large windows that feature a spectacular view of BGC. The interiors are also well-lit, perfect for happy celebrations or any other family gatherings. High Street Café features a food hall concept, with well-designed food stations to make diners feel like they were traveling from one exotic destination to the next.

    I also like that High Street Café didn’t feel congested. In fact, Miguel and Rafa were able to run around without bumping anybody or toppling anything.

    The food at High Street Café


    The highlight of any dining experience is, of course, the food. At High Street Café, the food is outstanding as one would expect. The restaurant is composed of several food stations featuring Western, Pan-Asian, Chinese, Japanese, Mediterranean and rotisserie dishes, seafood, a salad bar, and a dessert station.

    I like to begin my meal with a slice (or two) of either steak or roast beef from the carving station. It was roast beef that was available at High Street Café so I had that with black pepper sauce. The meat was medium and was very tender. I usually pair it with salad topped with cold cuts and cheese.

    I also helped myself to a few pieces of grilled river shrimp and I was happily surprised by how good it was. The shrimps were meaty and tasted sweet; the smoky aroma infused it with an even more exquisite flavor.

    After finishing my initial plate, I helped myself to another serving of salad and cheeses, more grilled shrimp, mussels, beef brisket (very tender), and then dessert. What struck me with the dessert station is the nine ice cream flavors that diners can choose from. There are classic flavors, sugar-free variants, and even unique flavors like burnt rice (literally tasted like burnt rice that was milky and creamy).

    It might seem that I only consumed a small amount of food but I was already stuffed at this point. It seems like my capacity for buffet food has significantly diminished with age.

    While we were enjoying adult food, Miguel and Rafa were happily helping themselves to an unlimited serving of sweets, ice cream, and slices of cake. We just let them be, anyway, it’s not every day that we get to eat in such a wonderful restaurant.

    Since it was also Miguel’s 5th birthday, he received a whole cake (and a birthday song from the servers)

    The Price


    As with any other hotel buffet restaurant, the price at High Street Café is not for the budget-conscious. The lunch buffet is Php1,950 on weekdays (PHP2,300 on weekends). However, since my sister-in-law is an employee at Shangri-La The Fort, we were able to enjoy a 50% discount. In terms of payment, credit card and cash are accepted.

    Epilogue


    We definitely enjoyed eating at Shangri-La The Fort’s High Street Café. The food is excellent and the interiors of the restaurant look classy yet homey.
