Makati Shangri-la Hotel Mooncakes!

The Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival is almost upon us (the exact date this year is Sept. 27, 2015) and you know what that means… Mooncakes! This time I went and checked out the much-lauded Makati Shangri-la Hotel Mooncakes.

Makati Shangrila Hotel MooncakeSince I belong to a Chinese family, it’s inevitable that we have a lot of mooncakes around this time of year. I’ve tried a lot of locally made mooncakes as well as imported ones from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore.

Anyhow I dropped by Makati Shangri-la Hotel a couple of weeks ago to check out their mooncakes. They’re perfect as gifts because they’re packaged so nicely!

The way the sweet filling and the salted egg combine is the best part of the mooncake for me! The verdict? Yummy — not too sweet and definitely unique!
