The in-house restaurant of Canvass Boutique Hotel here in
Puerto Princesa, is introducing a new flavors, an experience to look for thru
the Mexican foods that they offer since February of this year, the revamp of
their menu is to cater for foreign market and to have a fresh start for 2019.
“The basic connotation of hotel food is fancy, really
elegant, slight formal, so we decided to be very casual, very fun, it’s like an
experience that’s why we decided on doing Mexican so that we can cater to the
foreign market as well as introduce new cuisines here in Puerto Princesa.” Chef
Mikel Zaguirre said.
During its food tasting event, Painted Table present a
modern twist of Mexican flavors, their versions of tortilla speak fun due to
its texture of colors, they called it rainbow flour tortillas and its home made
by their own experts in culinary.

“We make sure that the items are very classical by
nature, the twist or the modern presentations is different, we use what is
available here in Puerto Princesa, we use whatever is growing here, the herbs,
we made use of the local proteins like the seafoods that is readily available
here, so its like modern take on classical renditions.” Zaguiree added

Among they offer to us in this events are Kimchi De Pulpo
Ceviche, it is savory with tender pickled octopus mixed with a lot of herb and
spices, this is a thumbs up for taste buds soothers. Their version of Mexican
Corn Chowder is another winner, it is flavorful with smoked bacon chunks and mozzarella
