La vita Italia does not stop as Marco Polo Ortigas Manila’s restaurants and bars continue to celebrate the country with special treats that will leave a mark this September.

Guests staying in the hotel are in for a flavorful delight, as guest chef Pasqualino Barbasso’s special gourmet pizzas are available exclusively from 10:30 a.m. to 11 p.m. Variants include Piemontese (beef, tuna, mozzarella, capers, anchovies), Mediterranea (eggplant, sun-dried tomato, mozzarella, basil powder), Arrotolata (artichokes, parma ham, cherry tomatoes, arugula leaves) and Grand Fume (smoked salmon, burrata, arugula leaves, cherry tomatoes).

Premium Italian confections are also available for a post-meal dessert, an afternoon break, or just-because. Café Pronto is serving panforte and tiramisu to keep the day sweeter until 18 September. A tiramisu smoothie is also available until the end of September for those who can’t get enough.

Bringing refreshing drinks inspired by the Italian countryside is Connect Lounge with Verde Chiaro Sour and Dolce Cassis, until 15 September. Vu’s Sky Bar and Lounge also brings the feel of chic Italian nights with classic cocktails, such as a special house-blend Limoncello and barrel-aged Negroni. Both drinks can be enjoyed with the second round on the house for the whole month of September at Vu’s Sky Bar and Lounge.
