    Taboos and Superstitions of Chinese New Year

    House Cleaning

    All house cleaning must be done prior to the New Year. On New Year’s Eve, all brooms, brushes, dusters, dust pans and other cleaning equipment must be put away. If any cleaning utensils, especially brooms, are used during the holiday, it will bring bad luck because you will be sweeping out all the good fortune from your house.

    Holiday Greetings

    During this season, greet everyone with a “Kung Hei Fat Choi” which means “All the very best for a prosperous New Year.”

    Bringing in the New Year and Expelling the Old

    Shooting off firecrackers on New Year’s Eve is the Chinese way of sending out the old and welcoming in the New Year. Firecrackers and loud gongs are also used to scare away evil spirits who may disrupt one’s good fortune. On the stroke of midnight, every door in the house and even windows have to be open to allow the old year to go out.

    Wear Red

    Everyone buys new clothes to celebrate the New Year. Red clothing is preferred during this festive season since it is considered a bright, happy color and assures the wearer a sunny and bright future. Coincidentally, many retail shops have sales at this time.

    Lai See for Luck

    Children and unmarried friends, as well as close relative, all receive lai see or “lucky money” in red envelopes from friends and family for good fortune.

    Pay Up

    All debts have to be paid before the New Year. Nothing should be lent on New Year’s Day, as anyone who will do so will be lending all year.

    No to Broke

    The year will get off on a bad start if food is served or eaten from broken or chipped crockery, as this signifies eating into your own capital. Do not use knives or scissors on New Year’s Day Day as this may cut off good fortune.

  • Christmas Concert at The Pen Returns with National Artist For Music Maestro Ryan Cayabyab

    After a hiatus of two years, one of Metro Manila’s most enduring holiday traditions – The Peninsula Manila’s “Christmas Concert at The Pen” – is back! On December 4th, Sunday, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, The Lobby of The Peninsula Manila will once again resound with the joyous sounds of Christmas as it is transformed into a grand concert hall.

    The Lobby Angels

    The famed “Christmas Concert at The Pen” concert – now on its 37th season – has always been regarded as The Peninsula Manila’s Christmas gift to the community. And this year, the hotel has put together a memorable musical repertoire (one with many firsts) that is sure to get festive spirits rightly tuned for the days of celebration ahead.

    Wielding the baton and directing the much-loved musical extravanganza for the very first time in its long history is National Artist for Music Maestro Ryan Cayabyab.

    Ryan Cayabyab
    Maestro Ryan Cayabyab

    Maestro Ryan Cayabyab will be teaming up at the concert with the Manila Symphony Orchestra (MSO) which, coincidentally, was the first orchestra to play at the annual holiday concert when it debuted in 1983 with (future) National Artist for Music Lucio San Pedro conducting. Since then, “Christmas Concert at The Pen” has stayed true to its hallmark philosophy – the promotion of Philippine art and culture and a showcase of local talent where Filipino artists are accompanied by a Filipino orchestra.

    The 2022 “Christmas Concert at The Pen” artist’s line-up also stars soprano Jade Rubis Riccio and “The Voice Philippines” alumnus Poppert Bernadas.

    The featured choir this year is the critically-acclaimed French children’s choir – Les Petits Chanteurs a la Croix de Bois – whose performance is one of the highlights of the celebration of the 75th anniversary of Filipino-French diplomatic relations.

    Menchu Lauchengco Yulo

    Another first is the guest appearance of Menchu Lauchengco-Yulo, widely considered to be the “first lady” of Philippine musical theatre. She will be the host of this year’s concert.

    “Christmas Concert at The Pen” will open with the MSO accompanying Jade Rubis Riccio and Poppert Bernadas in “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” one of the Top 10 Christmas songs of all time that’s been described as “a celebration of the Christmas season, and of friends and families.”

    Jade Riccio

    Maestro Ryan Cayabyab says this year’s concert will be “a love song to music and musicians” after years of lockdown.

    “We all feel like it’s a new beginning,” adds Masahisa Oba, The Peninsula Manila General Manager.“There’s so much hope. The whole program is a celebration of music and our love for it. We are also very excited and honored to have Maestro Ryan Cayabyab at the helm along with a raft of very talented artists.”

    In closing, General Manager Masahisa Oba has one last bit of advice to all those who want to catch the concert: “Book and reserve your tables ahead of time or come early because seats are on a first-come basis!”

    2022 Christmas Concert at The Pen

    The 37th season of “Christmas Concert at The Pen” will be held on Sunday, December 4, 2022, 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at The Lobby of The Peninsula Manila.

  • The Peninsula Manila Relaunches “Naturally Peninsula”

    For the past 15 years, The Peninsula Manila has offered Naturally Peninsula, a collection of health-conscious and delectable menu options for guests dining at its restaurants. This year, as part of the Peninsula-wide Life Lived Best initiative, however, Naturally Peninsula has been relaunched with a new focus on plant-based cuisine.

    Xavier Castello
    Xavier Castello, Executive Chef of The Peninsula Manila

    “Supporting the health of our guests, deliciously, has always been the mission of Naturally Peninsula,” says Xavier Castello, Executive Chef of The Peninsula Manila. “But now we are setting ourselves a higher goal – to support the health of the planet, as well.”

    Naturally Peninsula Soba Noodle Salad

    The new plant-based dishes – which use locally sourced produce, nutritious oils, and non-refined sugars – reflect The Peninsula Manila’s (and her sister hotels in Asia, Europe, and the United States) ongoing commitment to increased sustainability. By prioritizing meat-free, organically, and naturally-produced ingredients from local producers and suppliers, the Naturally Peninsula offerings aim to simultaneously benefit the hotel’s local communities and reduce its collective environmental footprint.

    START THE DAY RIGHT

    The Peninsula Manila highlights breakfast as the meal where it offers most of its Naturally Peninsula dishes. “We believe that having a healthy and nutrition-packed meal is a great way to start the day,” says Executive Chef Castello. “These healthy breakfast items can be paired with our healthy green smoothies which change from day-to-day and are known as ‘Our Daily Greens’”. 

    Naturally Peninsula Pancake 1.2
    Naturally Peninsula Zambales Mangoes and Oats Pancake (with blueberry compote)

    Breakfast at The Lobby includes an excellent selection of both sweet and savory plant-based dishes including Tofu Scramble Burrito (spinach, kale and brussels sprouts), Avocado Toast (avocado mash, mesclun, shaved radish, cucumber roll on homemade sourdough bread) and a Poached Pear Salad (cherry tomato, basil, olive, mesclun, and sprouts topped with Mandarin orange vinaigrette), and Zambales Mangoes and Oats Pancake (with blueberry compote), to name just a handful.

    EAT RIGHT THE REST OF THE DAY

    All-day dining at The Lobby, In-Room Dining and the à la carte menu at The Pool Snack Bar offers a cornucopia of dishes predominantly prepared using local ingredients, including Beetroot Carpaccio (grapefruit, candied walnuts, and radish), Soba Noodle Salad (edamame, carrots, cucumber, radish, Mandarin oranges, sesame-ginger dressing), Kimchi Brown Rice Bowl (malunggay or moringa, nori and scallions), Mushrooms al Ajillo (cauliflower purée, garlic confit, and chili oil), Oven-roasted Bukidnon Pineapple (served with compote, locally-grown lacatan banana-passion sorbet, pineapple chips), Citrus Carpaccio (mango sorbet, lime granité, and a lemon curd cigar), and an Orange Polenta Cake (topped with honey syrup).

    Naturally Peninsula Tempeh Goreng
    Naturally Peninsula Tempe Goreng (pan-seared tempeh, garlic, coriander, turmeric, and sambal)

    The Peninsula Manila’s Spices restaurant has long been known for its Southeast Asian cuisine, most especially for its vegetarian and plant-based options which cater to guests who have strict dietary restrictions and who love savoury yet nutritious meals. But with the Naturally Peninsula iteration, all dishes are MSG-free and only low-sodium soy sauce is used in recipes that call for its inclusion. Purely plant-based selections include Pak Boong Fai deng (Thai wok-fried water spinach with yellow beans, chili, and light soy), Cauliflower Tikka Masala (roasted cauliflowerwith tomato, garam masala, coriander, and paprika), and Tempe Goreng (pan-seared tempeh, garlic, coriander, turmeric, and sambal).

    At the hotel’s popular all-day buffet restaurant Escolta, a salad bar offers a selection of fresh vegetables with healthy dressings. For those with a sweet tooth, homemade dairy-free ice cream made with raw sugar will soon be made available at the restaurant. 

    Naturally Peninsula Afternoon tea 1.1

    When it comes to the famed Peninsula Afternoon Tea at The Lobby, Watermelon Gazpacho with Grilled Cucumber Tofu Skewers, Ratatouille Parcels with Onion Chutney, Calamansi Bar, Baked Cream with Exotic Fruit Caramel, and their homemade Cranberry Scones with Lemon Curd and sugar-free Lichi-Strawberry jam are just some of the healthy and tasty goodies on offer.

    In the pipeline at The Peninsula Boutique are a selection of egg-and dairy-free pastries and cakes, as well as homemade kombucha.

    PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE HEALTH AND WELLNESS 

    Promoting health and wellness is a core principle of The Peninsula Manila. Now, more than ever, with the ongoing global crisis, sustainable health and wellness has become increasingly important, and so relaunching Naturally Peninsula is even more relevant.

    “With this new wellness program, we hope to break new ground in helping our guests to maximize their health and well-being while also helping to contribute to the local farming economy,” Executive Chef Castello says in closing. “We want to do our part to support local farms by partnering and sharing with them our Naturally Peninsula philosophy and purchase fresh, local, and quality produce that my team and I can use for cooking and seasoning.”

    The Peninsula Manila’s Naturally Peninsula offerings are an invitation and opportunity for guests to take time to take care of themselves, their communities, and the environment – concerns which are of paramount importance, especially today.
