THE DINING ROOM (Meisen Plates)

These Meisen Plates hanging on the walls come from a set of china that was custom made for banquets and parties. The original set is composed of forty (40) different hand painted designs, with no two plates that are identical. The original set has been divided and exhibited in the homes of the Legardas and their relatives, The Prietos, and the Valdes'.

THE DINING ROOM

Dinner at La Cocina de Tita Moning is a "dining experience". Our guests get the chance to dine with the Antique China, Glassware, and Silverware. The meal is served in the manner in which banquets and parties were served during the turn of the century. Everything from the gracious servers, the table décor, and the food served contribute to helping our guests step back in time and experience the elegance and refinement of a gracious era Manila may have otherwise forgotten.
