I love the selections at Food Exchange. I've dined here a couple of times before, and what I especially like about the restaurant is the fact that the selections are well thought-of, a collection of all the good stuff that doesn't overwhelm in number. Not to mention the fact that the rates are very affordable. The kare-kare is a must-try; Novotel’s rendition has both beef meat and tripe, vegetables, and sweet-salty bagoong that makes each mouthful even more delicious. The peanut sauce was not as thick as I’m used to, but was, flavor-wise, spot-on. There's also a seafood version but I wasn't able to try it. The Pampanga-Style Asado brought memories of my Lola's cooking: instead of cubes, tender, thinly sliced pork is used.
For Food Exchange regulars, worry not as its signature Indian dishes are still offered. For first timers, try the Gol Gappa—an Indian street food consisting of crisp puff balls with a filling consisting of potato, masala, spiced water, and a bunch of other spices—as well as the tikkas and biryanis. Not to be missed also is the restaurant's seafood and carving station, as well as the dessert section.
