“If we are ever to enjoy life, now is the time, not tomorrow or next year. Today should always be our most wonderful day.”
— Thomas Dreier
Distinguished personalities from the social, business and diplomatic communities recently gathered for the grand Swiss Alpine Festival at the five-star Marco Polo Plaza Cebu (MPPC). Held at the hotel’s premier outdoor dining facility, the Garden Terrace — the fascinating affair led by affable GM Hans Hauri and lovely wife Bo had guests delighting in a splendid night of rich Swiss culture and flavors. Honorable guests Consul of Germany Dr. Franz Seidenschwarz and classy wife Elizabeth, and Consul of Spain Jaime Picornell and sophisticated wife Cecilia, were among those seen enjoying the delectable Swiss feast of cheeses and sausages, raclette and cheese fondue and other staples prepared by brilliant MPPC executive chef Luke Gagnon. When it comes to hosting special events and celebrations, only the Marco Polo Plaza Cebu can make the experience world-class!
