Sofitel Christmas Eve Dinner Buffet vouchers

I know a lot of you are frantic about how Christmas is fast approaching. The most tedious part of all... the Noche Buena.

For some, its a fun, get-together activity for the whole family. But let's face it, preparing is such a tough job that most of us would have been dead tired the next day... which is Christmas day itself. That is why some families opt to eat out on Christmas eve. I'd say make it more special... dine with the whole family on a Christmas eve dinner buffet prepared by finest cooks of Sofitel Philippine Plaza!

For only Php1466 per person (valued at Php2933 or 50% off), the voucher already includes a sumptuous Christmas Eve Dinner Buffet.
