The highlight of this year’s Sugbusog at Café Marco is seafood. A large selection of shrimps, prawns, clams, shellfishes, squids and fishes were added on the main course section of the buffet. Guests can pick their seafood and have it cooked the way they like it. You can have it grilled, fried and even cooked in soup.
