This year more than 30 restaurants join Epic Dining by Visa. The eight-month program offers gastronomic delights in four stages with rotating establishments to refresh the taste buds.

“Following the successful programs we ran in previous years, we decided to take this year’s program up a notch so our cardholders can enjoy more exciting, exclusive, and quality dining experiences,” said Stuart Tomlinson, Visa Country Manager for the Philippines and Guam.

For the launch of the program, world-renowned, star chef Hide Yamamoto hosted guests at his eponymous restaurant in City of Dreams where he showcased his culinary skills and came up with culinary treats from the restaurant’s sushi, teppanyaki and robatayaki stations.

The Hide Yamamoto restaurant is just one of the dining outlets and bars where cardholders can enjoy Visa’s signature VIP treatment, including discounts of up to 30% on meals and bottle purchases, and free entrance to exclusive bars, by simply presenting their Visa cards.
