Wildflour Caf\u00e9 + Bakery offers international fare and specialty pastries<\/strong>, famous for being the first purveyor of the wildly popular cronuts in Manila. It\u2019s for <\/b>people who enjoy breakfast, brunch or lunch in a place that always reminds you of Sunday mornings. It\u2019s not for<\/b> office employees who want quick meals for their weekday lunch break. We recommend <\/b>their grilled cheese salad and soup combo, mushroom salad, pulled pork sliders and their bestselling kimchi steak fried rice. Don’t forget their \u00fcber moist to-die-for chocolate cake for dessert! Our insider tip <\/b>is to get pastries at 50% off after 7pm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

ArroZeria is a homegrown Spanish restaurant<\/strong> aims to create a higher standard of service and to provide good quality food using local ingredients. It is headed by Chef Chele Gonzales of Vask Tapas Room<\/a>. It’s for<\/strong> diners who can’t get enough of paella. It’s not for<\/strong> people trying to lower their carb intake. We recommend<\/strong> their Surf and Turf Board, Paella Valenciana and Paella Negra. Fun Fact<\/strong>: ArroZeria means ‘home of the paella’. Check out all 8 new signature dishes here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hey Handsome is a hip Peranakan<\/strong> restaurant famously headed by Chef Nicco Santos of Legaspi Village cult favorite, Your Local<\/a>. In case you didn’t get the memo, Peranakan cuisine is a combination of Chinese ingredients and Malay\/Indonesian spices. It’s for <\/strong>foodies with curious palates. It’s not for<\/strong> people who prefer traditional Asian dishes. We recommend <\/strong>their Bebek Penyet (duck), Kambing Buah Keluak and Nasi Lemak. Fun fact: <\/strong>The restaurant name came from the “friendly greeting uncles and aunties would give to customers lining up for food in Singapore”, as reported by CNN Philippines. Check out our full feature here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

True to its name, Locavore serves only locally grown and produced Filipino dishes with a French touch,<\/strong> curated by Chef Mikel Zaguirre. It\u2019s for<\/strong> people who enjoy a good twist on local classics. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> intimate occasions. We recommend<\/strong> their signature Sizzling Sinigang, Lechon & Oyster Sisig, and the underrated Ginataang Kalabasa. Also check out their new Duck Lugaw Foie Gras, Champorado ni Speedy and Beef Silog. Our insider tip:<\/strong> Their special brunch menu is only available at this branch for now. Service starts at 9AM.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Lava is a proudly local bakery serving Japanese-inspired cheese tarts <\/strong>made with artisan cheeses. It’s for<\/strong> dessert enthusiasts with a preference for all things local. It’s not for <\/strong>people looking for full meals. We recommend<\/strong> pairing their cheese tarts with their specialty coffee, sourced from local coffee bean growers.

Named after an American celebrity Chef, Todd English offers food from all over the world<\/b> in an upscale food hall setting. It has 9 different food stations including: salad & charcuterie, sushi, raw, Asian, pizza, pasta, grill & ocean, and the wine & tapas bar. It\u2019s for <\/b>people who like big menus or want to eat in a big group. It\u2019s not<\/b> for <\/b>dieters who are vulnerable to temptation. <\/b> We recommend <\/strong>their Fig & Prosciutto flatbread, truffle pasta, T.E. Porkchop and Torched Nigiri Stairs. Our insider tip:<\/b> They’re open until 11pm, perfect if you\u2019re getting a late dinner after a movie date.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Va Bene (which means \u201cit\u2019s good\u201d in Italian) has been named one Manila\u2019s best Italian<\/strong> restaurants one too many times and is known for serving fresh handmade pastas by Italian Chef Massimo Veronesi. It\u2019s for<\/strong> pasta lovers who can\u2019t get enough of perfect al dente pasta dishes. Portions are good for sharing, if you\u2019re not a big eater. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> people who hate carbs. We recommend<\/strong> Chef Massimo Veronesi\u2019s bestsellers, which are the Black Ink Tagliolini and Organic Eggs Tagliatelle. Even the complimentary bruschetta with salsa dip is good. Our insider tip<\/strong> is ask fir their chilli olive oil for a spicy kick. Read our full feature here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Shaburi is an all-you-can-eat healthy Japanese shabu-shabu<\/strong> from Japan that offers unlimited premium meats, fresh seafood, organic vegetables and a buffet of appetizers and other bites. Unlike other shabu-shabu restaurants that have one communal pot for cooking, Shaburi offers each guest their own personal pot. It\u2019s for<\/strong> big family or barkada dinners. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> anyone who don\u2019t enjoy eating quickly, there\u2019s a time limit. We recommend <\/strong>their value-for-money Shaburi Wagyu all-you-can-eat course. Our insider tip is:<\/strong> The same course menu should be selected by all customers in the same table.
