39 Favorites
\nReturning entry<\/p>\nPhoto from Booky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n \nChurreria La Lola, from the same group behind Rambla, is a dessert shop featuring this popular Spanish dough pastry: deep fried churros<\/strong>. They offer classic churros served with their signature Belgian chocolate dip and a variety of xuxos or stuffed churros, alongside summer Spanish drinks like horchata. It\u2019s for<\/strong> anyone craving a filling dessert or snack. It\u2019s not for <\/strong>people looking for lunch or dinner options. We recommend<\/strong> the Classic Churros with Hot Belgian Chocolate Cup or the Mixed Churros to get 2 flavors in one cup. Our insider tip: <\/strong>Check out their unique flavors like matcha, strawberry, and ube!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

89 Favorites
\nNew entry<\/p>\nPhoto from @hungrynyc<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n \nTim Ho Wan is one of the most affordable Michelin star-rated restaurants<\/strong> in Hong Kong. Its claim to fame? BBQ. Pork. Buns. It’s for<\/strong> fans of dim sum who only want the best of its kind. It’s not for<\/strong> diners unwilling to withstand long lines. We recommend the Spareribs Rice, Pork Dumplings with Shrimp, and their signature BBQ Pork Buns.

153 Favorites
\nReturning entry<\/p>\nPhoto from @itsbunboo<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n \nMy Kitchen by Chef Chris is one of the hidden gems in Malate serving European<\/strong> dishes by notable chef, Chris Locher. It\u2019s for<\/strong> tourists living in the area looking for a casual diner with a good ambiance. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> people dining on a budget. We recommend<\/strong> the Pannizza Kristina, Slow Roasted Lamb Ribs, and Tinlou Risotto.

It is a joint venture with the guys at Yabu. It\u2019s for <\/b>straight up ramen minus the fancy embellishments of modern cuisine. It\u2019s not for <\/b>people looking for an extensive Japanese menu, although special items are occasionally introduced. We recommend <\/b>their Shiromaru Motoji Ramen and the Pork Buns–plus the new Tsukemen Ramen. Our insider tip:<\/b> Cute \u201ckiddie sets\u201d may be requested for your little ones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
