The Noodle Studio<\/strong> is a restaurant that specializes in Asian noodles like pad thai, mee goreng, char kway teow, and Hong Kong noodles. The flavors you\u2019ll find are familiar and authentic with just the tiniest twist to cater to the Filipino palate. It\u2019s for<\/strong> foodies who love the vibrance of Asian cuisine. It\u2019s not<\/strong> for people looking for Italian-style pasta dishes. We recommend<\/strong> the Yam Sam O salad, Pad Thai, and Bagoong Fried Rice. Our insider tip: <\/strong>don’t let the restaurant’s neutral and sophisticated interiors fool you – the food is anything but restrained. Each plate is a visual and flavor explosion!<\/p>\n

NIU is Vikings Buffet 2.0\u2013the interiors are more modern and luxurious, definitely an upgrade from its pioneer sister brand.

It even has function rooms for your private events. It’s for<\/strong> families, friends and even couples celebrating special occasions. It’s not<\/strong> for people with small appetites. We recommend<\/strong> you first check out all the food available so you can plan and pace your intake smartly. Our insider tip:<\/strong> Request for their ‘by order only’<\/strong> menu. Read more about NIU, here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"BITE

\n
BITE (Buffet in Time Espalanade) is the first to offer a time-based buffet experience in the Philippines. A unique concept that allows you to pay for the time you spend in the buffet<\/strong> rather than paying for a flat rate, and with over 35 dishes to choose from (and a lot of desserts) it\u2019s a sure sulit <\/em><\/strong>treat! It’s for<\/strong> groups looking for a sweet buffet deal. It’s not for<\/strong> people looking a quick meal. We recommend<\/strong> their Grilled Pork Chops with White Sauce (very addicting). Our insider tip<\/strong> is to try their Unli-time option for just \u20b1368\/head!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Vanderlust is a hidden restaurant serving up unique European pastries and dishes inspired from the owners\u2019 travels in Europe. It\u2019s for<\/strong> cafe lovers who want to explore unique new flavors of classic pastas, dessert, and more. It\u2019s not for<\/strong> those who want a fine dining experience. We recommend<\/strong> you try their Schneeballen, Cacio E Pepe Mushroom Truffle, and Schweinekotelett with Mustard Cream Sauce. Our insider tip:<\/strong> WiFi and sockets are available!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Olivia & Co seeks to become the go to place for a gourmet experience. They serve artisanal coffee and tea to compliment food inspired by various cuisines of the world<\/strong>. The international franchise hails from Singapore and by the looks of it, they’re taking Manila by storm. It’s for<\/strong> families, friends, and individuals getting some work done. It’s not for<\/strong> crazy drinking (though they do serve alcohol) and loud partying. We recommend<\/strong> the Laksa Pasta, Tokyo Wings, and the Passion Fruit White Chocolate Cheesecake. Our insider tip:<\/strong> The full out restaurant has free wifi and sockets that you can plug your devices into. Read out full feature here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Soru Izakaya is a modern Japanese restaurant<\/strong> offering innovative takes on cuisine classics. The culinary style is referred to as the “new Nippon” which translates to new Japanese. It’s for<\/strong> Japanese food enthusiasts craving a different approach to their favorite dishes. It’s not for<\/strong> loyalists to traditional Japanese cooking. We recommend<\/strong> their Nori Tempura, Oh Umi Maki, Matcha Cheesecake, and their Wasabi Cocktail. Our insider tip: <\/strong>Their rainbow art work is actually mayonnaise, so don’t forget to dip your maki!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Grape Escape is a wine lounge and kitchen <\/strong>and is the first of its kind in Maginhawa<\/strong>. They first made its appearance a year ago in the food park, StrEAT: Maginhawa. The owners wanted a more permanent place for people to socialize and enjoy wine<\/strong> so they opened this full-fledged restaurant in March 1. It’s a place for<\/strong> catching up with family and friends since there’s no wifi in the restaurant. It’s not for<\/strong> people who are on a strict diet. We recommend<\/strong> their salpicao, pork chop, polpette and blueberry tiramisu. Our insider tip<\/strong>: The restaurant serves unlimited wine!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
A Michelin-star awardee for its Tokyo branch, Tsuta Ramen offers their signature shio, shoyu, and miso ramen as well as sides and small rice bowls. It’s for<\/strong> ramen aficionados and amateurs alike. It’s not<\/strong> for people looking for a wide menu with a varied selection. We recommend<\/strong> the Char Siu Ajitama Shoyu Soba. It’s on the pricey side of ramen but so worth it. Our insider tip:<\/strong> get that extra Ajitama. You know you want to.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
Kko Kko is a modern Korean chicken house<\/strong> that uses traditional and contemporary recipes that came from Grace Lee and her mom. Their menu is divided into three main categories \u2013 Korean Fried Chicken, Korean Street Food, and Dosirak (Korean lunch box) \u2013 each narrating a story about the dining setting and customs of Korea. It’s for<\/strong> foodies looking for new and unique Korean dishes. It’s not<\/strong> for people looking for grilled Korean BBQ. We recommend the Chicken Cheese Fondue, Snow Chicken Cheese, and Galbi Jim Dosirak. Our insider tip<\/strong> is the place is quite small and may get full quickly on peak hours, so make sure to book a table ahead of time. Fun Fact:  <\/strong>Kko Kko was named after the sound that a chicken makes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
