Manila is a bit of an enigma when it comes to cultural influences. They seem to take pages from every country imaginable, and their dining scene is no less confusing. However, they also have some of the best restaurants in Asia as a result.
Casa Roces
Casa Roces is the perfect blend of Spanish and Filipino cuisines. It’s a bit of a classier joint, but the upscale food here is worth the extra penny. The wines are pretty wonderful, too.
Spiral
Spiral gives visitors a taste of the world. It has dishes inspired by nations all over the world under one roof with an exquisite setting that makes you feel rich just being there. The seafood here is some of the best in the city.
Eng Bee Tin
It might seem odd pinpointing a Chinese restaurant in a Filipino city, but the guys at Eng Bee Tin offer their own spin on the classics that make it worth a try. The hopias, small Chinese cakes, are a great reason to stop in for a snack.
People’s Palace
People’s Palace is a favorite among tourists and locals thanks to a delicious fusing of popular Thai dishes with Filipino flair. The prawn spring rolls and crispy squid are some of the best offerings on the menu, so don’t be afraid to give them a try.
Pino Resto Bar
For true Filipino food, head to Pino Resto Bar. The chef here adds his own twist to the classic kare kareng bagnet making it something most visitors don’t want to touch to something they can’t help but devour.
