My favorite Filipino restaurant. First time visitors should order the crispy fried catfish with cucumber, mustard and tomato salad; the kare-kare (ox tail and tripe stew of peanut and toasted rice); chicharon with atchara. Finish off the meal with the best halo-halo in town (everything is homemade).

Visitors should try Mary Grace cheese rolls with a cup of hot chocolate. Sinfully delicious. Early risers must also try their breakfast platters. My personal favorite is the Vigan longganisa, garlic rice, and egg with a side of wansoy and tomato salad.

Anthony Bourdain hailed this gem of a restaurant as serving up the best pig in the world. Order the lechon, baked scallop with cheese, fried rice in crab fat, and the salad of crispy pork with mustard leaves for a local dining experience like none other. Avoid the long wait by going early (open starting at 10:00 a.m.) or calling ahead to reserve a table.

Poblacion has its fair share of night spots, but there aren’t many bars that have the same casual feel as Estée, which looks like a café you’d cozy up in after hours. It’s a great place to enjoy dessert and a glass of the Dame en Rouge—its signature spin on sangrias.

This easy-to-miss bar in Poblacion is a favorite among the artistically inclined; it regularly plays host to live music, spoken word performances, and visual arts events. Dulo offers some of the best-known cocktails in the area, and the Pork Belly Bao is a consummate crowd-pleaser.

A local pub that made it to the Asia’s 50 Best Bars lineup in 2016 was Alcohol By Volume (or ABV for short). This speakeasy is hidden inside Lazy Bastard, a vibrant diner-style hotdog and burger joint along Jupiter Street in Makati. Designed to make you feel like you’ve been teleported to Prohibition-era New York, ABV is calm and collected, with a number of tables that won’t go beyond 10. Just a little expert tip: Ask for a copy of the “Bible” if you want a more extensive list of cocktails and drinks.
