蓝色度假酒店 by Oveecation Suites

With warm lighting, rattan chandeliers and wooden furnishings, this street-side restaurant offers a warm welcome. The chef, inspired by her mother's recipes and time working at a Chinese restaurant in Singapore, serves nuanced dishes from China, the Philippines, Taiwan and Japan. Seasonal specials appear often, so do ask. The cuapao ni cristina – fluffy buns with tender pork, crispy pig skin, peanuts and coriander – is a heartfelt, flavour-packed signature.

Near the airport, on the first floor of the Grand Wing Casino, amid gleaming boutiques and grand hotels, this elegant restaurant is a plush retreat from the bustle of Manila. Dark wood, designer seating, modern art and a chic bar exude warmth and energy; the open kitchen hints at culinary precision. Service is swift and polished; highlights include a decadent Beef Wellington, the Seafood Tower and a wine and cocktail list that is as smart as the setting.

Located in Newport City, near the airport, Yamazato promises a tranquil Japanese dining experience in a decor of warm wood tones. Choose between the main space, sushi counter or private teppanyaki room – each with its own chef and requiring advance booking. Signature dishes include Kurobuta kakuni and tamago yaki. Often with a celebration theme, the lunchtime bento box offers variety. Charming kimono-clad staff enhance the sense of occasion.
