马尔加的城市度假

Woven tablecloths and ethnic-inspired music set the tone in this cosy place. Expect warm hospitality and classic Southern Mindanao cuisine, which uses spices, acidity and roasted coconut for rich, intense flavours, for example the generously sized tiyula itum stew with beef simmered in coconut broth for a hint of acidity and smoky aroma. The Dulang – an exquisite platter of seven dishes in tasting portions – provides an excellent and varied introduction.

Tucked away on a quiet street in the heart of Quezon, this Spanish restaurant has a green-tiled shopfront selling Spanish specialities and a few tables for casual dining. In a tasteful interior blending wood, patterned tiles and soft lighting for a relaxed yet polished feel, highlights include the ensaladilla de prawns and croquetas de jamón ibérico, best enjoyed with a glass of Spanish wine. The shaded terrace makes for an inviting spot in fair weather.

This cosy family-run spot serves home-style Taiwanese food. It is managed by a Taiwanese female chef who specially selects Taiwanese condiments such as soy sauce to recreate authentic Taiwanese flavors. The daily-changing spread includes 15-20 dishes. Don't miss the fried bihon – rice noodles stir-fried with pork and cabbage are topped with flavoursome minced pork to create a harmony of soy umami and vegetable sweetness.

With just 14 seats, this minimalist, grey-toned counter restaurant provides an intimate yet vibrant dining experience. Guests perch on comfortable raised seats facing a sleek open kitchen – dishes are presented directly by the chefs. The cuisine leans Japanese with global accents, showcasing top-quality ingredients and elegant contrasts; think hotate with dill and ube, or Wagyu nabe with ikura. A concise list of wine and sake has the perfect accompaniment.
