红门酒店 @ Caberto Mansion de Manila 公寓酒店

This bright, plant-themed house-turned-restaurant is a warm and cheerful setting with vibrant green touches and cosy charm. With no formal training, the chef expanded from a bakery to the current setup. The menu revisits Filipino classics in refined, eye-catching ways. Dishes are rich and hearty, with flexible portions for solo diners or groups. Don't miss the pork dinuguan with puto; its bold, savoury depth with a hint of sweetness makes for a memorable meal.

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.

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.

Inspired by the chef's travels, this relaxed restaurant transports you to Thailand with its modern take on Thai favourites. The minimalist setting with playful table and menu designs makes for a casual vibe. Classic dishes include papaya salad, pad thai and tom yum. Curry fans can enjoy the beef short rib or crab curries. The latter uses local crab, tender eggs and a touch of coconut milk. Order the mango sticky rice for a sweet, tangy end to the meal.
