Manila


Set in a reconstructed Spanish–era house, this is fine dining of the stiff-upper-lip variety. Traditional Spanish Filipino dishes like paella join salmon, duck and lamb chops on the menu, which turns over monthly.

The attached Kuatro Kantos Bar (open 8am to 6pm) is a less-formal coffee shop with art posters on its walls.
