WHY GO
Champagne Room's glorious days may have passed, but no matter. Look beyond appearances and savour its Old World fare and sincere hospitality. A classic that will never go out of style.
TATLER TIPS
The tableside service makes it worth the slog through Manila's infamous traffic. Start with the Caesar salad— a hefty and delectable serving for sharing at an astonishingly reasonable price, followed by the house specialities— lobster thermidor or the rib-eye au jus served in traditional fashion with a hefty baked potato topped with sour cream and bacon bits the way Sunday lunches with the grandparents used to be. For sheer entertainment and another hint of nostalgia, what could be more fabulous than a baked Alaska flambé to bring back those warm and fuzzy memories.
