TATLER TIPS
The à la carte menu offers a mélange of gastronomic treats from East to West. Order a variety to complete your culinary journey. While the restaurant takes pride in its chapchae (thinly sliced beef tenderloin on glass noodles with a sesame oil-based sauce), an equal contender is the pancit luglug, their version of the well-loved Filipino rice noodle dish. Children and adults alike will definitely find the southern fried chicken irresistible. Paired with steamed rice, this old-time favourite is the perfect excuse to load up on carbs. A refreshing treat is the buko juice, plucked straight from the surrounding coconut trees and served in its original shell.
