The Tatler Dining Guide Philippines
Parilla La Cabrera
WHY GO
The closest thing to experiencing the flavours of an Argentinean grill in Manila, this franchise of a Buenos Aires classic is an ideal destination for meat lovers seeking a steak house with a Latin twist.
TATLER TIPS
Don't miss the provoleta ( grilled provolone cheese) for appetisers—its texture and intense flavour an ideal introduction to the mains—Argentinean special cuts. One cannot go wrong with the ojo de bife, its crusted surface giving way to the supple texture of the perfectly done meat; or for those seeking a healthier option, try the cuadril, where the thick strip of beef fat that lines the side of the steak can be easily set aside or furtively enjoyed. The dulce de leche sandwiched between layers of biscuit and topped with meringue is a must-try.
