BLACKBIRD

Once an international airport and a heritage library, the Nielsen Tower now houses chef Colin Mackay’s brainchild, Blackbird. An art deco bar greets guests upon entering, before reaching the picturesque doors that lead to the ambient grill room. One may enjoy contemporary Asian dishes for lunch or dinner here, or lounge at the al fresco area or garden for afternoon tea. Nielson Tower, Ayala Triangle, Makati Avenue, Makati city
