The Tatler Dining Guide Philippines
Las Flores
WHY GO
It evokes images of tapas bars in continental Spain—serving a variety of cold and hot paellas, cold cuts, and cheeses and buttressed by an extensive wine list (dominated by Spanish vineyards) and refreshing cocktail concoctions.
TATLER TIPS
Cold tapas like tartar de atun (tuna with pickles/capers steeped in olive oil) and boquerones (marinated anchovies) are excellent starters. The ensalada de salmon ahumado (smoked salmon on arugula with honey vinaigrette) is a healthy preamble to the entrées. A family group would benefit from the 1/2 de cochinillo asado estilo Segoviano. Order in advance as it takes about 40 minutes to serve. Also try the chuletillas cordero (lamb chops with red wine sauce). A delightful duo. • They serve the best crispy churros in town. Its allure is
amplified by warm chocolate and vanilla ice cream.
