  • New Restaurants to Check Out this January 2018
  • It’s a great time to welcome new restaurants in Metro Manila! New year, new food to tickle your taste buds. If you’re looking for a new way to excite your appetite afresh, here are the newest restaurants and cafes in the metro that are worth checking out ASAP!

    Bench Cafe
    Bonifacio High Street

    Sisig Lettuce Cup (Php 239)

    Bench Cafe looks nothing like a local eatery in the Philippines, but that’s actually where this new homegrown restaurant by the Bench Group got its inspiration. It’s called “glamorized turo-turo.” You’ll find a lot of our well-loved Filipino home-cooked meals like inasal, adobo, and caldereta in set meals called BENCH/TO. Their special coffee beverages are also something to fall for.

    Caramelized Apple Omelette (Php 360)

    La Mère Poulard is a fresh new name in Metro Manila but is already fondly loved in France. This restaurant is known for its omelets that are puffy and frothy, an original recipe that has been treasured for over a century. While they specialize in simple and authentic French food, you can also enjoy locally-inspired dishes that are cooked the French way.
