Lampara isn’t your typical, boring Filipino restaurant, thanks to its menu that’s a testament to culinary creativity and innovation.

Though everything is a killer on the menu, we highly recommend Lampara’s Lamb Shank (Php 1450), a hearty and flavorful take on balbacua. The star ingredient in the Visayan stew is usually beef or innards, but the chefs here use lamb shank, which is sous-vided for several to extract and develop the flavors from the meat. This slow cooking process results in tender, fall-off-the-bone meat that’s fragrant, savory, and perfectly delicious. This, plus the combination of stewed black beans, sundried tomatoes, flavorful saba, and aromatic spices in the sauce result in a delectable dish.

To those who have a sweet tooth, try the Saging (Php 300). The moment you take a spoonful of this divine creation, you’ll be blown away by the goodness of the sou-vided saba and the lusciousness of the banana cream cheese, with subtle notes of rum. The banana boba adds a nice pop, while the three-seed tuile adds a crunchy texture to the dessert.
