The Aristocrat Restaurant in Makati: Home of the Best Chicken BBQ in Town
Recognized as one of the most popular restaurants in the country, The Aristocrat Restaurant has been serving delectable dishes at affordable prices since 1936. The restaurant traces its roots to a woman who is lovingly referred to as “Aling Asiang” who helped raise Filipino dishes to international standard.
Hailed as the “home of the best chicken barbecue in town” – The Aristocrat Restaurant is home to sumptuous eats that everyone will surely enjoy at any time of the day. The restaurant has over 10 restaurants across the country – one of which is their branch in Makati City.
Start off your meal with the Aristocrat Flying Saucer. The Flying Saucer is a toasted bread packet that’s filled with either adobo or cheese. While usually eaten as a snack or merienda, you can also eat this an appetizer if you’re feeling hungry!
It’s also worth noting that this particular dish takes inspiration from the trips that Aling Asiang’s family would take to Luneta Park. Seeing that most of the food served around the park were American fare, she decided to make her own version and used adobo as her palaman.
