Traditional Sweet Dishes

halo-halo

halo-halo

Halo-halo literally means 'mix', it evolved from Japanese shaved ice and Filipino sweet preserves, and today its rainbow layers topped with leche flan or ube ice cream are a summer symbol across Manila.

leche flan

leche flan

Leche flan in the Philippines is denser and richer than its Spanish cousin because cooks use many egg yolks and condensed milk, and it is traditionally steamed in a tin mold called a llanera for a silky, custardy texture.

ube halaya

ube halaya

Ube halaya is a vivid purple jam made from purple yam, its color and nutty-sweet flavor turned it into a signature ingredient that elevates everything from halo-halo to pastries and ice cream.

Traditional Savory Dishes

adobo

adobo

Adobo is more a method than a single recipe, vinegar and soy sauce preserve and flavor meat, and nearly every Filipino family in Manila guards a version they call their own.

sisig

sisig

Sisig began as a resourceful Kapampangan dish made from pig's head and ears, it was revived as a sizzling, tangy bar favorite in Manila and is often finished with a raw egg on the hot plate.

lechon

lechon

Lechon, a whole roasted pig with crackling skin and juicy meat, is the unmistakable centerpiece of Filipino fiestas and its carving announces celebration across Manila.

Traditional Beverages

sago't gulaman

sago't gulaman

Sago't gulaman pairs chewy tapioca pearls with jiggly agar jelly in a sweet brown sugar syrup, it became a beloved street drink because it is both refreshing and texturally playful.

buko juice

buko juice

Buko juice is the clear, slightly sweet water from young coconuts, sold straight from halved shells by vendors and prized as a natural electrolyte on hot Manila days.

tuba

tuba

Tuba is freshly tapped coconut sap that ferments into a mildly alcoholic palm wine, it has long been woven into Filipino rituals and fiestas and can be distilled into the stronger spirit lambanog.
