The 38 Best Manila Restaurants | Eater
"When former electrician Rado Bautista lost his job at one of Manila’s oldest distilleries in 1994, he turned to food to make ends meet. Today, his side street eatery is a favorite among the residents of Tondo, one of Manila’s oldest and most densely populated districts. He’s known specifically for tumbong soup, a clear broth served with pig’s large intestines, spring onions, and garlic. Bautista’s creamy version goes for about P125 (about $2.20) with a cup of rice. Rado’s also sells asado (sweet braised pork), kamto (beef brisket) soup, and crispy lechon kawali with grated papaya. Note: Simon Street can be challenging to find, but it’s roughly two blocks down from Ugbo, a food destination in its own right." - Toni Potenciano
