1Binondo
You're invited on our evening feasting tour around Binondo, Manila. It's a carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of professional food guides. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, & the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian diets sorry, as there would be 4-5 less tastings. ✖️ Unsuitable for severe allergies, halal and celiac diets, due to the risk of traces & cross-contamination. If you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!

As dragons cling onto lamp posts, and incense burns next to Christian crosses, evenings in Binondo are historic vs cyberpunk, with spaghetti wires hanging over narrow streets where the jeepneys chug along - a world apart from the steel and glass skyscrapers of modern Makati.
