1 Day in Manila Itinerary for Foodies, Manila, Philippines

You have 1 day in Manila; how are you going to spend it? By following this 1 day in Manila Itinerary, it will be delicious!

You’ll start by basing yourself out of Makati, Metro Manila’s hip and stylish hub of restaurants, bars, coffee shops and malls. Kick off the day with a traditional Filipino breakfast. Explore this walkable neighbourhood and take in the sights before lunch. For dinner, you will be eating at a Michelin Guide recommended restaurant. Finish the night by sipping on expertly prepared cocktails in a speakeasy. 

Enjoy your breakfast while gazing at Manila from the 32nd floor of Firefly Roof Deck. This hotel’s restaurant has one of the best views in Makati and serves breakfast all day. 

The Pinoy breakfast at Firefly Roofdeck combines the proteins from 3 traditional Filipino breakfast dishes into one plate. You get Milkfish, Tapsilog, and Tocino, alongside your Garlic Rice. There are Western breakfasts as well if you are like my daughter, and can’t stand rice for breakfast.  ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
