It’s a weekend of extremes, from cerebral cocktails to playful Filipino-French fusion, from outdoor Thai street eats to high-concept sushi. Whether you’re dressed for a speakeasy or sweatpants in a park, flavor takes the lead.

Why go: This two-night pop up by Chefs Jeff Le Bon and Wado Siman, reimagines Filipino-French dining with dishes like bougie dinakdakan and cocktails kissed with batwan. It’s storytelling with a chaser of irreverence. Pro tip: Ask about the kinilaw tartare. It’s not on any colonial map.

What: Quinary bar takeover at Ruby Wong Godown Bar 

Where: Ruby Wong’s Godown Bar, Admiral Hotel Manila 

When: June 26 and 27, 8 PM to 12 midnight 

Why go: For two nights only, Quinary—one of Asia’s most influential bars—brings its multisensory mixology to Manila. Think cocktail theater, with Don Papa Rum, jazz vinyl, and even tattoo artists.

Pro tip: Try the cocktail inspired by Negros made with brown butter fat-washed Don Papa Masskara

What: Thai Festival Manila 

Where: Legazpi Active Park, Makati 

When: June 28 to 29, all day 

Why go: The annual Thai Festival turns the park into a Bangkok street scene: fruit carving, dance performances, pad thai, and more durian than you're prepared for.

Pro tip: Go early for mango sticky rice and shady picnic space. Stay for the special film screening and Muay Thai demos.

Where: Hua Yuan, Hilton Manila 

When: Until August 31 

Why go: Chef Kevin’s nostalgic tasting menu revisits his culinary coming-of-age, from spiced salted duck to scallion oil noodles that whisper of late nights and first loves. 

Pro tip: Order the dishes in pairs and ask your server for the memory behind each. This isn’t just dinner; it’s oral history.

5. Sushi, Sculpted Like Fine Jewelry

Where: Yamazato, Hotel Okura Manila 

When: Until June 30 only 

Why go: Precision, balance, and a little bit of show-off: from Four Braid Hamachi Nigiri to Wagyu and Foie Gras Maki, this is sushi as performance art. 

Pro tip: End with the Melon Cheesecake Maki. Yes, it’s dessert. Yes, it’s a maki. No, you shouldn’t skip it.
