Pala

Filipino food is very meat-heavy, but Pala breaks the mould by offering plenty of vegetarian options. This punchy little cafe has nailed the Filipino fusion experience. Expect brunch classics with a Filipino flare: think breakfast burritos stuffed with longganisa (sweet Filipino chorizo) and bowls packed with golden hummus, red atchara (Filipino pickled papaya) and topped with chicken inasal, liempo (grilled pork belly) or mushroom adobo.

And whether you’re an ube obsessive, or just keen on the Instagrammable hue, its ube latte and waffles with fried chicken and chilli-infused maple syrup are seriously delicious.
