Philippines’ Best Restaurants 2010: Philippine Tatler’s Ultimate Guide to Dining Out

scan0001

It is finally here. The Philippine Tatler’s Philippines’ Best Restaurants Guide Book 2010. This year, the Philippine Tatler did away with the usual cocktail at the Manila Polo Club or hotel. The generous people behind the Philippine Tatler and American Express Selects have collaborated to bring us the Best Restaurants Charity Week. Beginning on August 13 to 20, 64 of the country’s best restaurants have joined the effort by creating special menus and have pledged 10 percent of their gross earnings from these menus to Hands On Manila, non-profit organization that does volunteer work with public school students in both elementary and high school.

So what’s with the food porn? The launch was held at the Shang Palace, Makati Shangri-la Hotel. They served the best tasting dim sum I have ever tasted in my whole life. (Only means I haven’t eaten that much good dimsum. Touche.) Incidentally, the Shang Palace is included in the list of best Philippine restaurants. They have a Dim Sum luunch buffet priced at P810.00 + per person. You must try it. I’m going back there for my birthday, which happens to be this month. (Good God I’m turning 40!) Well I know that the pleasure brought by the wonderful Dim Sum of Shang Palace will make me feel 25 again.

    Hi this really is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you need to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a weblog soon but have no coding understanding so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
