Pasig Capitolio Expedition — Metro Manila's Hidden Gourmet Neighborhood
Capitolio in Pasig is Metro Manila's representative gourmet neighborhood, where entire residential alleys have been transformed into a street of restaurants. The alleys are narrow, so it is better to get off a Grab and explore on foot, and popular spots have waiting lines between 7 and 9 PM. While many places accept cards, be prepared with cash (pesos) for smaller establishments.
