FOOD TO TRY OUT
WAI YING FASTFOOD
810 Benavidez St, Binondo, Manila
If you're looking for an authentic Chinese food at a very reasonable price, you can't go wrong with Wai Ying Fast food. They are open until 2AM. But be warned, you would have to brave the long queue.
SHANGHAI FRIED SIOPAO

Their fried siopao is so unlike any other siopao in town. The pork buns are fried to a crisp and are packed with flavor. It's cheap and good!
