I love the lighting fixtures and other stuff made from rattan- so Filipino.. its very relaxing to the eyes and gives that homey ambiance.
Mesa Filipino Moderne offers authentic Filipino dishes with a twist. I was happy upon learning that most of their items, ingredients and the likes are sourced locally.
For our lunch, I ordered their specialty - the Crispchon or crispy lechon which they served in two ways; wrapped in pandan crepes added with wansuy, cucumber and leeks garnishes and choice of 3 sauces, and crispchon tossed in chili garlic.
