They do get you down. No one is immune. O en, during
typhoon season, our city seems to be on the verge on
sinking, an automatic Atlantis, an unintentional – and
unpretty – Venice. en, we’re stuck at home or school or
the o ce, the roads impassable, a Grab nowhere to be found,
the waters too deep and dirty to cross, and we can’t even walk
to the faltering LRT or the overcrowded MRT.
In this issue, we o er the balm to the banes of our existence
in Metro Manila. Take solace in our favorite places for
uncomplicated comfort food that will surely replace stress
with a smile. A er all, it’s the simplest of dishes-- especially
those that bring back warm childhood memories-- that we
will always long for on cold stormy days: hot soups and
steaming rice and fried chicken and pork chops and pies and
cakes.
