Recently my friend Eric whom I haven't seen in a long time and who just found out I have a blog asked me what my favorite Persian restaurant, siopao, chocolate cake, etc were. That got me thinking and now I'm sharing them with you. These are my personal favorites. You may or may not agree so no hate mail please :-)
These are for places in Manila. I will update this list as I discover more places and products.
