For the dads who have everything: Check out Ember, Chef Josh Boutwood’s newest restaurant that just opened at Greenbelt 3 beside People’s Palace. It’s like a cross between the chef’s Savage and The Test Kitchen, but with its own distinct charm. Must-try dishes include a very hearty short ribs dish that can feed two—although it’s too good to share—a perfectly grilled octopus and turbot, too. Contact 0916-420.1600 to reserve.

For the dad who loves Spanish food: Shake things up a little and treat them for breakfast—take him to Bar Pintxos in Salcedo which just launched a new breakfast menu that’s available daily at the Salcedo branch. Must-try dishes are the Bacalao bocadillo—sweet savory bacalao spread on top of torrijas (Spanish French toast) finished with some honey and caviar—and the salpicao-like Salteado Ternera. Contact 0977-073.4737 to reserve.

For the dad who loves ramen: Treat him to chicken-centric ramen joint Ramen Marudori at 8 Rockwell. It’s from the same guys that brought us Yushoken and Mendokoro. They just added two new dishes last June 1 that are must-tries: the Super Chashu’s giant sized sibling Titan Tori Ramen with 300 grams of heavenly chicken on top and for the spicy tsukemen lovers the Karai Tokusei. Don’t forget to order a side of the (current) best gyoza in town—made with chicken, naturally, instead of pork. Like xiao long bao but loads better. DM @ramen_marudori on Instagram for more info.

For the dad who likes to collect bottles: Luisita Rum is a premium line of handcrafted rums produced from indigenous ingredients grown at the Hacienda Luisita Estate in Tarlac—which makes this the country’s first and only single estate rum. The Luisita Reserva which is the second expression from the brand’s blended series, is now available for direct purchases only (very limited bottles, we were told). It highlights the use of a complex blend of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry cask rums that’s at least four years old. DM @luisitarum on FB and IG to reserve a bottle.
