Who needs a plane ticket out of the country when Aguirre Avenue already houses great Asian street food? For now, foodies can stay put and devour Tipsy Tvrtle’s tasty skewers. Aside from bringing in Indonesian, Thai and Japanese influences, they also offer twists on Filipino cuisine. A good example is the Isaw Inasal—a definite must-try.
Pair your stick picks with their Star (margarine) rice and the Poor Man’s Bailey’s (milo, milk and rum) for a guaranteed happy belly.

Remember the dark, gloomy day Sugi closed? “Huhuhu yes,” replied San Juan residents. Three years later, the expertise of Sugi’s Chef Tom is back in the neighborhood. That takes the scrumptious form of Tomo. Enjoy classic, well-executed Japanese dishes served in a modern, minimalist home. The house also features a Japanese-style garden that makes outdoor dining a good idea.

This diner is every grilled-cheese-addict’s dream come true. Try to keep your heart still as you choose among six exciting variants.
