(SPOT.ph) With our historical ties, Chinese cuisine is very close to the Filipino heart and stomach. It’s flavorful, balanced, and most importantly, perfect with rice! While large gatherings aren’t encouraged these days, if you’re looking to host a small (and socially distanced) get-together with friends or family and are looking for tasty and reliable Chinese fare, we’ve got you covered. Just be sure to follow health protocols!

10 Great Chinese Restaurants for Your Next Lauriat
These are the best Chinese restaurants in Manila for your celebrations:
Lung Hin
You can feast on classic Cantonese fare and fresh seafood in a relaxed but chic setting at Lung Hin, located at Marco Polo Ortigas Manila. They use the freshest ingredients to whip up dishes like the Deep-Fried Hong Kong Pigeon (P990), Lung Hin Signature Roasted Barbecue Pork (P888), and Stir-Fried Scallops in XO Sauce (P1,980).
Lung Hin is at 44/F Marco Polo Ortigas Manila, Sapphire Street corner Meralco Avenue, Ortigas, Pasig City.
Peking Garden
Looking for swoon-worthy peking duck that’s well worth every penny? Peking Garden has pretty much perfected their version (P3,200/whole bird, additional P500 for two ways), as is evident in its crisp and glossy skin and flavorful meat that hardly needs any sauce. There’s more to this 25-year-old restaurant than its Peking Duck, though; you’ll want to save room for their other specials, like the Braised Whole Abalone with Oyster Sauce (P2,200/piece), Scrambled Egg White with Minced Fish and Dried Scallop (P650/small, P975/medium, P1,300/large), and more.
Peking Garden is at Level 4 Greenbelt 5, Ayala Center, Makati City.
Summer Palace
Summer Palace is EDSA Shangri-La’s answer to the call for excellent Cantonese eats as they serve a variety of dishes from Southern China. From the humble Steamed Pork Siomai with Shrimps (P240) to the more grand Sautéed Fresh Peeled Crab Meat and Scallops with Egg (P1,260/small, P1,890/medium, P2,520/large) and Grilled Lamb Rack with Cumin, “Mongolian style” (P800/small, P1,200/medium, P1,600/large), you can expect nothing less than the best here.
Summer Palace is at EDSA Shangri-La, Manila, 1 Garden Way, Ortigas Center, Mandaluyong City.
