From returning favorites to emerging names, discover the restaurants and culinary talents of this year's selection of notable dining destinations across Manila, its environs, and Cebu.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Filipinos have long shared a special relationship with food, often placing it at the heart of everyday life. From celebrating grand occasions and sharing intimate dinners to simply gathering around a table for a Sunday lunch, food has always been about more than what is on the plate — it reflects our appreciation for connection, community, and tradition. This enduring sentiment has helped shape a rich culinary landscape that draws from the country’s diverse heritage while embracing new expressions of its flavors.&nbsp;
With the arrival of the Michelin Guide last year, this dynamic dining scene has gained another platform for recognition, bringing Filipino restaurants and culinary talents to the forefront of the international gastronomic conversation. Now returning for its second edition, the prestigious guide builds on this momentum, continuing to highlight the country’s flourishing food culture and the creativity pushing its growth.&nbsp;

Held at the Marriott Grand Ballroom in Newport World Resorts, the awarding ceremony saw the unveiling of the MICHELIN Guide Selection 2027 for Manila and Environs &amp; Cebu. This year’s list recognized 127 establishments across regions, with distinctions spanning one Two-star restaurant, nine One-star restaurants, 31 Bib Gourmand recipients, and 86 MICHELIN-Selected establishments — underscoring the consistency of the returning restaurants alongside the arrival of new additions to the selection.&nbsp;
Continuing its strong showing, Helm by chef Josh Boutwood retained its two-star status — making it the sole restaurant in the country with the distinction for two years running. Meanwhile, all eight restaurants that earned one-star recognition in the inaugural edition retained their standing, with FLOW emerging as the new addition to this year’s one-star recipients.&nbsp;

Beyond the stars, the guide's extending reach is also evident in its Bib Gourmand and Selected categories. The former’s awardees rose from 25 to 31, welcoming six new additions, while the latter’s roster increased from 74 to 86 restaurants. These expanded selections further showcase the breadth of the country’s dining scene, acknowledging establishments across a wider range of culinary styles and experiences.
In addition to restaurant distinctions, the MICHELIN Guide also presented its Special Awards, celebrating the individuals and talents shaping different facets of the restaurant industry. The MICHELIN Service Award went to Clyde Joshua Zafra of Tito Boy Pampanga, while Francis Lacson of Digamo received the MICHELIN Young Chef Award. Meanwhile, Ron Job Sanchez of Automat was recognized with the MICHELIN Exceptional Cocktails Award, and the new MICHELIN Opening of the Year Award went to Frances Tariga of Tadhana.
