1. Sentro 1771

Sentro

Instead of the traditional meat used in your classic sinigang, Sentro uses premium cuts of corned beef. The meat is cured for three to five days, and served with fresh vegetables with a sour-savory broth.

Price: Sinigang na Corned Beef PHP 595
Location: Ground floor, Greenbelt 5, Ayala Center, Makati City
Hours: 11AM to Midnight

2. Bullchef

Bull Chef

This Kapitolyo hotspot’s version marries the two best Pinoy comfort dishes -- bulalo and sinigang. The genius invention simply adds our favorite part -- the bone marrow -- and adds it to the perfectly sour sinigang broth.

Price: Asimbull (Meal - PPH 275, Solo - PHP 265)
Location: 4 East Capitol Drive, Kapitolyo, Pasig City
Hours: 11AM to 5AM

3. Abe

Abe Restaurant

Known for adding unique twists on kampangpangan classics, Abe takes sinigang to the next level by using ube (purple yam) as the thickening agent for the broth. More than just its striking color, the ube adds a interesting sweet touch to the tartness of the broth.

Price: Sinigang sa Ube (PHP 495)
Location: Ground floor, Serendra, 11th Avenue, Taguig
Hours: 11AM to 3PM, 5PM to 11PM

4. Little Quiapo

What’s great about Little Quiapo’s sinigang na baboy is its simplicity. It’s exactly how your mom would make it at home, and most of the time, it’s just what you need.

Price: Sinigang na Baboy (PHP 285)
Location: 90 Malakas St, Diliman, Quezon City
Hours: 7AM to 10PM

5. Empacho

Empacho

Borrowed from the original Baguio recipe, Empacho’s sinigang comes with slices of strawberries that add a sweet element to the tamarind-soured broth. The dish also features tender cuts of smoked lechon belly mixed with traditional sinigang elements such as eggplant and gabi.

Price: Sinigang na Lechon with Strawberry (PHP 490)
Location: 2nd floor unit 201, 170 Tomas Morato Ave, Diliman, Quezon City
Hours: 11AM to Midnight

6. Wooden Spoon

Wooden Spoon

Sandy Daza’s recipe takes some elements from the Thai, Tom Yum, which has a distinct aroma of mixed herbs and spices. More on the sweeter side, the soup comes with a generous mix of your favorite seafood and vegetables.

Price: Sinigang Lamandagat (PHP 375)
Location: P1 Power Plant Mall Cor. Estrella St., Rockwell Drive, Makati City
Hours: 11AM to 9PM (weekdays), 10AM to 10PM (weekends)

7. Mamou

Mamou

Though Mamou is more popular for their steaks and truffle pasta, their elevated version of this Filipino staple is a must try. In true Mamou fashion, instead of using regular pork, they use melt-in-your-mouth kurobuta (Japanese black pig). The fatty pieces of meat perfectly highlight the thick tamarind based broth, and crisp country vegetables.

Price: Kurubota Sinigang (PHP 475)
Location: Serendra, 26th St., Fort Bonifacio, Taguig
Hours: 12PM to 3PM, 6PM to 10PM

8. Corazon

Corazon

If you’re the type who enjoys the satisfying sensation of sipping ultra sour broth, then Corazon’s version of sinigang is worth a try. On top of the staple sampaloc based broth, their sinigang na hipon recipe includes long slices of green mango.

Price: Sinigang na Hipon with Mangga (PHP 430)
Location: Level 4, East Wing, Shangri-La Plaza, Ortigas, Mandaluyong City
Hours: 11AM to 9PM

9. Locavore

Locavore

Sinigang purists might find Locavore’s sizzling version a little shocking, but once they try the perfectly sour gravy, they’ll wonder why they didn’t think of this masterpiece themselves. The deconstructed sinigang comes with beef short ribs, sampaloc gravy, french beans, and garlic confit.

Price: Sizzling Sinigang (PHP 550)
Location: 10 Brixton Street, Kapitolyo, Pasig City
Hours: 11:30AM to 1AM

10. Manam

Manam

Famous for their take on classic Pinoy comfort food, Manam’s slight deviation from the traditional sinigang recipe does not disappoint. The sinigang comes with the standard sampaloc based broth, short ribs, and greens, but with the added bonus of sliced watermelon that adds a refreshing sweetness to the soup.

Price: Sinigang na Beef Short Ribs & Watermelon (Small PHP 245, Medium PHP 455, Large PHP 775)
Location: Level 1, Greenbelt 2, Ayala Center, Greenbelt, Makati City
Hours: 7AM to Midnight
