Founder and executive chef Nicco Santos cooks a changing dinner tasting menu here with executive sous chef Quenee Vilar and beverage director Pamela Begre, on the third floor of Comuna on Pablo Ocampo in Makati. He brings two decades of Asian cooking, and the MICHELIN inspectors note influences from Japan, China and Singapore, with dashi, fermentation and smoke. The room is dark and black toned with an open kitchen. The name means appetite in Malay.
