Want To Dine Out This Holy Week? Here’s A List Of Restaurants That Are Open on March 29 to 31

It’s that time of year when Metro Manila’s heavy traffic and busy establishments rest for a while. While it’s also the season for prayer and reflection, it is also the best time to take advantage of the traffic-free streets and dine out in any of the city’s most popular restaurants.

Here’s our list of select restaurants open on Holy Thursday (March 29), Good Friday (March 30), and Black Saturday (March 31):
