Welcome to Foodie Finds! This is an article series by Tatler, chronicling where and what to order according to the food-obsessed.
I myself have never understood non-foodies. How can one not love flavours, spices, aromas and all the cultural nuances and memories that come with every bite? Dining is an experience meant to be savoured and is even more fun when shared with loved ones. Dining around a table means sharing, conversing, bonding and learning. A dish can tell you so much about a person, a culture, and a country. It speaks volumes of a nation's history and is an art-form on its own. Skilled hands are trained over years or are born out of pure passion and practice. Professional chefs and home cooks alike, from young stars to grandmothers, have been cooking up meals filled with emotion and have truly made us foodies, happy.
Through Foodie Finds, we ask our epicurean friends to share their favourites. In this feature, we tackle takeout and delivery. Hear what food editor, author, Philippine Daily Inquirer columnist, and culinary consultant Angelo Comsti has to say. He shares his go-to shops for takeout here:

Nothing satisfies like home-cooked heirloom food spiced up with beautiful stories. That’s exactly what Mommy Dolor’s Kitchen by the Yang brothers has been offering since 2017. They have fiesta hamonado, which is like a roulade with sweetish pineapple sauce, rellenong bangus, tortang ali-masag, and stuffed squid. Apart from that, you can also order from their curated list of Malabon’s specialties like Hazel’s puto pao, Betsy’s soft broas, and Aling Mely’s mechado, which is the best I’ve ever had.
