Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    I checked, Apparently a Chinese Restaurant is now it.

    To call the Pearl of the Orient simply a 'Chinese restaurant' does not do it justice because they offer a variety of cuisines from all around the South East Asia region.

    But really, A Spanish missionary called the Philippines the "Pearl of the Orient Sea", a title which was in turn popularized by Apolinario Mabini and Dr. Jose P. Rizal, the country's national hero, in their revolutionary writings in the late nineteenth century.
