We found a new fine-dining place, without the swanky prices, at In-Yō or inyo, located at Esteban Abada St. in Loyola Heights, near the busy Katipunan strip. We used to pass by the place quite often while taking the kids to their dorm in the area but we never had the chance to try the place out until recently. In-Yō offers “[tag]fusion cuisine[/tag]“, an overused and abused phrase, but in the case of In-Yō , its an apt description. Western and eastern cuisine is blended in new and delightful ways by chef Nino Laus and In-Yō (”yours”, in Tagalog) is a place one will surely keep coming back to. Noel used to work for Parallel 45 and Kai.
The place is a converted house and the decor is Balinese meets Filipino rustic, with a garden area and an enclosed, airconditioned section with a 2nd floor. You will be welcomed by amiable restaurant manager and part owner Cris Orocio.
