Makansutra – The look and feel (Part 1)

I have been in Singapore late last year, now misses Singaporean/Hawker style foods and have decided to get a feel of Singapore again and have a taste of their authentic cuisines in Makansutra. Makansutra Asian Food Village is located in the 2nd floor of Manila Ocean Park in Luneta, Manila. It has been a long time since I last visited Luneta Park and it really looked different now that Manila Ocean Park has been built just behind the Quirino Grandstand. Last night, I was just like a tourist in my own place… hehe. Getting inside Makansutra gives you a feeling you are in a different environment/place but not Singapore because it doesn’t look like this. I think the look of Makansutra is more on the classic and elite style of hawker foods.

Overall, I love the place and its ambience. Interior design is very well thought of as well as all the facilities used. Here are some pictures of Makansutra, able to get these after being approached by the management several times (more than 4 times? ) and reminded that taking pictures is not allowed. It was a bit disappointing that they would not allow pictures and videos even taking pictures of our ordered food. I really don’t get the management’s view on this and I would not recommend anyone to celebrate their birthdays or any special event in Makansutra and surely you won’t have souvenirs of it.

Hi…Is it required that you must first pay the entrance fee for Manila Ocean Park before you can enjoy the hawker style food in Makan Sutra?

Hi Bong, no you don’t have to pay any entrance fee. Makansutra is located on the other end of the Manila Ocean park mall. You can visit the place anytime just have to go inside the mall. Thanks!
