Which nearby streets are fine to walk at that hour and which ones should I steer clear of? Any tips for getting back to my hotel safely after?

jeepneys thin out after 9 so don't count on one, and keep your phone pocketed around the Robinsons Manila side where snatchers work the crowd.

yeah the phone thing is real, they work right outside the mall entrance too not just the crowd. honestly i'd just book a ride from the restaurant door after 10, less hassle than figuring out which side streets are lit

stayed near there last year, Remedios is fine at 10pm but skip the stretch toward Adriatico past midnight, just Grab back instead of walking.

if ur walking back late just stick to the lit stretch of Pedro Gil & skip the dark side streets off Mabini, trike drivers there overcharge tourists fyi

those trikes also run a "fixed" 150 fare after dark, so flag one only from the hotel side of Taft

id skip the hype & go for the crispy pata & laing, but expect a 20 min wait at noon since office crowds hit hard around 12

been there once on a trip, not a local. tbh the sisig and lechon kawali are the sleeper picks over the famous dishes. lunch rush peaks 12 to 1, so go 2pm for a calmer table.
